Live Strategic Goal Setting Workshop for Artists

You don’t have to be super organised to get your business shiz together!

One of the key tools you can use to have more success is Strategic Goal Setting.

Join this exclusive 2 1/2-hour live workshop tailored for visual artists, where I’ll share with you how to use strategic goal setting to achieve more success – even if goal setting has never worked for you in the past, or you worry goal setting will limit your opportunities to try new things.

You can choose to simply join the Workshop, or choose to add more value with access to the exclusive lounge community.
Either way, you’ll gain valuable insights and strategies for the rest of your career, plus get the replay and workbook.

I use this method to achieve big things.

Everything on this piece of paper (from when I started The Artists Business Lounge) has come into existence. Even the bits you can’t see.

And the year I had 6 solo exhibitions, worked part-time in a demanding job, had a young child and some other things going on all in the same year… that relied on strategic goal setting and planning too.

Hello

I’m Amanda van Gils, an artist and coach with a passion for helping artists thrive. Over the past 25 years, I’ve exhibited in over 100 shows, curated large-scale projects, and even ran an online gallery. My unique blend of artistic experience and business acumen has enabled me to achieve success in both worlds.

Like many of the artists I work with, I am not by nature a structured person. But I have learned a thing or two about how to make things happen, and I’ve shared what I have learned with artists who started to achieve more than they expected. In this workshop, I will share those methods with you too!

When is It? Monday 24^th March
Time: 11 AM AEST / 6 PM PTD (25th March)

What you'll learn:

In this interactive session, you’ll learn a proven step-by-step system to develop a focused plan, allowing you to identify, prioritise, and achieve your artistic goals with precision.

Discover how setting clear, strategic goals can enhance your creative freedom rather than limit it. Achieve more by working smarter, not harder.

Enjoy time for Q&A, in-depth discussions, and personalised feedback. Plus, you have the option to add bonus access to “The Lounge,” where you’ll find additional resources, ongoing support, and a vibrant community of like-minded artists.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

Get more success for the same effort
Gain clarity on your artistic priorities and next best steps (it may not be what you think)
Manage your time and energy to support your art life
Rinse and repeat - apply a repeatable process for more success
Identify and eliminate activities that don't align with your goals
Stay focused and on track with your artistic journey
Stop wasting time on activities that don't support your goals - learn when to say no.

Planning doesn’t have to be tidy, or boring, or basic. It can be a massive game-changer for you, just like it’s been for me and the artists I’ve worked with.

Get your hopes and dreams out of your head and into action. Want to learn how? Join us for the Plan Your Year Strategic Goal Setting Workshop
