It’s time we talk about our business finances! Today’s guest is Dondrea Owens! She is the owner of The Creative’s CFO. As a certified public accountant, she specializes in helping small business owners know their numbers, so that they can grow their profit, up-level their life, and keep more money while doing it.
This content is specialized to YOU. This isn’t some advice for restaurant business owners or manufacturing businesses. Nope — she’s sharing common mistakes that creatives make — designers, photographers, artists, wedding industry pros, copywriters, and even coaches. You’ll walk away from this episode with a better understanding of your business finances and the confidence to make smarter money decisions going forward.
She’s sharing 7 common money mistakes that creative women make in their businesses, and some of these mistakes you might be making RIGHT NOW. I certainly resonated with a few of these as being mistakes I’ve made in my business early on. We’re also giving you key ways to correct the mistake going forward.
An invitation for you: If you’re listening to this LIVE, then I’ll be doing a live webinar today (Tuesday, July 28th) with Dubsado. I’m sharing 5 Secrets for Using Dubsado to Attract and Book More Ideal Design Clients. If you’re a graphic designer, this is for you! And, Dubsado is having their BIG SUMMER SALE on July 27th - July 31st. To get an additional 30% off during their already amazing sale, use the code “ELIZABETH30” to save.
