ONLINE (VIC): Diversify Your Creative Income

September 9 @ 10:00 am 12:00 pm

This is a CREATIVE PLUS BUSINESS event in partnership with Brimbank City Council | Creative Brimbank – INfuse Artist Networking Program

Surviving and thriving financially as a creative practitioner usually means doing more than one thing to make a living – but where to start, and what to do? 

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 a free interactive online 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.

BOOK NOW

This online workshop examines:
+ Defining your core, complementary and supplementary offerings;
+ Using a skills audit to help inspire new ideas and ways of thinking about making money;
+ The ‘cheat sheet’ – a collection of tried-and-true ideas including online sales, passive income, productifying a service, selling experiences, education, mentoring and more;
+ The testing process, and how to identify whether or not these ideas are actually “good”.

What do I get?
All participants of this online workshop also receive:
+ Lifetime access to a dedicated Dropbox folder full of additional resources and help.
+ A practical workbook to assist with the interactive elements of the workshops.
