You CAN Launch A Business Selling What You Create
Even If You Don’t Know Where To Start

Helping Makers, Creators, and DIYers Build Profitable, Sustainable Businesses

You love making things and you’re passionate about what you make. Maybe you’ve even sold a few pieces here and there. But turning that into a real, money-making business? That’s where things get tricky. How do you price your products? Where do you sell? How do you get people to actually buy what you make—without feeling like you’re begging for sales?

That’s where Great Idea Girl comes in.

I help everyday people just like you figure out the best way to create a business from what you make and give you the best first and next steps to take – so you can start and grow a business that fits your life. No wasted time. No throwing money at things that don’t work. Just real, practical strategies from 20 years of selling my own products and working for a Fortune 100 company learning how the big guys do business.

I’m here to help you forge a realistic path to earning money. I won’t promise you that you’ll earn a gazillion dollars in 3 days, but I can promise you valuable information & business strategies, easy-to-use templates that make DIY possible, and resources to guide you through the process of planning and launching a business that works for you.


I m so excited that you’ve taken the first step towards your own business by seeking out help. I’m even more excited that you stopped by my website!

You are special. Unique. Creative. Yes, you! How do I know this? Because you were created by a creative God—and He made you in His image. That means creativity is already inside you, whether you recognize it or not. It’s woven into your DNA, part of what makes you, you.

Maybe you don’t think of yourself as creative because you can’t draw a straight line, your sewing machine intimidates you, or your idea of “cooking” is pressing buttons on a microwave. But creativity isn’t limited to paintbrushes, fabrics, or gourmet meals. It’s in the way you solve problems, the way you bring joy to others, and the way you see the world differently than anyone else.

The truth is, every one of us has been given something unique to create. Your job isn’t to compare your creativity to someone else’s. Your job is to discover it, develop it, and use it in a way that blesses you and others.

So the next time you catch yourself saying, “I’m not creative”, stop. That’s simply not true. God, the ultimate Creator, placed something in you that only you can bring to life. And the world is waiting to see it.


What business can you start?

We know not everyone has a lifelong hobby or talent they can turn into a business, and that’s okay! There are plenty of ways to earn extra money without being “passionate” about something. Here are a few examples:
  • Use the Skills You Already Have – From customer service to organization, the things you’ve done in past jobs (or life in general) can be turned into a freelance service.
  • Sell Products (Without Making Them Yourself) – Print-on-demand, drop-shipping, and reselling make it easy to start a store without the hassle of inventory.
  • Monetize What You Know – Whether it’s simple home hacks, life experiences, or something else, there are ways to turn your knowledge into online courses, e-books, or coaching.
  • Low-Cost, Low-Risk Side Hustles – Start small with things like digital downloads, tutoring, consulting, or managing social media for small businesses.


We know starting something new can feel intimidating, so we take the guesswork out of the process. Our resources are designed for women who:
  • Don’t know what kind of business to start
  • Need practical no-fluff guidance that fits their lifestyle
  • Want to work at their pace without pressure
  • Would love a flexible way to earn money on their terms
