Enjoyed this little book. Full of good ideas to get your business up and running. Especially good for the first time business person with no prior experience. Have enjoyed reading it and putting to use their suggestions.
 I disagree with the negative review left by Mongopop August 30, 2006

I have been in the jewelry making business for over 20 years. I teach jewelry making classes on a weekly basis. One of my students brought this book into class and I found it to be very informative.
Okay, so all I can say about Mongopop's review is "DUH". It says the book is for PROFIT...of course the book is going to focus on the business aspect for the majority of the book.
I come across many people that just do not have a creative talent or the ability to grasp concepts. Again...DuH....the book is helping people that probably already have a good base of knowledge about jewelry making. The book includes 8 year old instructions, because most beginnners NO MATTER HOW OLD are at that level. This is a new concept.
Anyway, I just wanted to comment that I was SO disturbed by MONGOPOP's lack of intelligence...I just had to make a comment.
The book is great...Do not let this one review steer you away from a book that will definately help you.
It really scares me that some people will go out of their way to post negative views. I wonder if Mongopop has ever given a positive review. I doubt it.

This is not much of either type of book jewelry or doing craft type home biz. The only thing about this books title is to sell books to people that don't know much about either of the main items in the title. If you know some about either this tome will not help in any case. You can get the copyright type stuff from the Gov for free, and the legal stuff from your library. Also the laws governing a small biz are so locally written check again with your local library. I do own it and will be trying to off load it.
Lots of Great Info!! September 14, 2005

Originally borrowed this book at the local library-liked it so well, I purchased it through Amazon-lots of really good information in a friendly easy to read style. I'd recommend it for anyone who is thinking about going into their own jewelry making business.

"Make Money Doing What You Love"....That is what this book was written for. It was NOT to teach you how to bead. One should already be skilled before attempting to sell their creations or to even think about starting a business. I found it to be informative and helpful, as did the people that I teach. It was easy to understand and well written. I'm pleased to have found this book through Amazon.com. Thank-You. BB
