FREE MONTHLY CREATIVE CONVERSATIONS

JOIN ME ON THE 2nd TUESDAY OF EVERY MONTH… for a 15 minute bite-sized coaching followed by a 15 minute chat.

Being a solo creative can be a tad lonely sometimes. I do miss the buzz, the laughs and the camaraderie of studio life sometimes.

Oh, and some like-minded creative souls to have a healthy b*tch and moan with sometimes – I’m no sickly, stickler for toxic positivity

… sorry, not sorry!

So I’m inviting you to ‘Meet Me at the Water Cooler’ for monthly live online creative conversations.

*Call me an idealist, but when you subscribe for the ‘Meet Me at the Water Cooler’ sessions, I’m going to assume you’re super keen to hear more insight and inspo from me to help you in your creative business journey. If you’d rather not, then you can unsubscribe from my emails at any time and we’ll say no more about it. Just be aware you’ll also be unsubscribing from the information about the monthly ‘Water Cooler’ sessions too – entirely up to you of course. Bec x

WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT…

Well here’s what it’s not about… no slides, hefty workbooks or hard-sell – just me sharing in a casual forum some of what I know or think about in my own creative business.

On the second Tuesday of each month, starting on 14 March, I’ll be running a lunchtime (12pm AEST) creative conversation via Zoom.

Each month I’ll do a 15 minute coaching on a creative/design business related topic… something bite-sized to get the ideas flowing, inspire and support you in your business.

This will be followed by a 15 minute chat for anyone who wants to stick around and get their fix of casual conversation.

So you can just come for the learning and nab yourself a 15 minute mac-break at the same time. Or stick around for the whole 30 minutes. Completely up to you!

Do you need to simplify your services to increase your income?

This is where you’ll want to be if…

You’re a brand, graphic or web designer… and you work for yourself solo or in a small team.

Whether you’re starting, growing or evolving your own business, this monthly online community catch-up is for you.

You’ll get actionable, ‘in-real-life’ tips and tricks to elevate and grow your creative business. And at the same time feel connected to other creative souls.

Maybe you miss the agency studio vibe or you never had it because you jumped straight into freelance or your own solo business.

Whilst Facebook groups and Insta communities are definitely a step in the right direction, it’s not quite the same is it?!

Well don’t stress, you can still get your fix of water cooler laughs and chats here.

I ‘m Bec Hughes

Business Coach for Graphic Designers, Web Designers and Brand-Led Creatives,
Brand Strategist and Creator

Everyday I see amazing, talented graphic designers and creatives doing their thing… solving creative problems, innovating and crafting wow worthy work.

But whilst they invest time honing their creative skills, who’s teaching them how to run a successful creative business…? To manage the money, the clients and the projects to make a healthy profit, stay sane and hold on to their creative mojo.

For almost 2 decades, I worked in global agencies as a design, strategy and business lead. I helped those agencies grow and expand, whilst sticking to their guns, cultivating happy people and producing great work.

And for the last 7 years I’ve built (and stayed in love with) my own successful, creative consultancy… that pays me well on my terms.

And now, amazing creative person, I want to help you do the same.

SO ARE YOU COMING…?
