Welcome to Get Paid For Your Creativity! I’m thrilled that you’re here because it means that you’re ready to turn your passions, your special talents and your ability to create true connection with your ideal audience into a thriving business you’ll love.
We’re all born with something that’s unique and special exclusively to us, it doesn’t matter if there are a million singers, painters, app developers, copywriters, photographers, pastry chefs in the world, no one can do what you exactly like you.
Think about the great creators in the world, no one can paint exactly like Picasso, therefore there’s only one Picasso, only one Kobe Bryant, one Steve Jobs.
The only difference between the individuals who make a living from their creative pursuits and those who do not is simple.
The ones who make money have learned how to take what they’re great at and create a connection to a very specific audience of people with a very specific problem they want solved. When you learn how to do this you’ll begin to create true value in the world and the world will gladly pay you for it.
That’s what this site and the ongoing library of products and programs I offer are designed to help you achieve. My goal is to provide you with resources to become crystal clear about the tangible value your work provides and to show how to communicate that value in everything you do – everyday!
Learn to do this, and you will be paid for your creativity!
On this page you’ll find valuable resources I’ve designed to help kick start your process.
The first is a two-part podcast series I created called: The Passion Based Business Plan!
In part one: I’ll show you how to uncover what you’re truly passionate about, that thing that makes you so excited you wake up every day ready to get to work.
You’ll also uncover what you should focus on selling, (even if it’s free) that’s the only way you’ll be able to turn your passion into a viable business, when you connect what you do, with a proven audience that truly wants what you have to offer and have the financial resources to purchase.
In part two: I’ll show how to get clear on your point of differentiation. As I mentioned at the top of this page that there can be million painters, bakers, yoga instructors, bloggers, book authors, photographers etc, but none of them can do what do exactly like you.
Once you’re clear on how you’re different from your competition you can use this information to pinpoint who your ideal customer and where they congregate. Having this clarity affects every level of your marketing:
– From the color palette of your website
– To your web copy
– What social media platforms you should focus on
– To the freebies offers you’ll create to entice your ideal customer to join your mailing list
– Even your pricing.
I’ll even show where to find active groups where your ideal target audience already hangs out so you can go out and start making in person connections with them immediately.
As a bonus, the podcast includes downloadable guides and easy fill-in-the blank worksheets to help you on your journey. For your convenience I’ve made this free training available to listen to on your favorite mobile device and I’ve provided links to the podcast on both iTunes and Stitcher so you can listen while exercising or relaxing on the sofa.
