Want to turn your Drawings into Dollars $$$
Are you a super talented creative who has always wondered what it takes to run your own greeting card business, monetise your artwork and get your amazing artwork on the high street ?
Then this is the perfect course for you :)
Is this the course for you ?
It is if:
- You are creative and have lots of fresh ideas.
- You really want to get your self out there as an artist/creative.
- You are not sure how to get started on this path.
- You haven't got business people around you - just like me when I got started.
- You really want to make money around your family AND be your own boss !!
- I GOT YOU !!
Why Me ?
I have been working in the greeting card industry for 26 years now both as an in-house designer & freelance designer.
In 2009 I went freelance & set up I Drew This Publishing which I have now independently grown to a 6 figure business.
I had 0 business knowledge and so have learnt about every stage from scratch.
I am a straight talking female artist & avid roller skater on the side.
I take what I do very seriously but also understand the importance of a balanced healthy lifestyle.
I want you to make a success of your ideas and have poured as much of my experiences into this course to help reassure you and speed you through the things which I was unsure of - this really is all you need !!
