Get Crafty
Does the hum of a sewing machine give you a thrill? Do you wield a pair of scissors like a pro? If you’re a maker, an artist or a crafter you could be earning additional income through Etsy!
Etsy Craft Entrepreneurship
The Missouri State University Small Business & Technology Development Center (SBTDC) is excited to partner with the University of Missouri Extension Taney County to bring a free, five-part program to the Branson area. The training will share how creative entrepreneurs can create and grow their own Etsy business.
Sessions are led by a seasoned Etsy seller who will share their experiences and expertise when it comes to selling goods on the platform.
The program will take place on five consecutive Tuesdays in September and October. Sessions will cover everything from building your craft brand to photographing your products. All sessions will be held from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at the OTC Table Rock campus located at 10698 MO-165 in Hollister, Missouri.
