Don’t Quit Your Daydream

February 17, 2019 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$50

The business finance course for self-employed wedding professionals at any stage

Are you just starting out looking to get a handle on the business? Looking to phase out your day job and go full time? Or maybe just looking to get a bit more financially secure?

Brittany Bugaj from Two Adventurous Souls has been a wedding photographer for 10 years. For 7 of those years, she has operated her business a year in advance. Inspired by a lunch meeting with fellow creatives in her first year where someone said “if my clients didn’t pay in full this early, I wouldn’t have been able to pay my taxes.” With that statement she devised a plan, and lots of spreadsheets, to always have a full year’s expenses in the bank.

With two kids at home, a mortgage, and all that comes with those, Brittany understands just how scary ditching that day job can be.

During this course, she will show you how to breakdown all of your business and personal finances and we’ll take a look over your packages/expenses to see if you can hit your goals! She won’t tell you what you should be charging but instead will help you analyze your numbers to come up with what works for you. You’ll build confidence in your business so you can say adios to that day job and follow your daydream!

  • Please Note: Participants will need to bring along their laptop (with either Excel or Numbers installed) and as much of their yearly business and personal expenses as possible. Your numbers are completely private. Everyone will get a copy of the spreadsheets that Brittany uses and you can follow along on your own.

Registration opens in January 2019.
