Watch Me Start A New Jewellery Business From Scratch - ep.1

[@leslieorth3602]

Can you do a close up of how the ring goes on?

[@megan.collins]

Yes, will definitely show that more in ep2 when I show it to other climbers and see their thoughts!

[@deannak1841]

I agree, I don’t really understand either, do you have to take the chain off?

[@thenaturalbeader]

Thank you, Megan, can't wait for the next episode! You are so creative and inspiring! God bless you!

[@megan.collins]

Thank you so much!

[@AyeShanti]

Thank you for sharing your process, I am looking forward to this series as I work on my process. ❤

[@megan.collins]

You are so welcome! Hope you enjoy it! 😃

[@goldsilverandiamonds]

Interesting video. You covered a few ideas people ignore or don't realize when starting a business. Sara sure was kind to help you. Hopefully your conversation with her on business and focus of market re-sparks a fire in her to start creating and designing jewelry again. You don't have to make everything yourself. You can hire help or have items casted at low cost and in higher volume to help build a brand, sales and profit.

[@megan.collins]

Love this!! So glad you enjoyed the video!

[@sojo5028]

My suggestion is: ‘Anchor’ as this is terminology in climbing and means secure.

[@yvonnesoderstrom2179]

Thank you Megan 🙏🏼 You are so inspiring! I look forward to follow this series 🙏🏼🥰

[@scottbenson8105]

I love your videos and I can’t wait to see more of this series and more, I just started making jewelry and you’re very inspiring. Thank you so much.

[@megan.collins]

Yay! Thank you!

[@HannahRoseYoutube]

This is super cool! I'm excited to keep watching the series. :) Are you making every piece of jewelry with netting 300k? That seems like a lot of jewelry making for one person!

[@megan.collins]

No way I could make that much jewellery 😅 I work with a super talented manufacturer who has very talented jewellers working for her. All handmade, sustainable and recycled.

[@HannahRoseYoutube]

@@megan.collins That makes sense. Thanks for the response! 😄

[@KDbelieves]

If I was making jewelry for rock climbers, I would make a functional key clip pendant. Make it gold and more streamlined. Something that may not look exactly like a key clip, but functions just like one. I think it would look really cool, and it'll be very functional.

[@megan.collins]

Cool idea! 😃 I'm not running the business. It was just for an example, so if you fancy doing it, go ahead 🤗

[@alicecornelius6363]

Love the mountain shape within..awesome...thanks for sharing your experience 😊 ..

[@megan.collins]

You're so very welcome! Thank you for the compliment!❤️

[@kelly-deeknight1571]

Awesome I’m really enjoying seeing snippets from your travels

[@Moongirl68]

I know people who are into climbing and would love this necklace!!

[@megan.collins]

That's great to hear!

[@Justthefurofus]

This is so fascinating! Thank you for sharing this! I can’t wait to see the results!

[@megan.collins]

You are so welcome!!🤗 glad you’re enjoying it!❤️

[@csenns]

Love this idea! "Climb & Keep" ?

[@Rob-vx2fb]

Are you going to include labor, overhead and design time?

[@megan.collins]

Great question! Not for the sample which is the one I just made. You'll have to keep watching as I will dive more into the pricing for sure👍

[@CristinaSolomon-x4c]

Beautiful! Thank you for your videos. I just started 🤪

[@megan.collins]

You're so welcome, and you've got this!

Hi Megan. Nice to see Emil and yourself are having such good time in Bangkok...love to have sneek peeks of the city. Enjoyed the startup of this new business 😉 and is of great help as a guidance to doing it for myself....just brainstorming and courage 💪🏻🌈🍀💖. Great to see what feedback you will get from the climbers in Malasia ( would have been interesting coming back to talk to the people you interact un Bangkok 's gym but knew you were running out of time). Thanks for this startup series ❤❤❤❤❤!!!! PD: no clue for a name for your necklace..."climb-ring"?😅🤔😉 Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷

[@megan.collins]

Thank you so much! I like the name! A strong contender for sure!

[@BonniePhillips-m4h]

Ready! Set! Go!! Thanks!

[@veronicakasper7257]

Living in the us here. The costs here are outrageous. Just a chain like that alone here would likely cost $60. Then the materials, a saw, the silver all likely amounting to another $80. Is there a place anyone recommends to source materials from! Especially silver and gold! Thank you!

[@megan.collins]

Yikes! Sorry you’ve struggled to source chains and such! Trying searching silver and gold wholesale companies. They will sell it for much cheaper price than retail.🤍 but possible they may have a minimum order quantity, so be aware of that too!

[@chriswilly5225]

Hello Megan Please be healthy , happy and creative

[@megan.collins]

Thank you so much, same to you!💝

[@sojo5028]

What about a play on carabiner - cara- ring-a!🤣

[@AngelicaLamiALJw]

Thank for this video process, very good idea for a good series! what do you think about "Climbit" ?

[@RimanteCaplinskaite]

I cant help it , but I see a mountain hanging on that chain and that is how I would call it hanging mountain

[@KC9RXP]

I'm still a welder for now, and ide actually use this

[@megan.collins]

So glad to hear you would use this!

[@estatesetc.9750]

Sportista…athlete in Bosnian, since the design is great for all athletes!

Call it "the cliff hanger."
