Wrong. You have to start somewhere and usually that will mean months or likely years working as a hobby or making next to nothing. You can't just setup shop and expect people to pay $50 an hour - bringing up the plumber as an example again: could a completely untrained plumber turn up at your doorstep and request $50/hr to do plumbing? You'd laugh. They work for peanuts for 4 years while doing a night class a week until they are qualified.
- rdtwo 5y agoThat’s kind of my point. You made it more eloquently than I did. While you are learning you have to work for below your target sometimes just cost it materials to get your skills up. Similar to how we all had to pay for 4 years of college in both time and money to get good paying jobs
- quesera 5y agoI tried to be clear about that in my initial comment -- apologies if not. But it's not because you lack the skills to produce, it's because you lack the market knowledge, marketing savvy, and brand awareness. If you lack the skills to produce, you should not start selling products. All of the learning process is a prerequisite and it is not reasonable to price it in.
