Creative Business Power Hour

Sometimes you don’t need another course…

You just need the opportunity to talk everything through with someone who understands what it’s actually like to build a creative business.

Someone who can look at what you’re doing, answer your questions honestly and help you work out your next steps.

That’s exactly what your Power Hour is for.

What could we talk about?

Your session can be shaped around whatever would be most useful to you, including:

• Turning your creative business idea into a plan
• Starting or growing your art classes and workshops
• Pricing your offers
• Finding and retaining customers
• Marketing your business
• Social media and content
• Growing an audience
• Creating new offers or income streams
• Working out what to focus on next

How it works

1. Tell me about your business

After booking, you’ll complete a questionnaire about your business or idea, what you’re currently struggling with and the question you’d most like answered.

If you already have a business, you can also share your website, social media accounts, current offers and anything else that would help me understand what you’re doing.

2. I’ll do my homework

I’ll take a proper look through everything before our call, so we don’t waste valuable time going over things I could have found out beforehand.

3. We’ll have our Power Hour

We’ll spend 60 minutes working through your questions, untangling the challenges and talking honestly about what I think could help.

This isn’t generic information or a set formula. The whole session will be shaped around you and your business.

4. You’ll leave with clear next steps

We’ll finish by identifying your three priority actions, so you leave knowing exactly what to focus on next.

I’ll send these over after our call, along with any useful links or resources we discussed.

Why book a Power Hour with me?

I’m not a business guru, and I’m not going to pretend I know everything.

But I have spent more than 10 years building Jessie’s Art Shed - from teaching art classes in my parents’ garage to running a busy art studio, managing a team, teaching hundreds of students and growing an online audience of more than 100,000 people.

Along the way, I’ve faced the same challenges that so many creative business owners face: pricing, finding customers, filling classes, managing money, marketing, social media, building a team and trying to work out what to do next.

I’ve already helped lots of creatives through my podcast and ebooks, but a Power Hour gives us the opportunity to make that advice completely bespoke to you.

I’ll be an open book. You can ask me anything, and I’ll share honestly what has worked for me, what hasn’t and what I would do if I were in your position.

Whatever I can do to help you during our hour, I will.

What’s included?

• A questionnaire before our session
• A review of your website, social media and other relevant information
• A focused up to 60 minute one to one video call
• Honest, practical advice tailored to your business
• Your three priority actions sent to you after the call

Is this for me if I haven’t started yet?

Absolutely.

Although Power Hours are primarily designed for people who already have a creative business, you can also book if you have an idea but don’t know how to get started.

We can use the session to explore your idea, shape your first offer, consider pricing and work out the practical steps needed to begin.

Who is it best suited to?

Power Hours are especially useful for:

• Artists and makers
• Art teachers
• Workshop hosts
• Creative educators
• Art studio owners
• People building a class based business
• Creative business owners who want help with marketing or social media
• People who want to grow an audience through story telling on social media

My experience is rooted in building Jessie’s Art Shed, so I’ll always be honest about whether something sits within my knowledge and experience.

If you book and I read your notes and don’t think I can help you, I will offer a full refund.

Ready to get unstuck?

Let’s spend an hour focusing completely on your business, answering the questions that have been going around in your head and creating a clear plan for what to do next.
