March 21, 2016 Brittany Russell

This is part two of my guest post for The Higgins Creative, where I'm giving solid advice and tips on how to market yourself as an artist. Read PART ONE here.

Selling yourself (and your business) is hard.

However, as an artist (and a business owner, in general) you need to be able to do exactly that in order to make sales. For new artists and business owners, it’s hard to even know where to start or what options are available for making yourself and your business known. Luckily, I’m here to help! I’m going to break down a list of ways for you to market yourself and your business, and how you can start reaching your audience and potential customers today!

My Favorite Tools For Running My Freelance Business

February 16, 2016 Brittany Russell
Interested in the tools it takes to run a freelance hand lettering, calligraphy and design business? I'm sharing the essentials and my favorite business tools I use on a daily basis. Click through to read the full post! Photo via Viktor Hanacek @vik…

As a solo freelancer, I wear all the hats and do #allthethings, and there is pretty much always a never-ending list of to-do's. I'm in charge of client communication, social media posts, blog posts, website updates, finances and most importantly, creating. So, in case you've been wondering what tools I use to run my business, I'm going to break it down for you right here. I should mention that these are not ALL of the tools I use, as that would be a verrrry long post. These are just the essentials and my favorites!

Why Freelancing? (Why I Started & Why I Believe Freelancing Has More Job Security Than a 9-5)

February 9, 2016 Brittany Russell
PHOTO BY Viktor Hanacek @viktorhanacek

Interested in quitting your 9-5 and starting a freelance gig? I'm sharing why I started freelancing and why I believe freelancing has more job security than a 9-5 job. 

Alright, now before I get started, I just want to acknowledge the fact that I know that not all of you are going to agree with me on this topic, and that's okay! I should also mention right now that the second half of this post is NOT for you if you currently have a 9-5 job that you love. Now I know that not everyone is wanting to start their own business, nor should they: it's not for everyone. This is just what I believe, and I would love to share why I believe it with you :)

Now that we are already more than a month into 2016 (wait, what?), I am taking a good, hard look at my goals for the year. I'll admit, some of them are pretty hefty, but I've already achieved one of my biggest goals, which was to rebrand my business, and that has truly inspired me to keep working toward the other big items on my list. I mentioned in my previous post that I would be going more in-depth on my goals for 2016, so here we go! And make sure to stick around till the end because I've got a great (free!) resource for you to use to help you plan out your own goals for the year! :)
