I would say that I've made a minimal profit only because I'm basically putting 100% of my profits back into my business to fund new equipment, advertising, products, ect.
Like, when I find a fabric I like, I have to buy yards of it at a time to make sure I have enough for a product that will be around for some time so that can add up. Also when I started I bought an expensive sewing machine so when you total up all the expense that I've incurred to get going plus the fact that I am trying to still build the business so I'm rolling all my would be profits back into the business, I'm not really turning a noticeable profit at this point.
There are many factors like continuing good website design and functionality which comes at a price, paying for advertising space to market your business site, packaging, ect.
If you could find a way to just sell items w/o any of that kind of overhead I think there would be a good profit more quickly.
However I am in it more for the long term and knew it would be a struggle to begin a small, home based start up without any real business sense so I am learning all by experience only so my growth and profits are much smaller than they would be had I gone in with knowing exactly how I would do it all
