Furniture maker Martin from Shropshire and stained-glass artist Charlotte from Bristol are both intent on making money from their creations.

An accident at work meant a change of career and a chance for Martin to follow his heart into furniture making. He’s a highly skilled woodworker, but not so good when it comes to the sales and business side. Will his mentor be able to boost his confidence and arm him with the know-how to help him start selling his incredible work?

Charlotte gave up her job to dedicate her time to building her stained-glass business. She’s got plenty of potential to develop her work but finds pricing up her pieces difficult. With the help of her mentor, will she put everything she has into expanding her collection and bring in the sales she needs to prove she’s got what it takes to succeed?

Both makers are given eight weeks to turn their new careers into successful businesses, but can they bring in the sales to prove they’ve got what it takes to make it in the creative world? Show less
