Whether you’re running the corner doughnut shop or a full-time touring band, the path to success is the same.
Start with what makes you unique. Build the systems you need to scale and grow. And apply simple business concepts to create a profitable and lasting enterprise that represents your values and your creative genius.
This works in every industry. Even yours.
I created the Artists Marketing & Business Academy to teach you what you need to know to create a successful, sustainable career doing what you love.
The ArtistsMBA gives you what you need to succeed, whatever stage you are at in your business. You will gain:
- The ability to envision your success and create an actionable, step-by-step plan to get there.
- The nuts and bolts skills necessary to creating a strong, sustainable business.
- Confidence to take action and implement your new knowledge and skills
- An approach to both online and real-world marketing that eliminates the ickiness of sales and uses what makes you unique to attract your ideal clients/customers/fans.
- The leadership skills to develop your platform and make a difference in the world.
- And more…

“I’ve been working the ‘S.P.E.C.I.A.L.’ steps outlined in “The Roadmap to Success” class and am having a great time doing it. Inventive, inspiring and creative stuff that’s taking the drudgery out of the business side.”
“I just want to let you know how important Artist’s EDGE is to me. I was in a challenging work situation and listening to your ArtistsMBA classes was one of the things that balanced me.”
I listened to your class on Internet Marketing and Social Media last week and I implemented just a few of your suggestions and had my best Twitter week ever!
“I trusted you and I persisted.
And I’m here to tell you, it works. It’s amazing.”
