Insider Information with Jacqueline Sava Clarke

One of our Kickstarter reward levels is a custom coaching session based on Jacqueline’s Maker to Making a Living workshops. This session can be custom tailored to your craft or creative business. Jacqueline will work with you to create the content you need to move forward in this exclusive half-day one-on-one business coaching session.

Jacqueline’s Coaching Goal: To help each person create a successful path for their craft, based on a sound and complete understanding and alignment of their dreams, needs, product offering and customers.

Do you ever wish there had been just one business class at art school? Are you facing more questions than answers related to your craft business? Jacqueline Sava Clarke did. Fast forward 15 years, Sava Clarke, post BFA and MBA, now leads workshops designed for craftspeople, designers and creative types, about transitioning from maker to making a living. “From maker to making a living” is a blog and workshop series designed to guide craftspeople through the process of understanding, designing and building their business. And now, Sava can also speak to independently publishing her book, Handmade Getaway!

There are just 4 days left to join our Kickstarter Campaign and claim one of our fun rewards and a first edition copy of Handmade Getaway!
