60. Holiday Prep 2.0: “I don’t have the stock for that!”

The Mud Peddlers: Ceramic Art Behind the Scenes

Lindsey and Donte again touch upon the topic of preparing for the holidays. In a more musing sequel to their 2020 episode on holiday prep, these two mud peddlers discuss their holiday shop update plans, where they focus their numbers on inventory when there’s multiple demands on their product, and changing perspectives on money-making and efficiency.

Is this your first time selling your work during the holidays? If you’re a holiday season veteran, what’s one piece of advice would you give to help a newcomer get through this crazy time of year?
