Yesterday I published a little poll to find out how my fellow luthiers were wasting time. A few of you filled it in, others messaged me, or left comments on forums where I posted the poll. Thanks.
Most of you said “on your phone” and “Marketing that gets no results.” Fair enough. That stuff eats hours — quietly.
But if you’re running a one-person lutherie business, time matters. And when time leaks out the sides, money usually does too.
That’s exactly why I wrote "Making a Living in Lutherie." It’s not about building better guitars. It’s about building a better system around your work so the guitars actually get sold or repaired — and you stay sane.
