The Art Biz How Art Biz Success Is Evolving in 2020 (#42)
In this episode I'm joined by team member Kristen O'Neill as we walk you through the biggest changes. They're all based on three major insights I had during a self-reflective process.
- I enjoy working live and in person. I like to travel and hold the energy of a large group throughout a workshop. This can be exhausting, but it also feeds me. And I think I’m good at creating an excellent experience for workshop participants. I learn more when I’m there in person. However, I don’t enjoy launching ads, emails, and promotions to try to fill a room and being on the hook for thousands of dollars to a venue.
To satisfy this part of me, I'm organizing half-day marketing plan workshops throughout the country in 2020. You can find out how to invite me to your city here: https://artbizsuccess.com/art-marketing-workshops. And see where my scheduled workshops are taking place here: https://artbizsuccess.com/marketing-workshop-registration.
- I enjoy helping ambitious artists who have a solid studio practice. I enjoy helping them shore up their foundation or review everything they have in place as they prepare for growth and are ready for a new phase in their artist journey.
My super power is helping artists create sustainable business systems that can support long-term growth. I do not enjoy working with wishy-washy artists who kinda sorta maybe think they might want to do something with their art. There are creativity coaches and therapists to help with that. It’s not my gift.
I've spent the better part of 2 decades perfecting the Art Career Success System and believe strongly that it can give you a strong business foundation. See http://artcareersuccesssystem.com.
- I most enjoy working with artists who are more advanced in their careers. They have their foundation in place and are thinking beyond entry forms and juried shows. They’re carefully crafting their career course, and I’m good at helping them develop creative business strategies that can support their growth.
I also know that artists get further faster when they are part of a community of like-minded artists. For this reason, I have created small group virtual masterminds for artists who are focused on sales, teaching, or community projects. See https://artbizsuccess.com/artist-masterminds.
Thank you for letting me share this news with you. It means a lot that you're here and stick with me through the changes.
