How Do You Know if a Class or Workshop is Right for You? (#122)


Listen Later

The resources you have for art business and career development are endless. In that respect, you are incredibly fortunate compared to artists of the past who had so little to help them make a go of it. And there is a downside. There are so many choices to grow as a professional artist that it's difficult to decide where to spend your time and money.

How do you decide? How do you know when to invest, and when to save your money?

Let's pretend you are my coaching client and you're debating adding something to your calendar. I caution all students and clients to be judicious about adding more to their already full schedules.

This episode is focused on the questions I'd ask to help you decide whether or not a program is right for you. These include ...

What do you want to get from this program?

Is this program a shiny distraction?

Are you in a place to receive the guidance?

Do you respect the presenters, teachers, or leaders?

How is this program different?

Are you willing to devote the time to the lessons and homework?
