Jason came across this awesome website.  It can be found at craftMBA.com

They have a killer blog where they talk about all sorts of things crafty business related.  Here's a few great posts about things that have been on my mind lately and a few I haven't even considered:

• pricing your products for growth
• growing your business beyond etsy
• want your products to stand out?  grow your craft
• getting the most out of a new product launch
• "are you familiar with our line?"
• how do you keep track of inventory?
• when to give away free products
• craft cannot compete on price
• for your listening pleasure: favorite business audiobooks and podcasts

They have a book club.  How cool is that?  Here's the upcoming schedule:

• Business and the Buddha: Doing Well by Lloyd Field, May 2010
• Good to Great by Jim Colins, July 2010

They have a few ebooks available for purchase.

CraftMBA also has a recommended reading section on their site. 

They're about to start up some online workshops to teach about crafty business things.  The schedule for workshops coming up soon is:
