Makers EDU :: All Sessions 2023

$324.00

Description

Each of these small group sessions will allow you time to learn more, bounce ideas off others, and gain helpful critiques to make your products standout to buyers. As we work through each of these topics we will spotlight your brand and products to give direct feedback. Following our last class we will hold a Makers Market for our participants. This market will be held by invitation only to the participants who have attended at least 2 of the 4 classes.  This is a great opportunity to see how your products will be received by customers and gauge interest in your brand/product line. 

If you are interested in attending virtually, please indicates this in the checkout notes.
