Step 1
To make money on your sewing skills, you need to decide where and on what you want to direct your energy. You can provide services for the repair or fitting of ready-made products, sew clothes according to customers' measurements, make interior items (curtains, tablecloths, bedspreads, pillows, etc.), create stage costumes.
Step 2
To get started, you need to register with the tax office. It will be enough to become an individual entrepreneur.
Step 3
Next, you should choose a room for work. You can become the owner of an atelier, or you can fulfill all orders at home. In the first case, it is better to be located in the city center, in a crowded place. A pavilion in the clothing market is perfect; such an arrangement will immediately attract customers who need to fit the purchased items in size. In the second case, you will save on rent and repair, but it is worth preparing for the fact that strangers will constantly visit your home. Therefore, it is necessary to allocate a separate room for fitting and sewing.
Step 4
You will need sewing equipment and various supplies. Among them are a sewing machine, overlock, scissors, needles, patterns and patterns, threads, crayons and other useful little things.
Step 5
If you decide to become the owner of an atelier, then you will need additional working hands. You can find a seamstress by ad or through the labor exchange. Before you employ a person, be sure to check the quality of his work.
Step 6
The methods of finding clients will depend on the direction of sewing that you have chosen. To attract individuals, standard advertising media such as posting advertisements in local media and distributing leaflets are suitable. You can also give out your business cards to clothing and fabric merchants, or even negotiate a custom fit for their clients. In order to receive large orders from legal entities, it will be most effective to work by offering them our services directly. Cold calls, mailing of commercial offers, personal meetings can be effective.
