Passive income for artists - The CreativeMindClass Blog
Passive income, a method which works even while you're asleep? -- Yes, please!
You've heard about passive income. A method that is effective when it's not your thing. Passive income is a mythical creature that lives in the middle of the forest that is dark and fairytale. We have heard about courageous artists who dare to go into the woods and ended up getting lost along the path.
Regardless of how mystical passive income seems to be that this is something that most wants. The question is - how to do it and change the ending of the tale to an optimistic ending.
We at CreativeMindClass consider it is crucial for creatives who are planning to offer online classes to share the technical elements of their work. Creating a business that brings an income that is steady is a way to go for creatives. Find out how you can do it.
There was never a better opportunity for artists to attain the highest levels of income.
"Do what you love, and you will never work a day in your entire life" Okay however, how can you do it?
For the last two years, I've examined the ways that artists are extremely hard doing what they love every day. Today, artists are disrupting the online market with their creativity and earn decent money from the process. It has never been a better time in history for the artists to reach the highest earning levels by working on projects for clients but also diversifing income sources and building up the passive income.

Don't fall into the short-sighted trap. Minimizing one-time projects
A few artists are like worker bees, devoting their time in one-off projects, but failing to create recurring sources of revenue. This is the vicious cycle. Our work is focused on tasks that seem easy to us. Every day, we have a new task, another art work, another customer and another show...
This kind of work is enjoyable however, at some moment, after we've had enough, we realize that there have to be other means of working and start looking at other sources of income. We would like to make something steady and lasting. It should enable us to spend the time we need for our families as well as our family members. The time has come for all those hours of hard work to be paid the price.
The secret of building a thriving business
What is delegating, and why should you begin doing it (best now)?
In plain terms, delegating means having others do some of your work on your behalf. Delegating used to start from an assistant personal to you, however these days, it will almost certainly be a certain kind of service designed to simplify your work.
Making things from scratch can make the life of creators more difficult
The problem for some artists is the fact that they enjoy making things by hand. Many love mixing their paints and others buy prepared colors from stores to make it easier to mix them and then create work of art (and the money) when the first one still mixes and mixes...
Do you understand where we're going with that? Sure, it's, fun to find pleasure in mixing your colors, however, we're talking about taking your company up to a higher level, THE NEXT LEVEL so some decisions must be made. There is no way to get to a higher level as a business owner when you use your time performing basic activities that someone else can easily do for you.
Pre-built solutions. A gateway to your dream creative projects
Pre-built or ready solutions let you do the things you truly love, and let the rest go to other people. The real magic starts when a pre-built solution enables you to implement your most complicated business concepts and daring dreams. They were the ones you've have always thought of, but for which you never had the opportunity to push them forward.
In the present information age, it's easier than ever before to see your dreams happen. Solutions that are ready can be a gateway to something that could never be accomplished by yourself because of the shortage of resources, such as tools, skills, or money. Also, there's not enough time for everything.
Mix and match your delegations: combine your unique art and technology with pre-designed solutions
We don't claim to be experts to be a guarantee; we base our philosophies (and this piece) upon years of studying business literature that has helped us bring our dream idea (CreativeMindClass Learning Platform) to life. Many of them state the same thing over and over repeatedly, so optimize your working procedure and eliminate. In this way, you'll have the ability to focus on polishing your art while other tasks are completed for you.
Utilizing technical platforms to facilitate giving away
Artists that want to produce and earn their income online usually have their plates full. We came up with the idea of creating a technical solution for those who want to share their talents online. It's crucial for individuals who want to instruct via video online classes. This allows them to share the technical elements of their project. They can create this way a business that gives them a source of income.
Creative business owners can may also delegate. Including CreativeMindClass
While building our CreativeMindClass Teaching platform, we understood quickly that we could not manage everything. We started delegating since day one (OK since day two, but we would do it from day one;) ). Since we are a relatively small group building a portal of enormous dimension, we decided to make use of a few pre-designed solutions to keep the high standard of service for our users, save time and give attention to the parts of the project that no one else can take charge of.
Our teaching platform is a product that we designed and made by ourselves. Despite the fact that "custom" and "personal" are our favorite words, we will not be able to succeed without ready solutions. In order to ensure the best standard of our learning solution we collaborate with businesses and people who are aware of our goals and who share our the same values. Local artists skilled freelancers and other players such as Amazon, Stripe, MailChimp, BeeFree, or Ghost.
