My only recommendation on top of everything charles has said.

Build a guitar for the enjoyment of it, do not build with the aspiration of making a living from it, if you enjoy making it, make another one for a friend and or family and keep the build process going.

After a while, if you do the job well and enjoy doing it, with luck you may get a commisioned build and then you can start as an established builder.

If your doing it for money and want to quit your current job etc, then best returns are in repairs. So in that instance go and buy damaged guitars repair them and flip them until you have a skill set you can sell.
