Are you ready to turn your creative passion into a business?

A thriving business is a work of art that takes time, diligence and a plan! This class is a guided process designed for artists who want to build a business selling their work or creative services. This is not the business class you took in college. This is a creative approach to building a business that reflects you, your unique work, and your values.

We’ll be walking through a guided process of exercises using The Creative Business Plan. Each exercise will help you think through the most important parts of your business and finish with a full plan for how to get started.

Get Ready To:

  • Create a vision for your business
  • Get clear on your “why”
  • Price your offerings
  • Get your financials organized
  • Map out sales targets for each month
  • Plan your marketing strategy
  • Create your goal map for the year

Who is this class for?
This class is designed for any creative who wants to build a business from their creative work. Whether you want to create a little extra income from a side hustle or do creative work full time, this class can give you tools to set yourself up for success.
