CYESmmtc2: Make Money Teaching Crochet Virtual Tour Wrap Up/Question and Answer Session

I answer questions about teaching crafts and self-publishing as I wrap up the virtual tour for my new book, Make Money Teaching Crochet . About this episode In this episode, I share the edited audio of a Facebook Live event I hosted earlier in the week where I answered questions from listeners about teaching crafts and self-publishing. Thanks to Rosalba Bassora , Novella Bobo from MadebyNovella , Patrice Walker from Yarn Over, Pull Through , Rachel McKinney from 100 Creations , and MG Camacho from Booktalk 'n More for sharing questions beforehand! I reference a lot of different resources, which you can learn more about by following these links: Craft Yarn Council Certified Instructors Program : This certification program is a requirement if you want to teach crochet or knitting at a "big box" store. In the book, I talk about other reasons you may want to consider getting certification, or why it may not be necessary for your specific teaching business. Scrivener : This is the software I used to convert my book to .mobi files for Kindle and .epub files for Kobo. I also used it to organize writing the book because there is a great "corkboard" feature where you can organize what looks like little index cards for notes on your book. Scrivener has a 30 day free trial, but the days aren't consecutive. You only "use up" your free trial on days when you open the software. Kindle Direct Publishing : I used KDP to self-publish my Kindle book and my print-on-demand book. Kobo Writing Life : I used this to self-publish the .epub version of the book. Canva : I used Canva to create the cover for the ebook using the pre-sized template, my own selections of fonts, and a photo. Fiverr: Bdboss is the Fiverr seller who transformed my ebook cover into a cover for the print book to meet CreateSpace requirements. Gumroad : This is where I sell the direct downloads of my ebook. It also has a great affiliate program that is super easy to set up. If you enjoyed this episode The Creative Yarn Entrepreneur Show is no longer broadcasting.
