Expect to just break even at first. Pricing is hard. Finding where you sell well is hard. Get an app and card reader like Square and enter your Venmo and Cash sales into it so you can track your sales over time. It takes a while to figure out what people will pay, where they look for stuff like yours and what seasons do best for you.

I appreciate that. I've thought of part of that, but tracking long term to figure out seasonal changes is a good idea.
