Art Business Procedures to Keep You Organized (#81)

If you're an intentional artist, you're in the right place. In this episode, I'm wrapping up a month of talking about how systems can keep you organized and make you a more productive artist.

Today's solo episode focuses on the secret weapon of a successful art business — your art biz handbook. An art biz handbook is the number one way to organize every aspect of your business. If you're looking for ways to stay on top of the never-ending tasks that every artist faces, this episode is for you. You'll hear the step-by-step process that will keep you in control of every aspect of your schedule, how I have evolved systems that weren't working for me, and the satisfaction, productivity, and control that you can come to expect from an art biz handbook that is working for you.
