This week’s Shopkeeper Story comes from someone near and dear to my heart: my best friend of 30 years, Katsie!
Katsie never considered herself a maker. But when her boss wanted custom-etched glasses for the company’s holiday party, she found herself learning a new skill. Now, Katsie regularly sells wholesale to retailers, at market events, and to individuals who want a beautiful custom gift.Katsie shared what makers should consider before taking on custom orders, why she continues to reinvest in new equipment for her business, and what she has learned as a member of the Shopkeepers Lab.
