Business Skills for Artists

This role-playing, exercise-based class will teach freelance artists how to negotiate with clients and get paid for the work that they do.

Participants will go over how to meet and communicate with clients, and how to pitch your business effectively to get that call back. We'll answer important questions like "Should you create a rate card?" and "How do I approach that horrendous price negotiation process?" They will also look at the importance of treating yourself as the CEO. Artists tend to forget that they are also the CEO, sales, marketing, operation and digibtal media of their own business.
