What is the MOST important factor to consider if I want to become a full-time professional?
A. You are going into BUSINESS, and there is absolutely no romance in running a business. One of the biggest impediments to success as a full-time self-employed instrument maker is not becoming a builder, plenty of people get that right and build perfectly serviceable instruments. But if you don’t know how to budget both your money and your time, if you don’t know how to locate and sell to your target market, it won’t matter how successful you are as a builder. A failed business is a failed business regardless of the quality of the product. Anyone with good business skills can sell crap. The best product will remain on the shelf without the proper marketing tools.
