Ready to treat your art like the real business it is? Set your creative business up for success with Intentional Goal Setting & Business Planning!
In this foundational workshop, we’ll step back from the daily hustle and take an intentional look at your creative business as a whole. Through guided reflection and practical exercises, you’ll gain clarity on who you are as an artist, where you want to go, and how to build a business that supports your creative life.
Together, we’ll explore your big-picture vision, set meaningful goals, and begin drafting a simple, personalized art business plan rooted in intention, not overwhelm. You’ll also learn how to break big dreams into manageable steps and create systems that make your business feel organized, sustainable, and aligned.
This is the first workshop in the Art Business Series and is designed to give you a strong, confident foundation before diving deeper into marketing and professional materials.
Open to artists of all mediums and stages of business. Bring any numbers you have available (revenue, expenses, production totals), but don’t worry if you’re starting from scratch. Clarity begins wherever you are!
