 Sponsorship Info!
I was up in NYC the last weekend of January talking with our new group sponsor, OPEN American Express for small business and, thirty other Meetup Group organizers for a special two-day gathering. We spent those two days working hard on developing ways to make better Meetup events and find new ways to serve our members.
OPEN has provided some information to share with you at our next events. Our regular monthly Meetup in Broward will be Sat., 23, 2008 at 12 NOON. [full details]
The Growing Organization TheSouth Florida Artist Entrepreneurs Meetup Group the network of local artist entrepreneurs, and alumni of the "Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute" (AEI) gathers monthly to share tips and problem solving techniques, get advice on career and, discuss mentoring and business models for artists.
What it takes to be a professional artist is more than knowing your craft, you have to know how to run a business. Your materials cost money and, you need to hire assistants, you need a contract, you need to copyright your work and, you need to make a living!
