Coworking with Creatives

“Just because I want to work for myself does not mean I always want to work by myself.”

It can be challenging to address all of the tasks of building a business on your own. The company of others can spur new thought to overcome a challenging problem, provide the extra push of motivation felt when held accountable, and sometimes, it is just nice to share a passing thought with another human.

Burkholder Agency hosts coworking sessions for artists to work on their businesses. Once a month a small group convenes to work together. We provide the space, a bit of structure to get work done, and a little fuel for the body.

Although you are invited to come and work on whatever you need to get done, we also facilitate the sessions to focus on specific tasks that every business needs to work on in order to grow. Throughout the year we will bring in experts to work alongside you and possibly guide you on a specific issue you might be having.

Joining a Coworking with Creatives session will help you take a break from working IN your business to focus working ON it.

How it works

Virtual sessions meet on the second Monday of every other month from 10:00–11:30 AM ET (unless otherwise noted).

Each session centers on the our Management Dashboard (below)—building your own version, updating it live, and using it to grow your studio or practice. Sessions typically include a short teaching segment, large-group conversation, individual work time in your dashboard, and optional small-group sharing.

We Cover The Five Pillars

Strategy: Values, business model, focus, and goal setting that shows what you can do today.

Operations: Projects, production, inventory, vendors, and the systems that keep the studio moving without burnout.

Communications & Marketing: Content, email, social, outreach, and keep you in front of the right people.

Sales: Relationships, opportunities, offers, proposals, and follow-ups that directly impact revenue.

Finance & Admin: Cash flow, projections, contracts, and the basic structure that keeps decisions calm.

“If I were truly talented, I wouldn’t need management…”

We beg to differ—behind every visible artist is an invisible network. Here’s what “good management” looks like and why the dashboard is so important.
