Artist Life - My Interview with Jessica Rose about Selling My Work at Shows

Podcast: How to Grow a Jewellery Business through Fairs and Events (Audio)

2023 has kicked off with a busy start. I have been working on orders, applying to art shows, creating new designs and doing my first podcast interview with Jessica Rose — the founder of The Jewellers Academy. Before heading into my creative space I wanted to share my latest podcast interview, “How to Grow a Jewellery Business through Fairs and Events” (the podcast interview is above and video version below). I had so much fun doing the podcast and I hope all of the listeners will enjoy it.
