Why Bother?
Creative professional pay is at an all time low. That isn’t right. Keeping it low are toxic beliefs and fears undervaluing ourselves and our impact as creatives. Money is not a dirty word, and negotiating for more of it is not a shameful or scary talent best left to business moguls, politicians, bankers or Donald Trump. Negotiating is a fundamental skill that everyone can learn and is essential in securing the work and life you’ve always dreamed of. What’s more, it can be extremely rewarding and fun!
