Artists and Profit Makers: an online community and mentorship program for creatives who want to make like artists and profit like businesses by Megan Auman

Hi there! I’m designer, metalsmith, and educator Megan Auman and I teach artists and makers how to profit from their creativity. I firmly believe that art, craft, and design make the world a better place, which is why I hate to see artists and makers undervaluing their work.

Whether that’s underpricing, burning out, or not marketing or selling to their full potential because they “don’t want to bother people,” I want to see artists and makers ditch the guilt and fear and start making real money from their work.

Here at Artists & Profit Makers, I share business advice I’ve learned running my eponymous jewelry line over the past seventeen years – everything from pricing to wholesale to product photography to yes, sales and marketing.

But more than that, I help artists and makers bring their businesses into Alignment so you can build a business that makes you money AND makes you happy!

I’m headed to NYC at the end of the week for the gift fair (I’ll be exhibiting), so I spent most of yesterday in my office making little catalogs for the cozy/cuff.  I decided to go the DIY route for my catalogs partly out of budgetary concerns, and partly because none of my online printing …
