Can't wait to put this into use

After reading the reviews I felt this was right up my alley and something that I need to grow my business. I'm a new business owner and felt that this workbook will guide me down the correct path and also keep me motivated. This workbook makes you look deeper into your business and help you set personal goals. It's easy to read, enough space for notes and love the quotes b4 each chapter begins.

BEAUTIFUL, detailed, with thick pages for writing and planning your creative brand!

The BEST creative workbook I’ve found so far. Love the thick, almost card stock-like pages it contains, and how detailed the pages are. Perfect for anyone trying to figure out their creative business or brand. HIGHLY RECCOMEND.

If you want to start or grow your business, this is the book to invest in.

The media could not be loaded.









As a “strategic” thinker and my number one strength, I lead with the “Big Picture” and then, process all of the detailed steps to reaching goals. This book is by far the most well thought out, motivational, inspiring, detailed snapshots I’ve ever encountered (and believe me, I’ve been searching for 10 years without success.) It encompasses creativity, resources, facts, experience, processes and if formatted in a learning and growth layout for the consumer to add to it.

This book is so much more than I expected. It's high quality... beautiful... and engaging in a way that is so accessible and.. full of practical information to starting business. Copyright info,tax id... how to write a mission statement, website building and time management tips and so much more.. i absolutely love it. The only downside is, the book is so nice you will immediately want 2 for yourself..and more to give as gifts!! Sincere Thanks to the author for creating this guide for we are still finding our way!

I found this book very helpful it's a great asset to have as a new business owner guide you, it helps on the steps that you need to touch on or the questions you may me forget to ask yourself ,its overall helpful. I carry it in my tote bag with me everywhere just in case something comes to mind and I can write it down.

Incredibly helpful and easy to use

I love this workbook. The design makes it really simple and easy to use, plus it’s really cute. It prompted a lot of great questions I wouldn’t have thought to ask myself or exorcises I wouldn’t have done. It’s a great motivator and tool to keep you on track and to keep going in the beginning of starting a creative business.

Workbook format is perfect!

Love that this book is in workbook format. It asks the right questions, sometimes hard questions... to be reflective and have answers come to light you didn’t know you had in you. For years now, working a day job and my own freelance graphic design business nights and weekends, I had not taken the time to ask myself where do I want to be? When do I want to be there? The book is very encouraging, well organized and has great artistic appeal. Love the book!

So LEGIT and incredibly encouraging!

Can I just tell you how blown away I am by this book? As a small business owner myself, I feel like this book is everything we all had to learn the hard way about being your own boss, but she’s spelled it out plain and simple. It’s like a coffee date with Ilana in book form, and she’s right across the table sharing everything you need to know and work on to get things rolling with your business idea. So legit and incredibly encouraging!Please excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor, and slow clap Ilana on the way out!

Not just for Creative Businesses. Makes scary & complex, beautiful & simple.

Ilana’s book is a great read for people starting out in any industry, not just creative. She takes the scary, complex “there is just too much to think about” and lays it out in a visually beautiful and simple way to help you keep moving forward. I finished it in a weekend but have booked marked it to refer back to constantly and I’ll keep it displayed in my office to show off the beautiful cover.Ilana thank you so much for taking the time and effort to write, illustrate and publish this helpful guide, I feel a little less alone now.

Helps you realize your potential.

It's a good book to sit with and understand why you are wanting to do a business.

This is a beautiful book, made of quality materials you can feel while flipping through it. It met & exceeded my expectations & now I'm looking to get one for myself since this one was a gift for a friend. She'll definitely need to tweak some of the language in her head a bit to fit a food industry business if that's the direction she ends up going rather than the product/service oriented business this seems to be intended for but most of the questions & worksheets can be used for anything. Can't wait to see her working through this. Hopefully it's as helpful as I think it'll be. :)

Wonderful for those in the early stages of starting a business!

It has been invaluable to me! I’m a creative person and not so good at numbers, so starting a business is daunting to say the least. This wonderful workbook has navigated me through the hard stuff step by step, and I am so thankful for that! Love it and would highly recommend it.

Excellent Resource!

This is a great book, and I would highly recommend it! She's great at knowing questions to ask to get you to think about your business, especially if you're a creative, but this book provides valuable insight to anyone considering starting a business. I learned a lot. I'll be referring to this book for years to come.
