How Art Biz Success Is Evolving in 2020 (#42)

Art Biz Success has been around since 2002, but we have probably
undergone more changes in our business in the last two years than
in the previous ten years combined.

In this episode I'm joined by team member Kristen O'Neill as we
walk you through the biggest changes. They're all based on three
major insights I had during a self-reflective process.
I enjoy working live and in person. I like to
travel and hold the energy of a large group throughout a workshop.
This can be exhausting, but it also feeds me. And I think I’m good
at creating an excellent experience for workshop participants. I
learn more when I’m there in person. However, I don’t enjoy
launching ads, emails, and promotions to try to fill a room and
being on the hook for thousands of dollars to a venue.

To satisfy this part of me, I'm organizing half-day marketing
plan workshops throughout the country in 2020. You can find out
how to invite me to your city here:

my scheduled workshops are taking place here:

I enjoy helping ambitious artists who have a solid
studio practice. I enjoy helping them shore up their
foundation or review everything they have in place as they prepare
for growth and are ready for a new phase in their artist journey.

My super power is helping artists create sustainable business
systems that can support long-term growth. I do not enjoy working
with wishy-washy artists who kinda sorta maybe think they might
want to do something with their art. There are creativity coaches
and therapists to help with that. It’s not my gift.


I've spent the better part of 2 decades perfecting the Art Career
Success System and believe strongly that it can give you a strong
business foundation. See http://artcareersuccesssystem.com.
I most enjoy working with artists who are more advanced
in their careers. They have their foundation in place and
are thinking beyond entry forms and juried shows. They’re carefully
crafting their career course, and I’m good at helping them develop
creative business strategies that can support their growth.

I also know that artists get further faster when they are part of
a community of like-minded artists. For this reason, I have
created small group virtual masterminds for artists who are
focused on sales, teaching, or community projects. See

Thank you for letting me share this news with you. It means a lot
that you're here and stick with me through the changes.
