The Craft of Commerce

Building a creative business is one thing, keeping it going is another. This expert panel brings together four founders who know exactly what it takes to turn a passion into a sustainable small business.

Leigh Morris (Slow Coach Studio & The Redirectory), Janna Walker (Pavement Store), Sally Emslie (Palace of Nowhere) and Char Dixon (Loudmouth Content) span the world of fashion retail, the vintage and preloved reseller market , marketing and content creation, and between them, they've navigated every challenge the creative industry throws your way.

From setting up and finding your footing to managing the day-to-day reality of doing it all yourself, this is a rare chance to hear first-hand experience, hard-won lessons and practical advice from people who are living it.

As small business owners themselves, Kate Grainger (Little Black Look) and Penelope Tucker (Moma Hilo) will be delving into the details with the panel covering;

- Small business strategy

- Marketing your creative business

- Building an audience

- Retail and wholesale strategy

Whether you're just starting out or deep in the juggle, pull up a chair, this one's for you.
