Description

It’s that time again! Prepping for the selling season, getting everything planned, staying up late to ensure our organisation is tip top. Packing boxes, unpacking boxes, hanging work, wrapping work. Is your payment machine up to date and charged? ;) 


That’s all well and good, but let’s calm down for a second and remember why we’re doing this, and where we need to be. Let’s get a plan (of sorts) so a post event collapse isn’t on the cards. A gentle reminder to focus on what’s important and how we get there. 


What is it that’s important? Why are you doing this creative thing? Are you even in the right venue to meet your audience? …and relax. We’ve got you. 


Now, as always, we invite you to tell us what your plan for silly season is, there’s lots more to chat about. 


Thank you, too, to all who listen, DM, send messages and have made the last four years so much fun with #artchatterpodcast
