Skillshare: The Best Resource for Creatives & Entrepreneurs on a Budget

Interested in learning something new?

Well, I want to tell you about one of my absolute favorite resources for doing just that - and it’s at a totally affordable price! Plus you can get two months FO’ FREE right here :)


I’ve had a Skillshare subscription from the very beginning of my business, and I can honestly say that a lot of the skills I’ve learned throughout my five years of Letter Lane have been from taking a variety of classes on Skillshare.

I’ve taken classes ranging from topics of business and entrepreneurship to learning hand lettering and calligraphy to creative writing to watercolor, and so much more.

And the best part? It’s SO. AFFORDABLE!

When you’re just starting out with your business, money is tight (I remember that part very well). But you also want to be learning #allthethings so that you can get your business moving forward and off the ground.

Skillshare was honestly my saving grace back when I first started. I learned from the experts who were at the level I wanted to eventually be at too, and for such an amazing price, it felt like a no-brainer. And I am so, so glad I decided to sign up! It’s easily been one of the best investments in my business, and brought me farther along in my journey than I would have been without it, no doubt.

So, to give you a little taste of the amazingness of Skillshare, I wanted to share some of the classes I’ve taken and loved!
