"What even is a tariff?"
Lesson four, in plain English, with the numbers worked out on your own product.
One payment. Course + a permanent Global tab.Small by choice.
Small by choice.
Global by design.
Everything you need to start selling your handmade work across borders — tariffs, tax, customs paperwork, packaging, other countries' import laws and the new margins that come with all of it. Then a Global desk inside your dashboard that keeps running it for you.
The bit nobody explains
"Will customs seize my candles?"
Material-by-material warnings for wax, soap, wood, leather and food — before you list.
"Am I still making money on this?"
A landed-cost tool that shows exactly how much margin the border eats, and the price that keeps it.
"Which form? CN22? CN23?"
One page. Which form, which box, what to write so the parcel clears.
Twenty lessons, seven modules
Short, practical, and written for one person at a bench — not a logistics department. Every lesson ends with one thing to do, and it lands in your planner.
1 · Before you ship anything
Is Going Global Right For You Yet?

CN22, CN23, commercial invoice — which one, and what goes in each box.
9 minutes
Lost Parcels, Returns & Insurance
Decide the policy before the first parcel vanishes, because one will.

And then the Global tab appears
The course teaches it once. The dashboard does it every time.
Market rules
Duty bands, tax rates, thresholds and registrations for every country you sell to.
Landed cost
The real profit on an international order — duty, tax, postage, currency, fees, the lot.
Ship ready
A per-country checklist: codes, forms, labels, restricted materials, packaging.
Price floor
