Ryan and Becca are joined by Rebecca Ickes Carra, host of The Maker's Playbook podcast and co-owner of Carra Terra, a small pottery business in Milwaukee, WI. Drawing from her 14-years as a self-employed photographer, Rebecca sheds light on the dynamics of building their pottery business alongside her husband Francesco. We cover the art of juggling multiple commitments, insights into working with a spouse, reflections on a year of selling at in-person shows, tips on pricing handmade items, and a strategic look at how Etsy fits into their current and future business plans.
