Business by Dezign presents
Come teach at Craft to Cash
I'm gathering a handful of generous experts to teach handmade makers how to turn the thing they love into a business that actually pays. If that's your zone of genius, I'd love to have you on the lineup.

Why you'll want in
What's in it for you
- Get in front of thousands of makers who are actively working on their businesses — not tire-kickers.
- Grow your own list. Everyone you refer registers on a page that feeds your audience, not just mine.
- Earn 30% commission on every all-access pass sold through your link.
- A free all-access pass and a speaker community full of people worth knowing.
- Done-for-you promo — swipe copy and graphics, so sharing is copy, paste, posted.
The kind of thing I'm after
Topics that fit
Every session should leave a maker able to do something new by the end. If your expertise helps a handmade business make more money with less flailing, you're in the right place.
Your angle doesn't have to be on this list. If you've got something makers need, surprise me.
Let's be upfront
The honest commitment
No mystery, no fine print. Here's exactly what being a speaker asks of you — and everything it doesn't.
✓ What I'm asking
- Pre-record one focused session (20–30 min) by Sept 14
- Hop into the live chat during your session slot to answer questions
- Share the summit with your people during the promo window (Sept 21 – Oct 8) using the copy I hand you
✕ What you won't do
- Be live on camera in real time — it's pre-recorded, pajamas welcome
- Build any tech, funnels, or landing pages
- Write your own promo from a blank page
- Chase anyone down for anything

Before you ask
Speaker FAQ
Do I have to be live on camera?
Nope. Sessions are pre-recorded, so you can film in your own time (and your pajamas). The only "live" part is popping into the chat during your session slot to say hi and answer questions.
Can I pitch my own offer?
Yes — you get a soft 3-minute pitch at the end of your session plus your affiliate link. The teaching stays teaching; the pitch is the cherry on top, not the sundae.
How long should my session be?
Aim for 20–30 minutes of genuinely useful teaching. Tight and valuable beats long and padded every time.
My list is small — should I still apply?
Please do. I care far more about the quality of what you teach than the size of your audience. Great teaching is the whole point.
When do affiliates get paid?
Commissions (30% of every all-access pass sold through your link) go out within 30 days of the summit wrapping. Your link and live stats live in the affiliate area once you're confirmed. [Confirm your payout method — e.g. PayPal.]
One good session, a whole lot of makers
Ready? Let's make something good.
