743. What Stops Handmade Product Businesses from Hitting 1M (& How to Break Through!)
About this Episode
Is your handmade business making sales, but you’ve hit a ceiling? Good news, I’m about to share how to break through! In this episode, we’ll dissect the moment every product-based business owner hits when demand outgrows your personal capacity and you become the bottleneck. I call it the Breaking Point, and it’s exactly where scaling either happens… or stalls.
I’ll show you how to redefine what “handmade” means as you grow, identify what’s keeping your business stuck, and make the shifts needed to scale your physical product business without burning out. If you want to grow your handmade business (whether you make candles, jewelry, pottery, or any other handmade product) to $1M and beyond, it’s time to stop doing more and start building differently.
