56: Keeping Profit Margins Up In Your Furniture Refinishing Business - BusyBees in Business Strategy Session - Lindsey

In Episode #56 of Busybee Refinishing with MelDidItHerself, I’m bringing you another session of the BusyBees in Business Strategy Session series! Today I’m sitting down with Lindsey, a recent graduate from the Side Hustler to the All In-er in the Furniture Refinishers Success Spectrum, to discuss her furniture refinishing business.

We discuss ways she can increase her profit margins in her business to ensure she is making enough profit and getting paid what her time, skillset and efforts are worth. We also talk about how to figure out what to price your upcycled pieces at, and how leaning in to the mentality of being a furniture refinisher will help you to charge your worth. We also discuss having a business owner mindset and how, regardless of the career you’re coming from when entering furniture refinishing, you have transferable skills that will make you excel in business (even if you don’t have a business background!).

If you have ever wondered:

How do I figure out what to price my furniture makeovers at?
How can I keep profit margins high in my furniture refinishing business?
Am I the right fit to own a business selling upcycled furniture?
How do I know what to charge for custom furniture refinishing services in my business?
How do I find the time to work on (and not always just IN) my furniture refinishing business to help it grow and make my life easier?

Then this episode is for you!
