The joke’s on you (if you ignore this)


Numbers Knowhow

Hi Reader

Ever been promised ‘great exposure’ instead of actual money? Or said yes to a project, knowing deep down it wasn’t worth your time (or the fee)?

You’re not alone. Creatives get short-changed all the time, and it’s usually because we struggle to set clear financial boundaries.

“He who undervalues himself is justly undervalued by others.” - William Hazlitt

That needs to change. And it starts today.

PODCAST

Financial Boundaries for Creatives

In this episode, I delve into why setting financial boundaries is crucial for protecting your time, energy, and income.

BUT financial boundaries aren’t just about structure - they’re about confidence. That’s exactly what our Be Your Own Boss course helps you build.

What you’ll learn:

  • What is meant by ‘being your own boss’
  • The risks involved in being your own boss
  • Running a new enterprise

Building a thriving creative business starts with the right decisions … one step at a time.

Want to stop second-guessing your finances and start running your creative business with confidence? Tune in to the From Creative Passion to Profit podcast - your weekly reality check (with a side of motivation) to help you Plan it, Do it, & PROFIT!
