stacie bloomfield's leverage your art 2023
Seven years ago, I received an email from Etsy saying that they were removing all my Scrabble-related products as they received a notice of trademark infringement from Hasbro. They removed 62 of my listings. I was beyond upset. In my naïveté, I felt I was wronged. I wasn't making anything unpleasant nor was I duplicating the scrabble pieces to sell. I was only using it to make cheerful art. Many of those were my best sellers and without it, I wasn't able to attract the same traffic to my Etsy store. In the end, I had to close my shop.
This led me to three decisions:
(1) That I would never rely on one platform as my only source of income,
(2) If I was going to have a career as an artist, I need to learn how play the game right and;
(3) I have to how to create my own opportunities and not wait for it to come to me.
It took me awhile to discover surface design, but once I opened that door, I never looked back. Today, I'm actually grateful that this happen because now I have multiple streams of income.
Most importantly, I invested in knowledge and have never regretted my choice to keep learning. When I know more, the more control I have over the situation, and the better the choices I make.
Three years ago, I signed up for Stacie Bloomfield's Leverage Your Art and it blew my mind. Stacie not only taught me how to squeeze every potential from my art; she also taught me how to negotiate my way through a contract so it would work in my favour which meant the opportunity to make more money! I begin to work smarter, not harder.
Making a living through art is totally possible. But my vision, is not just to make a living, I want to build a creative empire. And who else better to look to than Stacie Bloomfield? My gut tells me that if you want to do something, learn it from someone who's already doing it.

"I started to work smarter, not harder. To use what was already in front of me, and to leverage my art to work in my favour. I also learned to lean into my strength and focus on my unique talents. Everyone has their own creative voice, and Leverage Your Art helped me refine mine and made it stronger."

💬 I JUST FINISHED IMMERSION 2023, HOW SIMILAR IS LEVERAGE TO IMMERSION?
🌿 There are some slight overlaps because it’s under the same umbrella of art licensing, so you’ll get some continuity from Immersion. BUT What’s special about LEVERAGE is that you’ll get to CREATE OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO MONETISE YOUR ART FOR EXAMPLE, MANUFACTURING YOUR OWN PRODUCTS, HOW TO APPROACH RETAILS TO WHOLESALE, CREATING A COMMUNITY OF BUYERS THROUGH NEWSLETTER ETC.. in other words, you'll learn how to use your art and make it work for you!
IN LEVERAGE YOUR ART, YOU'll learn MORE THAN JUST LICENSING, YOU WILL LEARN SO MANY STRATEGIES ON HOW TO CREATE AN ARTISTIC BUSINESS THAT YOU WON'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH IS PACKED INTO JUST ONE COURSE. The course IS METHODICALLY structured AND planned. Plus, STACIE IS SUCH A GENEROUS AND APPROACHABLE TEACHER too. her energy is infectious!
💬 I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH ARTWORK YET TO REALLY START PITCHING OR LICENSE, SHOULD I WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR TO SIGN UP?
🌿 It’s good to educate yourself and set up the foundations now rather than wait until you have a complete portfolio. It’ll be much easier when you have STRATEGIES in place and know how to work WITH a brief SO WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR YOU TO WORK WITH AN ART DIRECTOR YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. YOU WILL BE TALKING THE TALK AND WALKING THE WALK.
Leverage will go more in-depth with the business, and, it blows my mind how MUCH STACIE REVEALS IN LEVERAGE YOUR ART. I wish IT WAS A COURSE THAT WAS AVAILABLE 10 years ago BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME A LOT OF TIME TRYING TO FIGURE EVERYTHING OUT BY MYSELF.
You'll ALWAYS have this version of Leverage for life - which is extremely useful because you CAN REFER TO IT WHENEVER YOU NEED TO no matter what stage you're at.
💬 I’M NOT BASED IN THE U.S., WILL THIS COURSE HELP ME?
🌿 Hi! I'm based in Australia and I love that the lessons in Leverage has no borders. You can apply the knowledge no matter where you're from. You won't just learn about art licensing but also how to create products and wholesale it to your local retailers. You'll learn how to set up an online shop and sell your products globally.
