Coaching
Sometimes, artisans have specific business problems they’d like help solving. Solutions might include choosing the right business structure, developing a pragmatic but effective marketing strategy, and establishing a record keeping system that will actually get used.
Other times, though, artisans like more general information, like how to best use social media tools, how to develop their portfolio & marketing materials, how to formulate a “rock star” self-promotion strategy, or how to improve their time management and personal productivity.
Also, it can be reassuring to have a trusted advisor you can call on as a sounding board, or to look over your shoulder when you’re working on something tricky, or just to help you hold you accountable to your commitments.
My expertise is helping artists channel their creative impulses into a workable revenue stream. I do this in three ways. First, I help them understand the often-confusion languages of business, finance, tax, and accounting. Second, I help them craft an image of how they want their arts business to look, sound, and feel. Third, I help them develop a list of concrete and practical steps to reach their future picture.
Regardless of the type of help or answers sought, I find a monthly coaching arrangement works best. To accommodate different needs, several coaching plans are available. The higher the level, the more coaching you get.
