Whether your goal is becoming a self-employed designer/craftsperson or pursuing furniture making as a means of generating extra income, this one-day seminar will be very useful. Where do you start looking for the type of clients that will allow you to develop your own style rather than simply make something they have seen elsewhere-but only cheaper? Simply put, the type of client you want to attract isn’t just buying a piece of furniture; they are buying you and your enthusiasm for your vision of what furniture might be. What are the key ingredients to developing a successful, meaningful, and financially viable career? How do I present myself? My design ideas? My portfolio? Michael will explain the importance of the personal attributes and the variety of skills you’ll need to develop to succeed right from the beginning. If your future includes developing a career as a designer or craftsperson, then Michael will help you develop strategies for survival leading to prosperity.
