Pricing Kandi for Etsy?

baseballhater 2/18/2024 01:07 pm 309

Not here to debate the ethics of selling kandi. Poor widdle Bwandon who cannot currently work a normal job needs to make money somehow (womp)

Anyways what’s a fair price scheme? My friends say minimum wage but we have “good” minimum wage here + I am slow at making things so I don’t think that $16 for this:

Is fair. Mmmmmmmmmm and what about actual cuffs? This—

—took me about two point five hours. Which would be umumum like $40 maybe idk I like math but I’m not good at calculating. I digress. Too much!! But then there’s also the fact that it DOES take time to make all this and it DOES cost money for materials and I AM looking to turn a profit. Sorry. Blame capitalism (and Reagan).

So yeah. Looking for advice. Should I even sell anything at all? But I need cash… maybe time for me to find another venture

(Fun bonus fact: seals can lower their heart rate to 5 bpm while diving)

@xXNo_One_Cares_BearXx: Wait how are you setting your account up? You can make them for free and put up listings for 10 cents a month.

Calculating would be something like (note i'm not sure how much your supplies cost, this is an example)
lets say you get 100 beads for a dollar, each bead would be 1 cent. 50 yards string 5 dollars
200 beads in a cuff- 2 dollars + 4 yards- 40 cents --> 2.40
You want a profit, so lets say add at least .5 of the supplies cost. --> 3.60

And then there's the work! 3 hours , let's say 15 an hour, 45.
add it up, 48.6 MINIMUM. Don't undersell your time, especially for profit.

Yes, include the hours of work you put into pieces. Your time is valuable.

i feel like starting should be singles for 5 and small cuffs for 16 then go from there how yous see fit. 40 for a huge ass cuff that took you two hours is reasonable,tehyre paying for time and resources shits expensive. if anyone complains about ethics they can whine about it to a wall its way more unethical to ust take away a opportunity to amke money completley from sombody who is literally just a guy and not a company
