I could only dream of a paycheck someday...I put all my money I make back into
the business at this point however it is supporting itself right now which is
great for me. I do have another job and that is being a travel agent so I
don't need the income so much and my husband ranches.
I have been doing this for 2 years now started out slow with home machines and
then leaped into the Amaya last year. I keep busy through out the year with
the machine however I want to be busier so I dont have to worry if I am going
to have enough sales to make my machine payment for the following month.
I do local craft shows which are very small and even though they generate some
sales it isn't a huge money maker for me at this time. I do get alot of
special orders at them which is great.
I have a website as well that does great in sales and am also on Ebay.
I would love to be able to take the business to the next level whatever that
might be but am going slow right now as I don't want to get into debt with it
and I am doing fine right now....just need to think of new things to add to the
business is keeping me busy.
I must say that this past Xmas was my busiest I have been since in business
which has been great alot of craft shows and advertising was done to get that
however.
It takes time to get a business off and running so I would agree with Steve in
that don't have your husband quit his job just yet especially the way the
economy is right now.
Good Luck!
