It’s going down on Monday the 2nd of November 1.00 PM EST.

If you’ve never had a sponsor before, now is the best time to dip your toe in the pool because patronage has steadily risen around the world in the past three years, from $2.6 billion in 2016 to $3.1 billion in 2019.

After investing so much of yourself in this art of yours, you deserve the dopamine splash of checking your inbox one day and seeing the confirmation of your first patron donation - like this: 


 

And now some tough love:

If you write to the wrong patrons (or write to the right patrons in the wrong way), instead of that donation confirmation, what you see in your inbox will be a humiliating rejection.

It’s crucial that you understand two things:

How does a wealthy patron choose which projects to give to?

How do you find what kind of projects a particular patron has funded in the past (so you can see whether they would be a match for your dream project)?

I’ll cover both on the 2nd of November 1.00 PM EST.

It’s free. It’s eye-opening. You should come.
