“The hard part that I need to sort of think about or get through to you is that the same method in which you build and you make is not the same method and mindset that you need to market and do sales in your business.”


-Steve Larosilire



Don't Go It Alone:

One of the primary stumbling blocks for woodworking entrepreneurs is the belief that they have to go it alone. Steve emphasizes the importance of community and collaboration. While woodworking can be a solitary craft, entrepreneurship doesn't have to be. Connecting with like-minded individuals who understand the journey can provide valuable insights and support, helping you see your business in a new light.


Openness to New Ideas:

Many woodworkers become resistant to new ideas, sticking to old methods that may no longer be effective. Steve urges woodworkers to remain open to fresh approaches, even when they seem unconventional. For example, using your personal Facebook page for business purposes can be a game-changer, and being open to such ideas can lead to business growth.


Overcoming Limiting Beliefs:

Steve addresses common limiting beliefs that hinder growth, such as the fear of putting yourself out there, the concern about getting too busy, and the desire to keep business and personal life separate. He emphasizes that people are generally more focused on themselves and that separating business from personal life can limit your growth potential. Embrace your authentic self and focus on the present instead of worrying about potential future problems.


The Importance of Having a Plan:

A lack of planning is a significant challenge for many woodworking entrepreneurs. Steve highlights the need for a clear roadmap for your business. Having a well-defined plan, investments, and a structured approach can make a world of difference in your business's growth. Don't rush to diversify revenue streams; first, maximize your primary source of income.
