The month-by-month online membership for creative professionals who want to build a business that gets more sales
Do you want to get more sales online, at events, through commissions, galleries or wholesale? But feel unsure what to focus on first, overwhelmed by marketing, or frustrated that your hard work is not turning into consistent sales results?
Most creatives were never taught properly how to run a business.
And yet, you’r expected to somehow know how to:
- Juggle all the different parts of your business
- Price your work properly so you make money and don’t lose sales
- Improve your website and get better traffic
- Turn interest at events or on your website into actual buying clients (not just more ‘likes’ or browsers!)
- Create & launch collections – at the right time of the year to get more sales
- Market consistently and creatively in an ever-changing and more competitive market
- Grow your email list, know what to write about, and stand out from the AI-generated stuff
- Work with galleries and make the most of craft fairs, markets or trade shows
- Create a business that works financially and pays you a half-decent salary
That’s exactly why we created The Business Club!
The Business Club is our one-stop 6-months business & marketing learning and doing programme for ambitious professional creatives who want practical support, clear direction and expert guidance to build a stronger, more profitable business.
This is not just another business or marketing course.
Inside The Business Club you’ll get:
- 4 live online sessions EACH month (June – December)
- Expert workshops & masterclasses
- Group coaching, Q&A’s, Hot Seats, marketing reviews
- Creative interviews with successful professionals sharing honestly about their challenges, successes & mistakes
- Accountability and co-working sessions to get jobs done
- and IMMEDIATE access to 80+ practical video recordings to learn from the experts & get inspiration whenever you need it
We don’t just teach you WHAT to do and WHEN in the year, but also HOW to apply this to your own business and situation.
So you actually will take action.
Every month follows a clear structure and builds strategically on the previous business and marketing topics, because successful creative businesses are built through connected systems, not random marketing tactics:
Week 1 = expert session to learn from our hand-picked experts in their field e.g. gallery buyers, social media experts
Week 2 = group session to ask your questions, share your challenges, learn from and with other creatives
Week 3 = creative session to learn & get inspired by a successful creative
Week 4 = co-working & accountability session to focus for 2 hours at the end of each month on a job you have been putting off
Over the next 6 months we’ll focus in The Business Club on:
- Improving your online sales and traffic through keywords, email marketing & social media
- Wholesale & trade incl. galleries and interior designers
- Improving your branding & photography
- Make the most of selling events, incl. craft fairs, trade shows and open studios
- Getting & managing commissions and working in the high-end luxury sector
- Get Christmas sales
- Manage yourself, your time & your energy
Each month a different topic and theme, so month-by-month over the next 6 months you will build your business and marketing to get more sales online, in person, from trade & galleries and Christmas.
You’ll learn directly from experienced experts and creative professionals who understand how small creative businesses actually work.
Whether you are full-time or part-time, selling products, art, commissions or services, The Business Club will help you build stronger business & marketing skills, improve your confidence, and create more consistent sales.
The doors to our 2026 mid-year Business Club membership will be open from Tue 16 – Thu 18 June at 8pm UK only. The next intake will be in early January 2027. £249,- incl. VAT for 6 months. You can pay in 3 monthly instalments with PayPal Later.
“I love the format of live sessions where you can join in and ask questions, but you can always catch up later with the recordings, which is super helpful. As well as the advice, I love The Business Club community. You pick up so many tips and inspiration – even as an older, established maker. Definitely worth at least double the cost of the membership! I make it back in sales in no time”

“The Business Club has become a fundamental part of my journey as a creative business owner. The sessions are clear, generous and grounded in real life. Every topic has taught me something new. Just as valuable is the community: members share their experiences so openly, and I always leave with practical steps to put into practice.”

When I first joined The Business Club I thought I would learn how to create, run and expand my creative business, but I was wrong … It is so much more. I’ve met amazing artists and become friends and accountability partners with people I would have never met otherwise. ”
