for

Bloggers,
there are few ways to

monetize online tutorials


used for craft/diy projects

Weve begun to implement our widget within the craft and hobby industry. With 2/3 of crafters using online sources for inspiration, access to the materials used in online tutorials is the biggest frustration when it comes to crafting. The root of inspiration comes from content providers (i.e. bloggers and publishers). Primary research shows that 75% of bloggers identify monetization as a top frustration with blogging. This problem extends into other categories such as beauty and food.

6 why invest
1. The Team: 2. Traction: 3. Industry: 4. Capitalize: 5. ROI:
Dont invest in the horse, invest in the jockey. Visit investors.craftistaskits.com to meet the team and advisory board. We generate sales. We have customers. Now its time to scale to the next level. The craft industry has been stagnant for quite some time and is ripe for innovation. The opportunities with tech + craft are only beginning. Craft & DIY is not for grandma anymore (still love you grams!). Theres a new generation of crafters, and theyre highly engaged. Crafts is just the first segment we are approaching. Thereafter, we will approach beauty, food and more. We also have an exit strategy of selling to a media partner such as Conde Naste, an e-commerce player like Amazon or a large retailer like Wal-Mart.
