Arts x EShip - Crafting a Business Plan & Pitch Online

One of the most important parts of being a successful entrepreneur is crafting a business plan and elevator pitch. These tools not only help you solidify your business’ products, vision, and other financial and marketing goals, but they also help you present your work to outside stakeholders. Because of this, business plans and elevator pitches are incredibly valuable tools for potential arts entrepreneurs.

Join us for this virtual workshop on how to craft a successful business plan and elevator pitch to help take your arts entrepreneurship idea from concept to company!
