How I Handle Customer Service Issues As a Creative Business Owner

Originality & Uniqueness In Your Branded Elements

One of most reoccurring happenings that I’ve been seeing in the creative entrepreneurial world lately in a lack of authenticity and originality. It appears as if everyone wants to do the same thing, which is actually not a bad thing. Its only bad when individuals fail to, well be an individual, and produce content that…

Investing In Yourself

I’ll be the first to say that I’m a huge proponent of investing in yourself, especially as an entrepreneur.  However, many times we really don’t know what areas of our businesses to invest in.  Figuring out if you need to invest in your website’s design, branding, conferences, courses, etc. can be daunting and overwhelming.  Even…
