After struggling alone to turn my passion for making jewellery into a successful business, I have decided to share what I have learnt along the way with other aspiring jewellery designers.
"Where there is a will, there is a way."
I believe that running a profitable business is totally achievable for everyone. All you need is a solid business foundation, a proven strategy and a growth mindset.

I see so many jewellers spreading themselves too thin-Etsy, their own website, Instagram, markets, TikTok... it’s a LOT, right? 😅 Here’s the truth: trying to learn all those platforms at once will leave you feeling overwhelmed and like you’re getting nowhere. Pick *one* platform, focus on it, and master it. Only THEN, move onto a different one! For me Instagram is perfect for jewellery, it’s fr...

Great video and value. Thanks
My marketing is terrible 🥴 but I’m working on it! Thanks for the extra nudge 💛
Amazing and awesome!!
Please share what courses we need to take?
I love this. Thank you. I need to download the course.
That was so well put. I have to save this to review again. Jan packed with great info. I have been selling at festivals for 15 years now and am finally ready to master exommerce and real branding and marketing. Right now I have unconscious incompetence at all social media and I feel exactly as you said with being a beginner. I will def. Follow your work. Keep it up I am so grateful for it.
Awesome teaching. You made everything so easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful! 😁
Can u make more videos like this i will subscribe u
Got plenty on IG, bit behind on UA-cam at the moment. Needed a break. 😅🫣 But yes! Will be posting more in Jan again. 😉
There are more then 3 sorts of solder. We have 5; extra soft, soft, medium, hard, extra hard.
Not the case everywhere. 😉
Hi Megan. Thank you for sharing. Could you please say where you studied?❤
Hi, the VS jewellery school in London
Lmao this video lowkey funny
Only low-key hey? 😅 It cracked me up making it! 😂
I don't get it.
They’re in the description! I know most people don’t read the descriptions though.
Did you read the description?
@@megan.collins Honestly, I didn't even know there was an option for descriptions in Shorts. Admittedly, I rarely watch shorts and never even thought to look for a description, for whatever that's worth. Now I know to look for them; but I wonder how many people check descriptions on Shorts since most people don't even read the description on regular UA-cam videos already.
Thank you so much for this video! You’re so sweet and helpful! ❤
You are so welcome! 🤗
Starting thinking i do not have the funding needed to start
You can always just start small! Sell those, then re-invest that. Etc. I have a video about selling your first 10 pieces you might find helpful
WHAT DID YOU WISH YOU KNEW BEFOE STARTING?
Everything in the video
Looking good mam
Thanks
Well said
Thanks. Glad you thought so
Im not interesting enough
I'm sure you have qualities that make you interesting. They may seem like not much to you, but others might find amazing. Everyone has something unique and special about them, you included. 😉❤️
How nice that you showed this to us. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Great video ! Many good points
Thanks so much! Glad it resonated
Brilliant tips! thanks for sharing ❤
You're so welcome! It's an important skill to master!
Do you create the pieces yourself or buy wholesale
An answer would be nice... Ehemmm
Hiya, soz but behind on replying to comments. I used to make it all myself, then found a great manufacturer to create my designs.
When I first started asking boutique owners if they would sell my jewelry in their shop, I didn’t know if I should put labels on them with my brand name or not. They told me to go ahead and put my label on the items. So that’s something you may want to do. It’s so fun to build your brand and then post on Instagram!
Great idea! Yes! 🙌🏻
So to help........ Buy your e-book
Or figure it out on your own.
So don't underprice my jewelry, But what if I buy in larger quantities and get my supplies for half of what you pay for your supplies. Seems like your jewelry would be overpriced b/c You did not buy at the cheapest price .
Correct. Price-point is not the only factor to making sales. Different audiences like different value jewellery. If it's cheaper that's fine. If it's more expensive that's fine too.
You’d think just because you post your products to multiple social media platforms, you’d get more sales but I guess I was over complicating the idea
That's what I used to think too. One at a time, then add a new one.
Makes sense.
🙏🏻
ahaha at first, I realy thought Mark VC'd you because you were rich enough to be like a high-profile user of fb/insta
I wish, lol!! 🤣 No!
Well, as I tried to solder silver, just ring on pendant, I still consider it crazy... What helped was yout advice, to hold torch in non-dominant hand... worked like a charm, only 8 attempts needed... :-)
Woohoo!! 🎉🥳🙌🏻🔥 That's a victory for me too! Glad I could help!
I have the jewellery items but i dont have clients to puchase
But then the question is, Do you have a clear target audience?
Marketing to the right audience is key. ❤
1000% 👍🏻 yes!!
❤
😊
Am literally watching your videos one by one. I hope more new jewelers find your channel or join your class. We can definitely learn so much from you. I can totally understand why you want to focus on helping and coaching new jewelers now. It must be amazing feeling that you are helping people sharing the same passion and drive!
Aaah! That means a lot to me! 😊 Thanks! Glad you're finding them so helpful! I've been focusing all my energy on IG lately, but your message is inspiring me to post more on UA-cam again. Jan 🤞🏻😉
This a great tutorial. Thank you.
You're welcome
let's say I'm starting a charm jewelry brand, should I stick to bracelets OR necklaces or can I advertise both in the beginning?
Both! As long as they have the same aesthetic and vibe
Thank you for sharing 😊!!!
Thanks for commenting and appreciating ☺️
Hello, Megan! What size of boxes do you use to keep your jewelry organized? I love all your Ideas I find them very helpful. Thank you for doing all the thinking for us! LOL 💕
Hi, I don't have them with me, but I had a few different sizes. Biggish, not too big. 😅 Glad you're enjoying the content! ☺️
@@megan.collins Thank you so very much for taking the time to reply to me, I really appreciate it! Wishing you all the best for 2025!
Hey Megan!!! Belated Happy Birthday 🎂🎉🎊!! You’re kidding about being 40?!?!?! I thought you were in your mid to late 20’s!!!! Wow
Thanks!! 😊 I feel like I'm still in my 20s sometimes! Still in denial 😅🤣
Que tal te ha ido con el soplete DREMEL? Haz tenido algun problema?
Its good! 👍🏻 No problems
Definitely obstacle.. 🥴
It really is!
Is there a link to your course?
Hi soz, but behind on replying to comments www.megancollins.co/courses-page
🙌💓
What type of polishing material is that?
Great information! I want to start a jewelry business but with all the research I've done I'm getting overwhelmed. You have made me realize why! I've been trying to do too much. I can simplify and get started!❤❤❤❤
Great that I could help with that realisation. One thing at a time. 😉
Hi Megan, I would truly be interested in your course... I make jewelry currently, however, the selling of it is the hardest thing.... Thanks so much... :)🙃
Hi Deborah, it really is!!! Making it is easy! 😅 Here's the link to join. Looking forward to seeing you inside. 🤗 www.megancollins.co/Instagram_course
Megan I have a question about the 'one product' - im trying to simplify my range - should I do silver AND gold or keep it even simpler and just have a range in one or the other? Im finding the up front costs of gold and silver really daunting and wondering if favouring one is clever or risky....
Hiya, I would personally do both as some people are just silver peeps and others are all gold based on skin tone etc.
thank you for your insights Megan! I am sharing the same thoughts with many people who have already commented on this video. 🙂
You're welcome 🤗
F*** the haters.
Totally agree 😅🙌
@@megan.collins truthfully, it's been a much bigger issue than anticipated so, good that you point it out.
Just do it and make it happen
Yes 🙌😊
Focusing on one product one channel and the target audience. Make what customer likes
Yup! 👍 That's it! 😊
