Welcome to "Snitches Get Stitches", a video podcast for small businesses and creators. My name is Claire and I own a successful digital design business, " Back My Stitch Up Design". After years of selling artwork and digital designs, I want to pass on my knowledge to other businesses, and share my successes and failures, with a bit of humour thrown in. Each week we'll be speaking to a new guest with experience in making, selling, and marketing products. This week we have Kelly from Little Gingers, a handmade clothing business in the UK. Kelly has also just opened a Fabric Shop, "Ginger Lily Bugs" with some other small business owners, and she shares advice on how to get a business up and running.
