MATS MBA starts next week! See previous students’ support recipes and what they REALLY thought of the course

We are thrilled that the second round of our outstanding MATS MBA (Money BadAss) starts THIS MONDAY and we want you to join us!

Imagine loving your work, making more money, and stressing less
Imagine making a great living from your creativity and waking up every morning excited about your career
Imagine that you’ve got brilliant systems in place that you actually enjoy using, so you know exactly what your goals are, and that you have a user-friendly action plan to achieve those goals

How good would that feel? These are just some of the things which students in our previous MBA course told us that MBA had done for them!

Anna Lindsten’s support recipe from our previous MATS MBA course. What support do you need, and how can you get it? Let Lilla and Beth help you figure it out!

One thing we talk about on the course is support and how you can get it. Sometimes being an artist can be lonely (and one of the things our students mention a LOT is the wonderful friendly community they get to be a part of!). Some of the things we discuss are:

What support you need
What support is worth paying for
How to outsource and delegate so you can make the most of your creative talent

Students are encouraged to think about the support systems they have around them, what they need in order to thrive, and how to go about getting that support. On every part of the course we give you actionable strategies which are specially designed to work for creative visual people just like you.

The downloadable MBA Playbook takes you through creating your own personal formula for success step by step, with loads of kooky fun worksheets for you to fill in so you can figure out what works for you.

Support is just a small part of what we cover in this three week crash course. From eliminating money blocks to dealing with money practicalities, from opening your mind to the myriad ways you can generate money to helping you fall back in love with your business, this course will transform the way you think about, earn and manage money. You’ll learn:

Beth & Lilla’s top 10 tips for radical career success
How to monetize what makes you $pecial—why people will pay for your unique brand (and yes, you have one!)
How to promote yourself in a way that you actually enjoy—that fits your personality type—and yet is proven to draw clients to you
Beth and Lilla’s secret sauce for staying refreshed and motivated including building in time away and setting boundaries
Beth’s tips for managing your money (earn more, spend + invest wisely, use it to leverage more success)
Lilla’s playful and easy secrets for negotiating fees—from over 30 years in the business as a top art agent and successful, in-demand illustrator

… and so much more! Here’s one more support recipe to inspire you:

Enough from us. Here’s what some of our previous students from our very first round of MATS MBA had to say:

“For me, the course’s greatest genius was the way the head and heart, passion and practical, were always so intertwined. This just made sense to me in a way that I feel most ‘business’ focused courses never have. It was just what I needed.” – Anna Wilson
“MATS MBA covers all the things you need to know and to think about in order to build a successful creative business. In just three weeks you think about what really matters to you, you put tips and techniques into practice, get organised, make a plan and the best part is that you don’t have to do it all on your own.” – Camille Medina
“I feel so much more in control of my destiny. Mid-way through the course, I was flooded with the happy ‘I have succeeded’ feeling all because I had a clear direction before me. I know the execution of my plan will take hard work and dedication but I can see where I want to be and how to get there now.” – Suzy Naidoo

New to MATS and wondering if MBA is a good place to start? Absolutely!

“This is my first year taking MATS classes and it has been life-changing. I’ve been pushing myself harder than I ever thought possible and am loving every minute of it! This class is like having the perfect recipe and your own coach cheering you on and available for help if you need it. Lilla and Beth are a match made in heaven. They ask the perfect questions to allow a person to dig deep and then help guide you to where you want to go. They are amazing mentors!”

See you in class!

Lots of love

P.S. There’s still time to buy the 2019 Calendar from Flow Magazine, featuring several pieces of work from MATS students. This lovely letter is from Kate Merritt, who says: MATS Bootcamp really gave me the confidence to submit my work to Flow. In fact, it was originally one of the projects set by Lilla, which was to illustrate an illuminated letter, that inspired me to do more letters of the alphabet and to enter the Flow calendar competition with my letter F.

Letter F by MATS student Kate Merritt. See more of Kate’s work on her Instagram.

PLUS we’re also hosting a FREE Facebook Live with your MATS MBA co-teachers, Lilla Rogers and Beth Kempton, on Friday, January 11th at 2.30 pm EST/7.30 pm GMT. With the theme “Blurt out your dreams”, Beth will be sharing some of her cool career stories and master teacher Lilla will be translating them into teachable moments that you can use. RSVP for the event here.
