Book Review
Being a successful jewelry business woman, Viki Lareau has written this book to help out the rest of us. She shares with us what she has learned in this easy to read step by step format. The chapters cover things like getting started, pricing work, building a portfolio and more. She keeps things positive and shares encouraging stories from other successful jewelry businesses. I think this book is great for beginners to get them pointed in the right direction. It is definitely something you should read before to start selling your jewelry. There is so much that goes into selling your finished pieces it is hard to know where to start. If you are already trying to sell and not having an easy time of this book may be able to help you change that.
