There’s no shortage of advice out there for creatives who want to make money from their creativity. There are productivity hacks to marketing tricks to do’s and don’ts of being a freelancer.
It’s a challenge to NOT get overwhelmed, sifting through all the advice that ”experts” share on how to be a successful creator. But what I’ve noticed is that rarely does this advice have anything to do with their actual creativity!
Today’s guest is quite the opposite.
She’s someone who has really walked the walk—from doing creative projects for free to building her portfolio to getting press for her work—and she now helps other creatives turn their passion into profit by teaching the ways she’s done just that.
Lauren Hom is an award-winning designer, lettering artist, and educator who teaches artists how to grow their businesses and their confidence to keep pursuing their passion.
Lauren herself continues to stretch herself to create projects that challenge her creatively vs. always chasing the dollars. And wouldn’t you know, some of her MOST lucrative projects as an artist have come from work she did for free for herself.
Listen to the full episode to hear:
- Why it’s important to pursue both paid and unpaid projects to grow your experience and your brand
- How one project that didn’t get any press led to Lauren landing a $15,000 paid gig three years later
- The story behind Lauren’s program, Passion To Paid, and how she’s generated almost $1 million dollars with it
- What influenced Lauren to trade in her nomadic lifestyle and create a homebase
