How I’m iterating and learning to refine my target market with Megha Mundandishe

Hello Now What Show Listeners!  I am your host, Amber Christian, Editor of Handmade Seller Magazine. Today we welcome Megha Mundandishe to the show from Mayaani Jewelry!

Megha is currently building her niche. So often the early stages of a handmade business are all about finding your target market. She shared her journey of learning and refining. She is starting to work her way into weddings and special events. Like many early stage businesses, time and experiments are helping her figure out where to focus. I dare you not to smile when you see her energy and enthusiasm. 

Like so many artisans, her calling brought her back to something she always enjoyed but had not embraced as a business. As we get older and wiser, so many of us pursue new callings for our time and energy. Listen in as she shares how she is gently navigating this journey into making custom statement jewelry pieces and wedding jewelry. Learn how she’s helping women embrace emotional connections through jewelry.
