What problem does it solve? Handmade tie-dye sellers often underprice their work, mismanage Etsy listings, and lack a clear path for pricing, taxes, and scaling. This Skill acts as a business coach that diagnoses the specific situation before prescribing advice, so guidance fits the artisan's actual capacity, costs, and goals. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Diagnostic Coaching: Asks targeted discovery questions about revenue, production time, and goals before giving recommendations, with dedicated modes for discovery, coaching, red flags, and pricing analysis. - Pricing Analysis: Calculates cost breakdowns (blanks, dyes, labor, overhead) and produces tiered price recommendations using the (Materials + Labor + Overhead) × 2 formula. - Deep Reference Library: Covers Etsy SEO optimization, business structure (LLC vs sole proprietorship), taxes, marketing, scaling, and a Procion MX dye color guide. - Use Case: An Etsy seller asks whether $30 is a fair price for a spiral tee. The coach asks about their blank costs and production time, then builds a full cost table showing their effective hourly rate and recommends a target price of $35-45. ## Quick Start Ask the coach to analyze your tie-dye pricing by describing your current product, materials cost, and time per item.
