Let's take the "HUSTLE" out of self-employed
As a creative, you know the tiresome struggle of being a one-man show—booking commissions, printing and producing prints of your artwork, managing the production and the shipping...to sum it all up: EXHAUSTING!!
You've heard that diversifying your income is the key to success as a business owner, but how? Licensing. That's how.
Licensing your work means you work with brands (get it, B+B ;) who pay you to recreate YOUR work on THEIR products!!
They handle all the headaches, the printing, the production, managing customers, getting it into retail stores and more, while you get to focus on the stuff you love all while receiving checks in the mail! Sounds bomb, right?
work less, live more—while doing what you LOVE
Topics we cover:
AND SO MUCH MORE!!
Defining your signature style
Designing seamless patterns and cohesive collections
Understanding contracts and how to negotiate deals

Organizing a killer library of work to present to brands
Finding contacts to pitch to and work with

What comes with this course?
What's the difference between this course and Pen to Press?
When does this course become available?
Great question! This course includes over 30 pages of guides and handouts to go along with each module, over 10 hours worth of video courses and bonus modules, and customizable templates. The course is self-led but you do get access to a student-led community group!
Absolutely! The internet is a beautiful thing. If you have internet access, you can take this course AND licensing is a global industry. I've worked with manufacturers in Canada, Europe and more! P.S. One of our students in the course is from Poland and works with US brands, too!
Great question! These two courses are completely different. Pen to Press is a course on custom stationery design and working with stationery CLIENTS, while this course covers licensing. How to write contracts, how to price your work, how to find the right partnerships, building and organizing a portfolio, etc. This is the next step in terms of career for most creatives if you’re wanting to get into passive income and working with brands. Licensed artists can find their work on products like home goods, office supplies, etc. in retailers, while custom stationery clients (Pen to Press group) will be working on wedding stationery or custom greeting cards.
As soon as you purchase! You will receive a confirmation email from Kajabi, our new learning platform, with the login information you created at checkout and the link to access our private Facebook group.
People who pay, pay attention and this course is meant to help those who are serious about licensing their work and growing their business. Spending under $1100 for this content is an insane deal and if you put in the work you learn, your results will turn into profit. You have the potential to make the money you spend on this course back in no time! Or…if you’re not serious, you could spend the next few years figuring it out on your own and hopefully making it work in this highly competitive marketplace!
Great question! The payment plan students take a lot more monitoring/work on our end. We have to check each subscription every month to make sure payments are going through (credit cards change) and communicate with you to help you avoid late fees!
Absolutely! If you want all the guesswork taken out of the beginning stages (and then some!), then you're right for this course.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know this class will be worth it?
I am only just getting started in my creative business. Is it for me?
Why is the payment plan more than the one time?
Can I take this course if I am not in the U.S.?
It really depends on the effort you put into it. We've had students take this course, implement and within one month score a 5-figure licensing deal and we've also had students who don't see income until 6 months or a year in! It really depends on you implementing the tools in the course.
How long does it take until I can start to make money off of licensing?
Can you live off of licensing?
Do you need a large following on Instagram?
YUP! I have a friend who makes 7-figures a year just off of her licensing business! But as I've mentioned before, you've gotta implement and put in the work from this course. Just because you hit purchase, doesn't automatically guarantee success!
Nope! In the course we have a bonus module dedicated to HELPING you grow your Instagram following, but it's definitely not necessary to have this in order to license your artwork.
Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator (at least Illustrator), a registered business for when you start working with licensees/manufacturers, a lawyer on deck that can help you register your trademark if necessary (we have recommendations inside the course), an agent (not required and we have a whole spreadsheet full of agents that you contact to pitch to)! Dropbox for organizing your files and Canva for making quick one-sheets are two of my other go-to platforms that I recommend!
What programs and paperwork do I need for the course and for licensing?
ABSO-FRIGGIN-LUTELY!! That's what makes this course and investment so bomb! We're continually looking at the course to update the content, making sure it's always the best educational content out there on licensing AND that all of the topics stay super relevant for you and your business. We take feedback from our students very seriously and want to continue to help you grow your business!
Do current students get new updates?
