Need Help Understanding Commission When Selling Jewelry in Retail Boutique
by Angie Pinion Kelley.
The boutique owner asked if I double what it costs me to make my merchandise (actually I do x3) and I said yes.
So she wants to keep 10-20% commission on what it costs me to make it.
If I’m selling a necklace for $30 and it cost me $15 to make(actually $10), at 20%, she’d get $3.
Confusing, yes?
I want to cover myself. I actually mark up x 3 + hourly rate.
Thank you.
