      Make a "rainbow galaxy rug" include those words plus all your materials in the YT tags... Oh and use elmers glue for something so that's a valid tag also😉
      Basically it's a suggestion to boost your views using highly searched, trending words... plus the thumbnail of a rainbow galaxy (whatever that'd look like) should be an attention grabber!

  • @wandakowalski7063

    Great information. There is a tendency for artisans to under price their work. You have to consider that your time is valuable: designing, the gas for your car, ordering materials and the time to create the project from start to finish should be all in the final price. Your target market is people who want something unique and recognize the value of that uniqueness and quality. The trick is to find that target market. Your stuff, while not to my taste, is really, really nice. Good luck and thanks for taking the time to share!

  • @fightvale57
    @fightvale57 Před 3 lety +5

    You are completely right. Make sure you place the value and have people meet it. The way value works is you have to set it because people will naturally try and low ball you. The right person will pay you what you're worth but you've got to tell them what the worth it. You do good work,I just wanted you to reinforce that you're totally right. This is the attitude of a successful person. You're talented.

  • @luca91590

    i agry with all your pojnts exept the last one "popularity". I mean i kinda understand the reason that because there will be more people interested, you can put a higher price because you kinda know that it will sells anyway (if i understood well, i'm french so maybe i'm missing a point) but for me the last point should be creativity instead of popularity. If you just recreate a design that already exist (like the space jam logo) you basically just do an industrial work, there's no creativity, no singularity, so for me it should be even cheaper. But if you do something really personal, your style, something which doesn't exist anywhere else, for me this should be a point that increase the price, because there's singularity, and also because you took time to create the singular design

  • @AnitaAsani
    @AnitaAsani Před 3 lety +8

    Would it make sense to take a mathematical approach to it?
    Like say for time, I add a certain amount per hour I spend on the rug depending on size...and also by running a small experiment determine the amount of yarn it would take for a certain fixed size, like a 1ft rug and use that in purchasing materials? Then add a certain fee for commissioned pieces? Can this method work?

    So the things you mentioned are pretty straightforward. But you really didn't mention HOW to price them. You also didn't mention the price of licensing for the Lakers and Disney brands you showed, or lawyer fees you'll need to back you in f you don't have a license for those "popular" products.
    So for products, how do you figure in the price? 2x-3x the cost? Did you figure cost of your tools? You should figure in a cost of use, so you can replace the gun when it needs replaced. Or the oil for cleaning, the air gun for cleaning, vacuum etc...all those need figured into it. Also design time IF you have an original idea, set up etc...
    This is what I taught our kids at photography school...all the big and small details must be figured in.

      short answer, no. long answer, no. lol. unless you have a license to manufacture this stuff it's IP infringement, and you won't get a license unless you meet their criteria and can afford the license. they're just not going to sell you a license for a couple of pieces to a guy working out of a spare bedroom even if you could afford it. unless you're able to mass-produce and have retail relationships with large chains they really have no incentive to waste their time.
      there may be exceptions where a really small company might own the copyright to some ancient property and the market is so niche that 200 units would be considered a success, but even then they're not likely to give permission to some schmuck who doesn't even have a vendors license piddling away in his spare bedroom.
