PART 1: Professionalize Your Profile

Click the arrows to see more details on the course

WEEK 1: Talking

Objective: Talk about your art with confidence

Description

You’ve been creating your latest art project for more than a year and still when your family asks, “What are you working on?” you don’t know what to say. Or you serendipitously meet a curator and when they turn to you and say, “What do you do?” you’re tongue-tied.

A good introduction is a concise, compelling description of you and your latest project—and is the basis for all your marketing and connecting the world with your art. It sounds so simple! But it’s not easy. If crafting those few sentences that convey who you are and what you do hasn’t been a breeze for you, you’re not alone.

In this lively workshop, Public speaking coach and author of The Artist's Guide to Grant Writing, Gigi Rosenberg, will show you how to distill years of work on a project into a memorable hook that has many uses: virtual introductions, videos, in-person meetings, grant applications, follow-up calls with the funder, bio statements, press packets, and more.

What we cover

This session answers questions like:

  • How do you condense years of work on a project into a sentence or two?
  • What’s important to emphasize?
  • How do you begin and end?
  • What if you have several projects in the works?
  • How do I look and sound my best in person, on the phone or in an online meeting?

Additional Assets:

  • 4-pages of follow-along worksheets so you can start to create your introduction
  • 8-page PDF guide to elevator speeches, “How to introduce yourself with grace and authority” which includes artwork from all the featured artists

Breakdown:

Would you like to know how to get paid for your hard-earned art skills every month? And what if you could do it from home or your studio in just a couple of hours per week? Now it is possible -- thanks to online workshops.

  • But what tech should you use? Teachable or Zoom or...
  • How do you structure your offer? For beginners, or coaching, or…
  • And most importantly: How do you get paying students and make them stick?

All this is answered in step-by-step, fill-in-the-blanks detail in our newest course, “Get Paying Students Online”.

Born in response to the call for help from our alumni who suddenly lost their face-to-face workshop income because of COVID-19, this blueprint is the fastest offering we have to take you from zero to your first $3,000 in 30 days.

The results have been so fast and impressive that we now recommend all our high-end private coaching clients to start with this online workshop.

Importantly, we find that artists who try to figure this out on their own most often fail or get underwhelming results, making mistakes like first announcing a class in their newsletter or social media and hearing crickets in response.

Instead, in this bonus program, you receive proven word-for-word templates that sell, in the right order to fill your online workshops.

See what some of our students are saying about their results:

Melissa filled 2 online student cohorts in just 6 weeks for ~$3,000

Carol filled her first online workshop by facilitating Drawing+Meditation

Sally made $3,000 from her first-ever online workshops offer

Beth turned her creative journaling practice into a paid online workshop

What we cover

Here are the five pillars of our A B C D E formula to get paying students online:

[A] ATTRACT
  • How to start an email list from zero and build it up to 100 email subscribers
  • How to start a social media account from scratch and build it up to 100 contacts
  • The 10 minute tactic that connects you with new interested students daily
  • How to leverage other people's audiences to get featured for free in front of their audience
[B] BUILD
  • How to craft your workshop proposal in a way that others immediately understand it and want it
  • How to refine your pricing so that you are maximizing your earnings in every cohort
  • How to set up the technology back end so that students can easily enroll and pay through just one link
  • Multiple options from free to advanced tech tools to deliver your workshops
[C] CONVERT
  • The three waves for converting your audience into paying students -- and why it is critical not to skip steps
  • Proven scripts that magically transform interest into cash
  • The psychology behind effective sales copywriting that makes people feel special while at the same time converting them into clients
  • A “low-hanging fruit” strategy you can use every month once you have an audience and an ongoing paid workshop program
[D] DELIVER
  • Best practices to prepare before the workshop
  • Best practices to successfully facilitate your live workshop
  • Best practices to improve upon every completed workshop
[E] EXTEND
  • How to get students to stick with you, even before they finish your first workshop
  • How to turn your happiest students into your free sales force

You also get 8 coaching call video recordings from a private mastermind, where you can learn from other students progressing through the milestones as they get results by implementing our blueprint.

Apply for the Professional Artist Accelerator

Step 1: review the brochure for all details

Step 2: Submit Your Application To Join

What do great applications look like?


Understanding: How will the Professional Artist Accelerator aid your growth?

Alignment: What's the relationship between your goals and what we can provide?

Openness: What examples do you have of being open to personal change and transformative experiences?

Your application will require intention and curiosity, but you're ready even if it doesn't feel that way.

Believe in possibility and jump in below.

Artist website, portfolio (link only), Instagram, etc.

We recognize there may be factors that impact the ability of artists to join our coaching program. This might be due to conversion rates to USD, a sales slump, or other financial limitations. We’ve created this scholarship to help those who would not have access to the Professional Artist Accelerator without financial support, and who have shown a history of determination, setting big goals aligned with their values, and prioritizing impact through their art.

