The Summer of Money: a series of meetings on making money as a solopreneur

Riding the Revenue Rollercoaster

Having a career as a solopreneur is often compared to a thrill ride on a rollercoaster. The metaphor is apt for the highs and lows of creating a sustainable business. How do you prepare to enjoy the ride? What have you learned so far that helps you cope and thrive for the long run?

We’ll discuss hot topics like these:
  • Budgeting
  • Saving
  • Costs for doing business (equipment, office space, insurance, etc.)
  • Spending
  • Helpful tools
  • Metrics
  • Mindset
  • and more
Please bring a tip or a story to share. Questions for the group are welcome, too.

Schedule

12:00 – 1:00 PM Creative Solopreneurs Meeting
Monthly meeting of independent creatives sponsored by AIGA MN.

Join us for an insightful discussion on topics relevant to people working in the creative economy. Meet other local, independent freelancers, consultants, small business owners, and entrepreneurs over hot coffee or a delicious lunch, available for purchase from our friends at The Wedge Table.

No fee, registration, or advanced RSVP is required. All creative solopreneurs are welcome.

Open networking afterward.
