90: What Is the "Art of Business?"
Oct 12, 2023As we prepare for our upcoming conference Immersion Live—centered around this very concept—I wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts on what the art of business means for professional creatives. Because the art of business goes beyond simply making money from your craft—It's about finding that delicate balance between your creativity and the business side of your brain.
As a professional creative, you not only need to master your art, but also understand how to monetize it, market it, and manage the business sustainably. Throughout this episode, we'll explore the challenges many creatives face when it comes to the business side of their endeavors and how to embrace the art of doing business so you can position yourself for success without compromising your creative life.
"I think that entrepreneurship is creative. I actually think it's much like creating art."

EVERYTHING I NEED & MORE
This podcast has helped me so much in just a few months. It feels like Bonnie always knows what I need to hear! I love that she shares honestly and openly about the good & bad of creative business. And I cannot thank you enough for the free downloads. I know those take work and time to create, and I am immensely grateful that you give those out for free. Thank you for everything, Bonnie!
