Entrepreneur: the jeweller whose product is also a business.

The skill set is double — a making craft (any ladder) plus the manager's suite: pricing that survives rent, photography that sells, channels that fit the work, inventory that does not strangle cash.

The stack — making ladder + entrepreneurship + photography + marketing.

First sales sequence — gifts and markets (paid practice), then online with honest photography, then wholesale and commissions when the standard holds. The published reviews say it in their own words: a student planning "to start and improve my own online shop."

The fail-safe — modular certificates let you test the business layer BEFORE leaving income; that option is the whole point of the ladder design.
