Let the other artists starve.

There’s a wall that longs to bare your soul. And it’s time you let it. Art is serious business. You’ve spent hours deciding how to hold your brush in a way that produces a perfect stroke – a dose of style all your own. You’ve painted over at least 26 canvases. And you finally feel like a master (well, sort of). Maybe it’s that creeping uneasiness in your stomach, the one that shows itself when you’re talking to a potential customer, that makes you think you’re not a pro. You lack confidence but truly, you have mastered your art. Now master your business. And then get back to your easel!

Together, we’ll discover the people who see the same feelings in your art that you put into it. You’ll bypass all those basic mistakes, benefitting from my years of experience in the online art movement. We’ll set up your website together, ensure you have high-quality photographs that will wow your potential customers, and explore various options to showcase and sell your art. I’ll arm you with knowledge so you can harness control of your business, charge what you’re worth, develop gorgeous branding that customers drool over, and totally rock your marketing strategy. It’s everything you didn’t learn in art school, for a fraction of the cost!

You’ll feel confident, laser-focused, and seriously successful. And you’ll get handed money in exchange for your most gorgeous pieces. All. The. Time.

Stop hesitating. Don’t be scared to dream. Just make sure you do something about it.

How are we going to accomplish all of this? Easy.

Unleash Intensive
– We kick off the whole shebang with 3 hours on Skype. I come into this intensive having studied your current web presence and put together a critique that outlines what we need to work on. During your Unleash Intensive, I’ll clue you into our little outline and get to know your personality. And then we’ll dive straight into your first assignments to put you on the path to sales.

Action Plan & Business Plan
– We leave the session with a clear plan and a drawn out timeline for finding customers and making more money in your art business. During the first two months together, I’ll also write a Marketing Plan and a Revenue Plan for you to give you a clear picture of how your art business survives (and thrives!).

Weekly Live Sessions
– Sometimes we need to hash things out live, get you past some blocks, work out exactly how you’ll set up your product photos… Chat with me for 30 minutes a week on the phone or Skype.

Unlimited Email Access
– I type faster than a cheetah hot on a zebra’s ass. No long waits before a response. Unless I’m sleeping. Then all bets are off. Things are back and forth, flowing, relaxed. I teach you and give you some action steps, then you implement and email me back with questions. It works with ease, freeing up your mind for the important stuff.

Copy Sweep
– I run through your text with a fine-toothed comb and help you adjust for grammar, spelling, and consistency. Being that I’m a grammar-obsessed crazy pants, I’m pretty good at being your leading lady of copyediting.
Service provided for homepage, about page, and up to 10 product listings.

Risk-Free
– Sometimes you think someone is going to be a good fit, and then they’re not. If we work together for a few days and things just aren’t working out, you’ll get a full refund.

FAQs

How much time do I need to commit?

     Most people can make enough progress with 1-2 hours a day or 7 hours in a week. But like most things in life, the more time you give to something the better it turns out. I give homework based on each individual client’s time availability for their business. If you’ve got twenty hours, I can fill it. But if you only have seven, we’ll make it work.

     In addition to this time, we have a weekly call (Skype or telephone, your pick) that lasts about thirty minutes. It’s a chance for us to connect on a personal level, discuss more difficult concepts, and assign homework. Consulting calls are only effective if you get the help you need so that you can move on and get back to business. I’ve found that limiting phone time forces both of us to focus in on what really needs to be said so you do get that specific help and can get back to creating art or implementing business strategies.
You can, of course, email me at any time to get an answer to a question before our call or for any other reason. I love this because if you have a call on Tuesday and then run into an obstacle on Wednesday, you’re not waiting 6 days (or more in other coaching programs) to get that problem fixed. We talk it over through email and you can keep progressing each day until our next session.

Am I going to feel like one of hundreds of other artists you’re working with?

   I only work with 7 artists at a time. I’ve found that this is the most I can keep up with and still deliver the personalized attention and real connection with my clients that I think is essential to an effective consulting relationship. If I can’t remember what your art looks like because I work with so many people, then how can I advise you on what will work for YOUR business?

Will we talk about general business tips and strategies or will we look at what I need to do to grow my own business?

   100% the latter. I thoroughly believe that every business is different – even every art business. Hell, even every painter’s business! Your goals and the life you’re looking for are unique, the people who buy your art are unique, your personal preferences are unique. You should have a business that is a reflection of all that uniqueness going on and my job is to help you get there. Rest assured I will teach you things I believe will work for your unique situation.

How do I know if we’ll get along?

   I happily offer a little get-to-know you meeting before you commit. It’s a great chance to chat like friends and see if our personalities fit. It’s no fun to work in-depth with someone you don’t really like – for you or for me. This call is also a good opportunity to ask me questions so you can make a confident decision about working with me.

Will I be pushed? Will I have to leave my comfort zone?

   It depends on where your comfort zone is, but typically you will have to leave it. I don’t believe you can build a successful business without leaving your comfort zone. I have weaknesses too, but one of my greatest strengths is the way in which I push the people I teach. You won’t feel bullied, but rather lovingly compelled to accomplish something that moves your business forward. And when you do accomplish it, we celebrate. Because I understand how much personal strength it takes to push through resistance and do something scary and that deserves to be celebrated.

How much does it cost?

   My consulting packages range from $170 for one session to $2500 for 5 months.

 

Consulting isn’t for everyone and I want to make sure each artist I work with is going to get the most out of our time together. Please apply by filling out the form below. You’ll receive confirmation within 48 hours and if I know I can help you we will set up a time to talk about which package is right for you (effectiveness for your current level, time commitment, and financial investment).

Also remember that I can only take on 7 consulting clients at a time to be able to offer the very best attention for each artist. Apply as soon as you know you’re interested because I may be booked a couple months in advance.

Have questions? I’d love for us to discuss the future of your life as an artist. If this is what is in your heart, you have to make it happen! You’re worth it. Let’s do this! You can apply here for a free 30 minute chat with me about your business and whether consulting with me is the right fit for you.
