Pricing, Franchising & Manufacturing - Sara & Helen Answer Questions With YOUR Help!
Q: Savannah O'Neill asks when manufacturing your own products makes more sense than relying on supplier stock. When should you consider in-house production?
Begin by evaluating your product's volume and profitability. Start with a couple of best-sellers, test manufacturing in-house for those items, and gradually scale as margins improve and cash flow supports the investment in tooling and capacity.
Pricing, Franchising & Manufacturing - Sara & Helen Answer Questions With YOUR Help!
Q: My husband is close to going self-employed and is considering buying into a franchise. Where can I look for trusted franchise options?
Consider franchises with strong training and support networks, like industry-agnostic models (e.g., regional franchise territories). Use resources such as Franchise Direct UK, Rightbiz, Witch Franchise, and similar directories to explore options and assess fit and potential cash requirements.
Pricing, Franchising & Manufacturing - Sara & Helen Answer Questions With YOUR Help!
Q: I'm on the verge of setting up my small business, handmade items. How do you price your products?
Start by listing all costs (materials, time, packaging, posting) and assign a value to your time as a minimum wage equivalent. Add indirect costs and a target profit margin, then benchmark against market prices to determine price parity or a premium strategy.
Mam Guilt, Leaving A Career To Start A Business & Not Being Paid: Sara & Helen Answer Your Questions
Q: Final question from Ben: what happens if you don't get paid?
If a client won't pay, don't ignore it. Actively manage invoices, make courtesy reminders, discuss payment plans when needed, and use clear terms up front. If necessary, consider putting the account on hold and negotiating a payment timeline, while keeping the door open for future work and avoiding knee-jerk punitive actions unless all other options are exhausted.
