Who are our members?
A typical member is a sole-trader or micro-business owner who produces a small range of unique products (no food items). Items should have an element of ‘handmade’, which may be either handmade by you or produced on a small scale in the UK based on your original designs. We are looking for high quality products, photographed beautifully at an affordable price point with an aesthetic we know our customers will love!
You need to have high quality photos availble for the directory - we often turn down early stage makers who aren’t quite ready for membership as they don’t have enough products or quality photos.
How do I become a member?
Membership costs just £15 a month, with no minimum contract. There is a one-off £27 joining fee and you can leave and rejoin as suits you and your business without paying this fee again. Both prices are inclusive of VAT.
