COOMA: Diversify Your Creative Income
June 28 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SOUTH EAST ARTS
Creative businesses often need help to brainstorm all the possible ways to diversify their income streams (especially now!) and become more financially sustainable. Diversify Your Creative Income is an interactive workshop that allows participants to discuss the various general ways that creatives can make money (including services, goods and passive income), and includes practical exercises to help brainstorm those ideas.
This workshop examines:
+ Identifying your Core and Complementary Skills;
+ The Minimum Viable Offering;
+ Using a Skills Audit to inspire ideas;
+ How to identify a ‘good’ idea;
+ Helpful resources and more!
What do I get?
All participants of this workshop also receive:
+ Lifetime access to a dedicated Diversify Your Creative Income Dropbox folder full of additional resources and help;
+ Access to a dedicated webpage full of links and resources to help them get ahead in their creative business.
Who is it for?
This workshop is ideal for recent graduates, freelancers and anyone struggling with time, work and creativity. It’s also relevant no matter what your profession—filmmakers, writers, designers, visual artists, musicians, composers, dancers, performers—everyone can benefit from a quick introduction or refresher to the basics of time management and setting goals.
