Serious question - does anyone make an actual living with a jewelry brand?
Im asking this from a very uneducated position as I try to figure out if I can set goals for myself for my future. I want to also learn tips for success from those who really excelled at this during their life. I would like to know 3 things:
-
I guess it’s up to who ends up seeing this, but is jewelry making something that can pay well? not asking about being a smaller bench jeweler for small stores but more so being your own artist online and having a distinct style / brand.
-
does anyone here sell mainly from social media? if so how big is your following/brand? Is your brand more of a general custom style or is it branded and designed to be cohesive?
-
It would be great to know actual revenue numbers or what take home is month to month or year to year, if anyone is comfortable sharing. I think it could be educational and others would find this interesting as well. I hope these questions don’t come off as rude or offend anyone, I ask these questions with upmost respect for everyone’s grind. 💪
Thanks!
