That is a really great post, Tiana!

I really like that you treat the cost of getting a commission as a separate expense that needs to be folded into the total cost.
And I like that you identify and include your overhead costs.
I sell stuff through a small gallery and they charge a commission that covers exactly those types of expenses.

That is so true.
I was reluctant to follow my gut feeling for a long time because I couldn't explain it in rational terms.
Then, several years ago, I had a set of experiences that convinced me that my gut knew a lot more about certain things than I did.
Now I listen when my gut has something to say.
It's not always right, but it has a very, very good batting average.
