Successfully Selling Small-Batch Electronics

Vortrag

You’ve lovingly crafted your project into a product that you want to get out in the world. Now what? Find out what it takes to get your creation into the hands of hardware enthusiasts, and possible pitfalls to watch out for when dealing with sales, packaging, logistics, and the customer service.

This talk draws from many experiences from the Tindie marketplace, but the ideas apply to selling on other platforms like Etsy, eBay, your own site, and also crowdfunding platforms.

No previous experience required. Good for people thinking about selling maker products online, or who have just started. And for those who would like to find out more about Tindie and how they can reach its global community of buyers and sellers.
