#487 - How To Make Your First $1,000 Selling Custom Furniture

from Handmade Business Secrets Podcast · host Zach Vaught

Your first $1,000 selling custom furniture is the hardest money you'll ever make — and it has almost nothing to do with how good you are in the shop. In this video I break down exactly how to land your first paying customers, what to build (and what NOT to build) when you're starting out, how to price it so you actually make money instead of just covering wood, and the simple way to find people who are already looking to buy. If you've got tools, a little space, and you're tired of building stuff for free for family and friends, this is the roadmap to your first real sale. 📘 Download Zach's FREE eBook "Handmade Business Secrets" - your step-by-step guide to growing a profitable woodworking business: https://www.zachvaught.com/handmadebusinesssecretsbook 🚀 Ready to launch your custom furniture business?
