Creative Business Summit

With 26 years of experience as an artist, designer and creative entrepreneur, this creative business mentoring program brings together practical strategies, hard-won lessons and creative wisdom from a career built around working with clients around the world.

The philosophy is refreshingly anti-hustle. Creative businesses should feel good to run, rather than become a source of burnout or endless pressure to scale. Happiness is a core value, with a focus on helping artists, designers, writers, photographers, makers and other creatives build sustainable lifestyle businesses that provide financial security, creative fulfilment, freedom and flexibility.

As the organiser and host of The Creative Business Summit, a dedicated conference for artists, designers, writers, photographers, makers and creators, the program is grounded in a deep understanding of the realities of creative entrepreneurship.

The mentoring program helps creatives ditch the starving artist mentality, price their work confidently and profitably, manage projects and clients with ease, communicate and market their offerings effectively, develop their creativity and build a business around their ideal lifestyle.

This is creative business mentoring for anyone who wants to make good money from their talents without sacrificing creativity, wellbeing or freedom — because a successful creative business should make life better, not simply make the business bigger.
