“It is hard to start a creative business. And yet, it is SO doable and so fulfilling.”
- Shinah
This episode of The Shinah Show is just a little bit different! This week, I answer questions from the audience — that’s right, it’s a Q&A episode where I share the creative business secrets that y’all have been so curious about!
I put out the call for questions on my Instagram (@crookedcalligraphy) and the response did not disappoint!
Hit play on this episode to hear my answers to questions including:
“How did you know when you were ready to start selling your work?”
“How can I grow my business on Instagram?”
“How do I get clients?”
“What systems are important to set up first?”
“How do you figure out pricing?”
“Are there any sure and safe calligraphy ventures to get started with?”
Since you all were so honest in your questions, I’m going to be just as candid with my answers — you’re going to learn my real opinions on pricing, operations, and getting the clients you deserve, so let’s get started!
