Question by Lisa: Help with pricing for newbie business?
Ok, I’m looking to open an online shop selling crafts. I would most likely do this either on etsy or hyena cart. I can make the following items very well:
100% recycled chubby crayons in 2 sizes, small and large
Soybean Crayons (eco friendly) in various shapes and sizes
Soap (I use real ingredients, no essential oils or dyes. I would be willing to add essential oils or dyes by request.) in various shapes and sizes
Mineral Makeup
Lipgloss
100% recycled paper (I make it myself out of paper we’ve used in the house, junk mail, etc.)
Cloth baby wipes
Washcloths
Organic Playdough (lasts for about a year)
I’m working on cloth diapers, as well, but haven’t gotten the hang of them enough to offer a consistent quality product. I hope to be able to offer them and candles by the end of next year.
Would I be able to sell these items, and about how much would they go for? Also, what are some differences between hyenacart and etsy? Do you favor one over the other, and why? Thank you in advance for any advice.
I forgot to put bath salts on the list.
I report bots. Thank you.

Online business is so tough .. yet it’s better to study the other competitors online for your product .. and see if you can compete ..
Plus people might prefer those stuff to buy them locally ??.. so why not start to sell them locally ?? Flea market, small store, etc ??? .. and you get more experience with the business and market ..
Good luck and have a great dya ..
