This workshop is designed to help participants understand how to determine the accurate cost price and the right selling price for their products and services. It is a practical workshop designed to get existing businesses to reflect and discuss how they currently cost and price their products and services. For new creative start-ups it is an opportunity to understand the factors that affect costing and pricing and to help them decide how best to structure their business model to address those factors. We will examine the real value of what a craft maker brings to their business and ensure that this value is reflected in the price.
