Considering turning this into a stream of income. Any and all advice.
Hi community!
I first got into making macarons back in 2018 and have been making them for holidays/friends/family ever since. I love making them and am often told they're better than others my consumers have tried.
I'm days away from becoming a first time mom and currently on maternity leave, already dreading to return to work. I've already decided not to return to my previous job prior to maternity leave and to start searching for something different.... but that's another story. My husband says I can just be a SAHM... but I still want to contribute/have some sense of financial independence.
I'm really drawn to turning my love of making macarons into a small business. I feel it will allow me to stay home with the baby while also contributing/having that sense of independence. I know it will be a challenge with a new baby, but I'm willing to give it a shot once we establish a routine as a new family of 3.
What advice would you give to someone in my position considering such a move? Pros vs. Cons, business structure, packaging materials and labels.... all of the things!
Thanks so much!
