Hello Reader,
Things are buzzing with all the shows we currently have going on at the agency. Winter should feel like a good reset, but even the cold can't stop the busyness sometimes.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I really making money from my creative practice?”—you’re not alone.
Understanding your end of year P&L is one simple way to empower your year ahead as an artist or entrepreneur.
Specifically, did you turn a profit? "Making money," isn't just covering your expenses and time.
Profit is a resource you can reinvest in your work to grow a sustainable practice.
Profit gives you more time in the studio.
Our next strategy session — November 10 | 10 AM ET

This 90-minute hands-on workshop will help you build your Profit & Loss (P&L) statement—a crucial financial tool that reveals your revenue, costs, and profit. More than just a document, a solid P&L help business owners:
- See where money is coming from and where it’s going
- Make informed decisions about pricing, expenses, and financial goals
- Understand what’s drives profit (or holds it back!)
- Be ahead of the curve for tax time
We'll cover:
- Defining revenue streams (services, sales, rentals, etc.)
- Identifying variable costs (supplies, contractors, travel)
- Understanding fixed expenses (rent, insurance, utilities)
- Building a P&L tailored to YOUR practice and business
RSVP and invite a fellow creative or entrepreneur—because talking about money gets easier when we do it together.
Keep going,
Scott