It's important to know this scholarship reduces tuition by $2,000 USD, reducing your set up fee from $2,990 to only $990, while maintaining the $399/mo coaching fee, and is limited to only a few seats per month. Admission as a scholarship student is more competitive than the traditional application. Learn more here.

What's next?

When our Admissions Team reviews applications we look for an understanding of how the coaching program will aid your art business growth, alignment between your goals and what we can provide, and most of all examples of being open to personal change and transformative experiences.

Drop us a line at [email protected] if there's anything you need while we review your application.

Please note we may need to have a brief phone conversation with you for clarity in our decision. We then aim to get back to you with a final verdict within 48h.

Are you an emerging artist looking to build your reputation while selling more of your work?

Maybe you’re a “second career” artist who is ready to go pro -- but feeling overwhelmed about where to start. 

Or perhaps you’ve put your art on the back burner for years and finally have the time again -- but so much is new, you feel like you’ll never be able to catch up. 

Whether or not you went to art school... 

… nobody ever taught you the business part of being a professional artist.

Imagine...

  • Having the confidence to “put yourself out there” and share your work widely
  • Bringing in enough art-based earnings to finally quit your day job
  • Knowing that your work is priced appropriately (and watching it sell!)
  • Exhibiting in galleries and museums alongside other artists you admire
  • Meeting collectors who look forward to buying your latest work
  • Teaching art from anywhere in the world, wherever you live or travel
  • Connecting with the biggest influencers in your field, who promote you to their audience for FREE
  • Making a much bigger impact with your art

3 Common Mistakes Fine Artists Make That Prevent Them From Creating A Sustainable Art Income


  • MISTAKE #1 - They think they need to “get more exposure”... but what they really need is exposure to the *right* audiences: those who not only LIKE their work - but actually BUY it.
  • MISTAKE #2  - They try to figure it all out by themselves instead of getting expert mentorship in the areas they know nothing about. Causing their art income to stagnate.
  • MISTAKE #3 - They fear that by focusing on the business side, their art will take a back seat and they’ll be stuck in front of a computer all day doing “marketing stuff”.

There's a strong chance you're struggling with
one or more of the following challenges


Your sales are sporadic and unpredictable

You're exhausted from doing everything on your own

You have no clear direction or plan, so you end up just freezing or procrastinating

People tell you “Oh you’re so talented”... but then, they don’t buy your art.

You fear spending too much time marketing your work and not having enough to create your art.

Everything You Will Ever Need to Write as an Artist

You could pretend...


You’ve never read any of the information on this page... bury your head in the sand... and convince yourself you will, one day, figure it all out by yourself. But do you really want…

  • The stress of not knowing where your future art sales are coming from?
  • Feel overwhelmed and burnt out because you’re doing everything on your own?
  • Experience a financial roller coaster every month because you don't have a stable Art Income Tripod?
  • Waste months, years, or even another decade figuring out how to run the business side of your art and feel constantly confused about what to do?

Now you know there's another way


A way build your very own Art Income Tripod© that will add an extra $£€ 5,000 to your monthly income within the next 12 months.

Click the button below and get yourself booked in for a free, brief, and informal chat with one of our art business consultants.

You'll share what you’re looking to achieve as an artist and why you feel getting help now is right for you.

Based on what you share, we’ll either invite you to a deeper consultation and share how it would look like to work with us, or recommend an alternative option. 

(Please note: we only select 15 artists to join us every month due to the high-touch nature of our program.)

Frequently Asked Questions


How much time will I need to go through the program? Busy months ahead...

To achieve a new specific result every week, expect to dedicate at least 5 hours per week.

If you can't carve out 5 hours per week then this program is not for you.

This includes times when you will be on holidays, need to rest and renew, or get distracted.

You have half a year's time to go through your roadmap and achieve the transformation you want.

We want you to be successful, and the whole program is oriented toward taking step-by-step action.

Is the content geared more toward US artists, or is it applicable worldwide?

The program has been designed for a global audience.

We have instructors in Asia and from Europe/UK.

Past students have come from Australia, the Netherlands, Spain, Canada, and many other countries.

Humans are humans. Artists are artists.

We give you frameworks that get results no matter where you live.

If you adjust them to your local culture, you will have an edge, but 95%+ work anywhere in the world.

Do I need to be tech-savvy?

No, you don’t.

We have had students who felt uncomfortable with technology but successfully followed our step-by-step workshops, lectures, and templates.

Whenever we talk about tech (such as your artist website or Instagram account), we explain it in easy terms and simplify the focus to the few critical things that matter.

That way, you can focus on just what you need to get results, and you don’t have to spend hours “figuring out” the tech.
