One-to-One Coaching
Make a wish list of what it would take for you to have the lifestyle you want as a professional artist. Full disclosure: we don't have a fairy godmother for art marketing, but we do have ways of making wishes into results. One-to-one coaching can help you focus so that you can take the right action. No sharing the air with other artists here. Just you and a skilled advisor looking at improving your situation.
You can use the time to work on specific art and business issues or build a plan for the next 6 to 12 months. You'll get what you need and keep your art career on track and moving forward.
If you are really committed to making progress NOW, ask Aletta about her popular JumpStart Package. Special introductory rates for artists who qualify. E-mail Aletta@ArtistCareerTraining.com.
