Welcome to The Loaf - making money & business more approachable for self-employed creatives
This article is from last year.
It's one of my favorite posts I've written & it's been a long week so I didn't have time to write a new one..
The Chiefs won the Super Bowl on sunday and I stayed up like a lil journalist sketching Monday morning's Breadhead* (at the bottom of this email).
Then we had the parade on Wednesday, all-day event:
I'm still kind of tired.
But I did take some time to update the article, add more context & examples, and now it might be my favorite post I've written.
Let me know if it resonates with you.
Friendly money & business reminders for self-employed creatives
✅ Start wrapping up this month's bookkeeping
Why? It's MUCH easier to do it throughout the year than all at once before next tax season
But I have a proposal:
If I created a regular Zoom call where you could "co-work" with other creatives to catch up on bookkeeping, admin tasks, invoicing, etc - would you attend?
The sole purpose would be dedicating 30-45 minutes to get the business side of things done.
Maybe host it once a week.
Mics would be muted, cameras optional, some lofi beats in the background if we're feeling it - if you're interested, click below and I'll send you an email with more details soon!
