Online Masterclass: How to create and run an ethical business.

Ethical. Ethically made. Made by hand in ethical conditions. You’ve heard countless brands and businesses use terms like these to describe themselves. But what does it mean to really BE an ethical business? Just as you consider every corner of your stall at a Finders Keepers market or the wording on every social media post, embedding ethical practices in your business is all about paying attention to the details.

Whether you are a sole trader or outsource work to someone else, this one-hour session from Ethical Clothing Australia will give you practical, straightforward insights on creating an ethical business – covering everything from the big ideas right down to small changes you might not have thought of (but make a huge difference)!

In this FREE one-hour online masterclass, Louisa Ramsay from Ethical Clothing Australia will share:

• Why ethical practices are good for business!
• What Australian workplace laws apply to you in your fashion or textile business.
• What you need to know if you want to employ someone else and grow your business.
• The three most common mistakes ECA see businesses make.
• How to choose the right accreditation for you.
• How to tell customers about your ethical values (in a way that cuts through the noise!).
• How to build your ethical business community.
