“YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS NEEDS TO SEE THAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING IT… BEFORE YOU CAN GO FOR IT!” - SHINAH


Today, I’m bringing you something different. 

FOUR SUPER-RELATABLE STORIES of women who started as calligraphy beginners, and are now Calligraphy Professionals. 

All four purchased the Pro Calligrapher Bundle in April 2022 and have already booked their first clients and are actively growing their businesses. 

  • Sher Pierre - Left-handed school teacher who always had good handwriting, and is now working to turn that passion into a more creative career
  • Nikki Davis - Graphic and web designer who started with copperplate, but wanted a more expressive and versatile style. Now, she incorporates calligraphy into her biz, creates fonts, does signage and more
  • Stacie Nomura - Special Ed teacher who lives in a small community in Hawaii and is going for her callig biz even though she NEVER thought entrepreneurship was open to her 
  • Mara Buhrmeister - Has a business degree and does marketing as her day job and is now using networking to get her first calligraphy jobs.

Why do I try my best to share a variety of student stories every time I market my calligraphy courses? 

Because your subconscious needs to see that SOMETHING IS POSSIBLE before you can even START to think about going for it yourself!

Having the right info and support can make things possible in your mind that you NEVER thought were possible before. So if you’ve ever dreamed of making money doing a craft you love, you’ve gotta check out: 

PRO CALLIGRAPHER BUNDLE OF COURSES

Gives you everything you need to go from complete calligraphy beginner, to developing a signature style, to SELLING your calligraphy so you can start to bring in some fun side income.  👉 crookedcalligraphy.com/courses
