Artisanal Designs: Planning for Success When You Do it All

Did any of you ever play that game… "We're going on a road trip, and in my suitcase, I'm packing….?" Road trips as a kid were a lot more carefree and easier to pack for than they are as an adult! Right?! Now that we're the "adults" responsible for the success of the trip, often what we pack (or fail to pack) is the difference between a stressful series of unfortunate events and an enjoyable experience for all. Running a Business is much the same… sometimes what looks carefree, flexible, and fun from the outside or as an employee turns out to be way more work, learning, and time than we thought. When you are the one responsible for the outcomes? Planning and preparation make ALL the difference. In this class, we will discuss how to 1) Choose a "Design Destination" 2) Develop a "Design Dashboard," and 3) Pack accordingly (pick the right tools and techniques to support your "Design Style"). But why should you listen to us? With over 25 years of combined business and bakery experience both in the Solopreneur and Home Bakery sphere (Katy Kauffman) and the Design and Commercial Bakery sphere (Stefy Cuesta), we're willing to bet that whether you've been doing this for 6 months or 6 years, we have insight to offer. We are excited to put our combined knowledge, skills, and hard-won hands-on experience at your disposal in this class to help you examine how SMALL changes to the way that you approach the design process can lead to BIG time-saving results (that not only save your sanity- but also increase your profit margin!) Ready to Prepare for Success? We can't wait for you to join us!
