The truth that hurts
Most makers don't fail because of bad products. They fail because of bad pricing.
Every ruined batch, torn fabric or broken chain comes out of your own pocket — not the price. Without accounting for it, you lose money on every batch.
The hours you spend painting, sewing, baking or engraving have a cost. If you don't pay yourself in the calculation, you're the lowest-paid employee of your own brand.
Marketplace commissions, card fees, packaging and shipping quietly add up. If they're not built into the price, they eat your margin before you notice.
Simplicity first
List materials, packaging and the hours of labor for your product — just like you would for any new recipe or design.
Type your desired profit percentage into one cell — the calculator works out waste and overhead for you.
Done — see the final customer price and a wholesale price for boutiques and distributors, calculated automatically.
Built like professional software
CraftPricingCalculator is a craft business pricing calculator built for makers who sell on Etsy, Shopify, at markets, or wholesale. It works like a handmade product costing sheet — enter your materials, labor and fees, and it hands back a defensible retail price in minutes instead of hours spent wrestling with formulas.
Live KPI cards and charts — total products, average margin and your top-profit item, calculated automatically from your catalog.
The full cost breakdown: materials, labor, packaging, platform fees, waste and overhead — with retail and wholesale pricing built in.
A plain-English color legend, a 3-step walkthrough, and every formula explained — so you're never guessing what a cell does.
Type your own waste percentage freely — every craft and batch size is different, so nothing is locked to a fixed preset.
Your true cost per unit is color-highlighted so it's impossible to miss — the one number every other price is built on.
Retail prices round up automatically to a clean ".99" ending — proven psychological pricing, applied with zero manual math.
Conditional formatting flags any product priced below a healthy 20% margin in red, and highlights standout 50%+ margins in green.
