I'm getting ready to take off for Las Vegas tomorrow. I'm not really a Las Vegas kind of gal, I'm going to the American Craft Retailers Expo. It's a beautiful show (If I do say so myself - I'm on the jury) and it's well run by a Wholesalecrafts.com. In it's third year, the show is still growing and it's been really exciting to be part of it from the beginning. I'm looking forward to meeting new buyers, writing lots of orders and seeing my west coast artist friends like Amy Peters, Heather Kraty, Mercedes Brugh, and Kay Young. As I've mentioned before I get to see these friends only a few times a year and I love the camaraderie and community at wholesale shows. Anyway, I just popped in to leave a note - it's been too long. And I wanted to be sure and let you all know about a really cool and affordable series of classes. It's The IndieBizChicks Summer Business Sessions. These classes meet online every Tuesday night to discuss business topics of all kinds, Each class is led by an expert in the field and the guest list is impressive. Here are just a few:
- Jenny Hart, founder of Sublime Stitching
- Sue Blatt, co-founder of Renegade Craft Fair
- Claudine Hellmuth, founder of Collage Artist
- Amy Schroeder, founder of Venus Zine
- Casie Metcalf, owner of IndiePublic.com
- Laura Allen, co-founder of 15 Second Pitch
Each class is an hour, and the entire series costs only $14.95. How can you say no?
