ABOUT US | Handmade Life

Hey there!

It’s Julie and Sylvia, CEO’s of Awesome here at Handmade Life. We’re life-long makers and small business owners with, between us, more than 20+ years of sales & marketing, web and graphic design, copywriting and web content development.

We’ve put in the time under the tents as face-to-face sellers and sold our handmade wares as wholesalers. We’ve founded brick and mortar artist collectives, worked for bigwiggity corporations and non-profits, and are wholly and entirely in love with the maker and creative space AND digital marketing!

(We also dig good cheese, dark chocolate and red wine—preferably served in quick succession!)

Being a kick ass biz boss gets messy.

Don't give up!

Along the way, we’ve made tons of mistakes, big and small. We’ve felt unqualified, unworthy and unprepared. We’ve felt overwhelmed, discouraged and alone. We’ve made mistakes big and small.

But that voice, you know it too, the one from the depth of your creative soul, sometimes just a whisper, said: “never give up!”

And we’ve worked really hard at that… lol.. really, really hard! And we never gave up. And neither have you.

We also often wished that someone who had gone before would just give us the real goods on how to do what we love and profit. Say it with us, “I love profit and profit loves me!”

And that, friends, is what we’re here to do for you!

We’ve so got you! And we are super stoked about helping you to build your profitable handmade business online. A business with raving fans and loyal customers. A business that enables you to live a life of your own design.

Can we have an "Amen?"
