Program Schedule
Next Meeting: Monday january 16 @ 7:00 PM
Demystifying the financialsDo you have more jewellery than you could possibly ever wear, but can’t seem to stop making more? Did family and friends greet you with “That is beautiful! You should sell those!” over the holidays? Have you dipped your toe into the world of selling your work, or even been at it for a while, but are confused and confounded by “the money stuff”? Then we have the workshop for you!
Join us for Demystifying the Financials, presented by our treasurer, Alison Ellett, on Monday, January 16, 2017. We will begin with how to determine if business advice is actually addressed to you, explain why you don’t need accounting software, and give you the tools to act with confidence. You will leave with customizable spreadsheets that you can use to evaluate craft shows and teaching opportunities. This is a hands-on workshop designed to empower you. Have crafty friends who you think would benefit from this sort of information? The ideas presented are totally transferable. So bring them along! The class fee is a mere $5 for non-members. (It is a FREE evening for members!) .Register for this presentation
