Business & Marketing for Creatives: Building a Sustainable Creative Business Without Burning Out

You didn’t start your creative business to become a full-time marketer, content creator, or spreadsheet manager—yet here you are, trying to juggle it all.

This 3-hour seminar is designed specifically for creatives who want to grow a real, sustainable business without overwhelm, gimmicks, or sacrificing their creative joy.

Led by an instructor with 20+ years of experience in business and marketing and the founder of multiple six-figure businesses, this seminar strips away the noise and focuses on what actually works for creatives in the real world.

We’ll break down:

• How to approach marketing and social media strategically (without it taking over your life)

• What branding really is—and how to build one that feels authentic instead of forced

• The most common (and costly) mistakes small creative businesses make—and how to avoid them

• How to set up strong foundations now so you’re not constantly fixing things later

This isn’t a hype session or a one-size-fits-all formula. It’s a practical, honest look at how creative businesses grow—and how to grow yours with clarity and confidence.

Each attendee will leave with a guided workbook, filled out during the seminar, so they walk away with:

• Clear next steps

• A simplified marketing plan

• A brand foundation they can build on immediately

Perfect for artists, makers, creatives, and small business owners at any stage who want less chaos and more clarity.
