How to get more work from your ideal client as a live event calligrapher or artist

Do you ever feel like you're on a creative business hamster wheel? Like, you're always sprinting but not really going anywhere? Or that you're stuck working for the same people who don't appreciate your work for only pennies in profit? Yeah… I remember those days very fondly. In fact, it shaped the business I have today, and is rooted in the lessons I teach in The Craft Academy. In today's interview, Surahbi from The Cambridge Calligrapher dropped this beautiful bombshell: "When you start working FOR your ideal client, you get more work FROM your ideal client." Isn't that just amazing?! It's so simple, yet so impactful. Start working for your ideal client (and even ideal clients you didn't even know existed) NOW, apply for TCA today!
