WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO

Ten things. Ten honest answers.

This isn't a guide you read and file away. It's a scorecard you fill in.

You'll go through the ten things every artist needs in place to make a proper living from their work. For each one you mark yourself: yes, partly, or no. At the end you add up your score and you'll land in one of three bands and you'll know, in black and white, what to fix first.

Most artists find the gaps aren't where they expected. It's rarely the painting. It's usually one or two unglamorous things that have been quietly capping their income for years.

The three bands:

0 - 3 Hobby setup. You're making work. You're not yet running a business. That's fine, but it explains a lot.
4 - 6 Foundations laid. The pieces exist but nothing's joined up. This is where most artists get stuck, and it's the most fixable place to be.
7 - 10 Business running. The basics are in. From here it's about consistency and scale, not more setup.

You'll need a pen and a few minutes of honesty. That's it.

Is this you?

This is for you if:

You're selling your work, or you're serious about starting to.
You want your art (or art workshops/courses) to be your income, not your hobby with occasional sales.
You're willing to look honestly at what isn't working and get into fixing this.
You'd rather have a clear diagnosis than another list of tips.

This isn't for you if:

You paint purely for pleasure and have no intention of selling.
You dabble with teaching and have no interest in making an income this.
You're looking for a quick trick, rather than the actual foundations.
You'd rather not know the answer.

I'd genuinely rather you didn't download it than download it and never open it.

WHO'S BEHIND THIS

Hi, I'm Sophie.

I'm a working artist, experienced teacher and a fully qualified, award-winning business coach.

I've spent over 15 years helping business owners get the clarity and the practical skills to actually make money, and for the last several years I've done that specifically with artists. I'm also building my own art business again right now, using exactly the ten things in this scorecard. So this isn't theory I read somewhere. It's what I'm doing this week.

No guru nonsense - just a real, down to earth middle-aged woman building a business and sharing her journey.
