Hi, I’m TJ!
Over the past 10 years I’ve spent thousands of dollars and hours learning the craft of leatherworking.
I went from treating it as a hobby to turning it into a business that has brought in over $100,000 in the last year alone…and I’ve found some clear methods that got me there.
I’ve used these methods to create success not just in this business, but in other ventures and passion projects.
But it hasn’t always been smooth sailing. When I started my own leatherworking journey, I was in your shoes. I didn't have any mentors to guide me, and I felt lost and overwhelmed.
Plus, the successful leathercrafters I asked for help were less than welcoming. It seemed that they were hoarding knowledge.
Eventually, I was able to teach myself the craft and develop my own unique style. But I never forgot the feeling of being all alone in this journey.
Now I want to share my knowledge with you and guide you to success...
How this course sets you up for success
GETTING STARTED IN LEATHERCRAFT AND MAKING FRONTS IS HARD WORK, BUT YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I know all too well how intimidating it can be to start a new journey in an unknown field. It took me over five years to truly turn this hobby into something I enjoy and profit from.
I got stuck! Part of it was learning all the technical aspects (I didn't have a course to help me get started) but mostly, I was scared. I was so concerned with wanting to do it "right" that it kept me from the most important step: getting started.
That's why I've created this course! This is what I wish I had when I first started.
I want you to have a place to go when you have questions or you need a little encouragement. Firefighter Fronts Fast-Track has built-in ways for you to get help, whether you're looking for feedback on your front design, get stuck with a tooling problem, or you just need a little pep-talk before taking that first step.
