… My best selling products are the vegan leather tote bags in all their sizes-small, medium, and extra-large as well as the different color and material combo zippered clutch bags. I do get a lot of custom orders as well since I love teamwork together with my customers combining my experience and their vision and wishes to create a unique piece based on their preferences and personal style.

… To be successful I think you need to be passionate about your product and give customers amazing customer service. I pride myself on replying quickly to customers and pouring my heart into my products. Other items that are important are the photographs that need to be eye catching and the key tag words that prospective customers would use to find your products.

… It took a few days to get my first sale, and it has grown exponentially since. My goal was always to make enough that I wouldn’t have to get a corporate job – and I achieved that goal. I have a manufacturing shop with a few employees to help sew and ship orders.
