EYF is on my bucket list! It's a long way, but one of these years I will see you there!

Your mind map looks good to me, Carolien.
But if you want to add some more things, what about people? Do you have helpers, people you cooperate with, mentors or anyone else important for your business? Plus you could add activities. How often do you post on instagram? What do you have to do for your products? Buy them wholesale, make them…[Read more]

I struggle with mind maps apparently… it's the first time (well okay class at the GPKP was the first time) I'm diving into this. This is what I have and I have no clue if this is what it is or if there should be more…

The wool and spinning podcast (run by Welford Purls) have a spin along for patreon subscribers. I've not participated, but there may be some information about how it works on her patreon page, and in the ravelry group.

It's really hard to front up and say that something you've invested so much in is not working. You've been really brave. Good luck.

In regards to using your name for your business: This was something I thought about a lot when I called my business Louleigh. A friend who worked in marketing advised me that my ‘in' crowd would know how to spell…[Read more]

Me! I'm coming. Would love to meet up.

Thanks Amy! Will keep that in mind. Your cards are very cute

I use a cheap lapel mic. It works really well. You can see it in shot, but it means that if I have something between me and the camera, I can still be heard clearly.

One of my pet annoyances about audio has to do with inserting music, other video and audio. This has to do with editing the volume on each clip so that you don't get blasted out by…[Read more]

Oh how I wish! It was in the planning (was saving up for it) but as it stands right now I'll probably need the funds and time for dyeing purposes. If I do manage to go I will definitely look up this thread again!

Are any of you going as vendors? I've been thinking of applying for 2018 once possible.

I don't do a ton of design work anymore (I've moved my biz more to fine art), but I could help if you can't find someone else. Print design fortunately hasn't changed nearly as much as web design! 😉

Hey Captains!
I haven't been asking for Guests on my blog for a bit, but I need to fill out 2017 and @riin-gill has asked for a reprieve until later in the year as she reorganizes her business.

If you want to be a guest you do not have to be a fiber-related business. I am just interested in Creative Businesses. Once you say yes, I'll send you…[Read more]

Good luck, Riin!

Everyone's comments are so thoughtfully and beautifully written. I could only add to allow yourself the time to close your business and feel some quietude for a little bit, letting go of what you no longer need while taking with you incredible life lessons. I think you will discover unexpected freedom and wisdom.

Beautiful and thoughtfully written, Jess.
