7 Skills Every Entrepreneur Needs to Know
Building and running a business isn’t easy. Sometimes, it feels like it’s ALL hustle and no results.
I get it, and that’s why my team and I created the Creator Course Bundle. What is the Creator Course Bundle? I’m glad you asked (because I really like talking about it)! The Creator Bundle is a curated collection of 33 courses, memberships, and e-guides from 31 creatives, entrepreneurs, and experts made for digital creators and trailblazers (aka you!) Think of it like a fully stocked toolkit to grow your brand, business, and beyond in the digital world. Brand partnerships, financial mastery, video/photo editing, digital product building, ad marketing, mindset shifts, and so much more - right at your fingertips!
I’ve been diving into the offerings of the bundle, and let me tell you - it’s good stuff. It even inspired me to make a list of the skills that should be in every entrepreneur’s arsenal. And guess what? We have all these skills covered in the bundle.
1. Planning
Without a blueprint, you can’t build a business. Planning ahead for my projects, shoots, or even an average workday helps me stay ahead on my work without getting overwhelmed by the never-ending to-do list.
2. Pricing
I have something to tell you - YOU ARE WORTH IT. It’s incredibly easy to doubt the worth of your work, but you deserve to get paid for the creative labor you put into it. Whether it’s a brand deal or your own product, learn your value and own it!
3. Branding
People can draw opinions quick, and that’s why creating a cohesive and engaging brand is so important. From your Instagram bio to your website, figure out what your message is and the value you have to offer others. Start building out how your mission will play a role in your visual and verbal design.
4. Social Media
This might seem like a broad topic, but stay with me. Social media can be more than just a scrolling sesh. It’s a search engine, free audience, and business platform. By utilizing all of its features like a pro, you have the power to turn followers into loyal customers.
5. Finances
Not everyone is a financial guru (myself included), and that’s totally okay! You don’t have to be Bill Gates, but it is essential to know how to make a budget, stick to it, and grow your bottom line. The first thing you can start doing: check your bank account statement routinely to know what is going in and out.
6. Legal
Listen - signing a bad contract or not knowing your legal business rights can seriously set you back. Not everyone has the funds to have a legal advisor or manager on their team, and I’ve learned the hard way of signing the dotted line before I fully understood what I was committing myself to exactly. By familiarizing yourself with legal lingo and practices, you’ll save a whole lot of tears and have the opportunity to earn more moolah.
7. Video and Photo Editing
Everyone has different goals for their brand, but visuals can become impactful driving forces. When I started to learn how to do photo and video editing, I became empowered to push my limits as a brand. Not your cup of tea? No worries! Knowing how to do just the basics can help deliver a cohesive feed, brand, and mission while keeping your audience engaged with your business! Told you they were powerful!
