Now, I know what you’re thinking. “That’s great for YOU Stacie, but I’m me. I’m still struggling to figure out how to make this thing work. I mean, I’ve sold some pieces here and there, but that’s not really sustainable.”
Don’t worry, friend. You’re an amazing artist, and you CAN do this. And you know what else? It’s NOT your fault.
The Truth Is, There Are Three BIG Problems That Hold Artists Back
These three big problems keep you stuck. It feels like you’re spinning your wheels yet gaining very little ground.
You Haven’t Found Your Artistic Voice Yet
You’re not sure what makes your art unique and special, so how will you explain it to the brands out there looking for art to license?
You’re Not Sure Where or How to Find & Attract Fans
Fans become customers. But how can they support you if they can’t find you? You’re not sure where they’re hanging out or how to reach them.
You Don’t Know How To Share & Market Your Art
There are tons of ways to sell your art, but you’re not sure what’s right for you or how to set up things like a website, brand guide, or portfolio.
Here’s the truth. If you want predictable income from your art, you need an art business and that means you’ll need to:
- Hone your personal style
- Tell your story authentically
- Organize and build your portfolio
- Pitch your work
- Learn to license
- Create and sell products
Whew! That’s a LOT, right?
As artists and entrepreneurs, our time and energy are incredibly valuable. Learn how to make the most of both in Leverage Your Art, my 8 week course, and get the most mileage from each piece of art you create.
As a fellow artist with a 15-year career in the industry, I’ll show you how I curate my own artwork to create full collections and illustrations, and “leverage” it across multiple income streams. Using art in as many ways possible creates endless opportunities for you as an artist and as a business owner. I can’t wait to show you how in this eight-week course.
Imagine eight weeks from now having a gorgeous portfolio that you share with confidence, collaborating with dream companies, creating your own heartfelt products to sell, and feeling the exhilaration and pride of growing your own business.
I’ve worked with THOUSANDS of artists over the last few years, helping them get their work out into the world in a big way. They’ve landed amazing licensing deals and created their dream lives as career artists, and Leverage Your Art’s 6-step blueprint is the key.
6 In-Depth Video Modules
With 100+ video lessons that thoroughly cover the Leverage Your Art 6-step blueprint.
Step 1: Uncover Your Signature Style
MODULE 1
Your Style IS Your Business
First, I’ll teach you how to refine a cohesive Signature Style in your body of work so you can give your existing art (and everything you create in the future) a strong foundation that’s marketable now.
Step 2: Develop Your Brand and Protect Your Work
MODULE 2
Brand Your Art Business and Legally Protect Your Work
Then I’ll show you how to develop a comprehensive Brand and Brand Story so you can stand out and build an audience of fans and followers who will buy your art. You’ll also learn what you need to do to make sure your work is protected.
Step 3: Create Your Portfolio and Website
MODULE 3
Professional Portfolios and Websites That Attract Buyers
Next, you’ll learn how to organize your artwork and create a professional portfolio and website that shows off your creative genius and unique brand. I’ll also teach you my special strategy to get your work into the world in five unique ways.
Step 4. License Your art
MODULE 4
Royalty Revenue
Ready for income that grows WITHOUT you having to continuously create new art? I’ll teach you how to generate recurring revenue through art licensing. You’ll learn how to research companies to pitch to, price your artwork, and pitch your portfolio for licensing deals. I’m even including my art licensing workflows to save you time and energy!
Step 5. Sell Your Art On Products
MODULE 5
Create and Sell Art on Products
Make your art work HARDER for you by creating your own products. Putting your art on products opens up a world of possibilities, and it’s so fun seeing your work on items people use. This includes step-by-step instruction on how to put your work on products from custom to manufactured to print-on-demand!
Step 6. Create Stability and Scale
MODULE 6
Craft a Stable Business That Scales
How far can you stretch your art? Lastly, we’ll explore additional ways to make money from your art. You’ll learn when and how to layer in different revenue streams so you’re generating MORE income from the same art. This step is the icing on the cake to creating a profitable creative business.
