The Pretty & Profitable Plan

I’ve said it before. You’ve said it before! You love floral design but running a business is so not your thing! You started your business because you love flower designing but it turns out that there's more to the business than just making pretty things! You've got the creative design skills but too much of your time is spent on paperwork/office work/accounting/management/writing proposals/and interacting with clients—pretty much everything except design.

You’ve tried doing it on your own, but that’s just not working any more. You’ve tried been wearing all the hats, but you’re just wearing yourself out. You’re ready to get some help, some direction, and maybe a few inside tips.

Pick your starting point-We’ll be with you all the way!

Your PRETTY & PROFITABLE business starts NOW!

On this page you’ll find three different paths to working with J Althea Creative. Don’t think of these as a linear path that needs to be followed start to finish, one step at a time. Think of these as solutions to different problems, answers to different questions.

Your business isn’t like the brick and mortar down the street. Your business isn’t like the popular wedding florist on Instagram that shows a perfect wedding every week either. Maybe you have a home-based studio & the information about window displays just doesn’t apply. Or maybe the weddings you want to design are smaller and you’re not interested in learning how to lead a team of 20. The things you need help with are unique to your business, so the solution should be too.

➡ Path #1: General Support / 1:1 Consulting

If you need general support and have a wide range of questions (or maybe you’re not even sure what the questions are right now), start with the 1-on-1 Consulting. Working together, we can tackle things as they come up. This week it might be pricing, next time - dealing with a difficult customer, and the time after that - accounting accountability. 1-on-1 Consulting is designed to be flexible and give you the support you need.

➡ Path #2: Focused Classes & System Setups

Have a specific area you want to focus on? From pricing to Canva tips to setting up an accounting system, the Business Tutoring section is designed for focus. Classes range from single sessions to 3-week courses so you have a chance to practice, ask questions, and really get the subject. And when you don’t really want to do it yourself, we can set up some of those systems that are so critical to a smoothly running business. (Sorry, we don’t write content!)

Everything in the Business Tutoring section can be purchased a la carte, but if you really want to jump start your business, we have the Jump Start Bundle. Check out the Business Tutoring page for all the details.

➡ Path #3: Downloadables & Other Things

The Small Bites section is where you’ll find the things that don’t really fit in the other sections. Our Mother’s Day & Valentine’s Day Systems Prep Webinars (where I share tips for organizing your shop for major holidays) are found here. Sales & seasonal items are also found here. Check out the Small Bites section if you’re still thinking about courses or consulting.

Oh, and don’t forget the blog!
