Business Coaching for Artists

If you are a visual artist with big ambitions emerging in the professional field, then these Artist Business Coaching sessions are your essential support.

Booked individually, each coaching session represents a huge leap towards your sustainable and fulfilling arts career.

These sessions will suit you if you’re a visual artist aiming to build a long term professional art career.

It is useful both for artists who have studied and those who are self-taught.

Each session focuses on one specific topic and we dive deep into your personalised success strategy.

Choose from the following topics:

Gaining publicity for your work
Gallery representation strategy
Website presentation
Portfolio selection and organisation
Unique Value Proposition – how to explain your work to people so they want to buy/show it
How to host a successful self-produced show (four month plan provided)
Social media and other audience building strategies (even if you ‘hate’ social media)
Confident networking
Positioning and pricing your art
Authentic sales conversations (whether in DM on Instagram or during a studio visit or show)
Income stream mapping (defining how you’ll reach your yearly financial goals)
Your studio schedule and how to stick to it (time and energy management)
Grant funding and residency overview
Online outposts (which are the best places to sell online outside of your website and social media)
Mailing list implementation and content

At the end of each session you’ll have the knowledge you need to take confident action and see fast results.

You receive so much more than ‘just’ a session!

You receive:

A preliminary questionnaire prior to the call. We won’t waste any time figuring out where you’re at and what you need help with.
A 60 minute coaching session. We’ll emphasise to-the-point, personalised consultation and knowledge transfer. This session can be recorded on request.
A follow up email after the session. This includes a summary of the discussion, a list of your actions to take and any templates, worksheets or links that are important for your success.
Another follow up email one month later. I check in with you about the successes and challenges you’re facing in the implementation. This is great accountability and I want to give you that extra encouragement.

You receive all of the above for a coaching fee of 150€

HERE’S HOW TO BOOK:

Step One: Use the scheduler below to book and pay for your coaching session on one topic.

You’ll answer a few basic questions such as your desired topic. If you’re unsure of the most important topic, you can simply say ‚unsure‘ or give your best guess. I’ll email additional questions to establish your next most important step. Be sure to fill out all the other questions on booking.

Step Two: Once you’ve booked and paid I will email you with a few more focused questions regarding the topic you wish to cover.

Allow 24-48 hours for this. It’s personalised to you. You will need to return your answers to me 48 hours prior to our session.

Step Three: Show up to our session with your notebook, your pen and your focus.

Step Four: I send you a follow up email with your action steps and helpful templates/worksheets/links that will support you in the implementation.

I suggest you immediately book time into your schedule to complete the important actions.

Step Five: One month later, I’ll email you to see how it’s going. You can share your successes and challenges. This email serves as great accountability and provides that extra encouragement to keep on achieving your goals.
