How to Use Your Worksheet
- Choose a product. Start with one candle, soap, wax melt, or other handmade creation.
- Gather your costs. Include the materials and packaging actually used to make your batch.
- Give your time value. Calculate your labor and include a reasonable share of business overhead and selling expenses.
- Review your selling price. Use the worksheet to estimate your profit and decide whether an adjustment makes sense.
Indigo Maker Tip: A product can sell well and still leave you with very little profit. Remember to include your time, packaging, and those smaller expenses that are so easy to overlook. Your creativity and hard work have value!
A Little Reminder for Every Maker
Pricing isn't about choosing the lowest number or copying what everyone else charges. It's about understanding your costs, valuing your work, and building a business that can grow.
Revisit your worksheet whenever supply costs, packaging, labor, or selling expenses change. A little pricing check-in today can make a big difference tomorrow!
