Have you always wanted to know what financials you should be looking at? Do you know if your prices are in line with the market? Are you charging enough for your creative products or services?

Come to this workshop to learn about some best financial practices for creative product and service based businesses. Hear from a financial expert and others in the field to learn if your gross profit margin is what it should be, how you can make more profit, and what should you be looking at when analyzing your finances.

Presenters Veronica Edwards, Reggie Tidwell, and Gwynne Rukenbrod Smith will jointly teach this workshop to offer a variety of perspectives on pricing in the creative industry.

The Pricing for Profit workshop is part of the Craft Your Commerce Workshop Series Beyond the Studio: Financials and Operations.
