Visual Artists/Art Organizations

We support our regional ND and MN visual artists in connecting to art lovers and collectors. Because creativity is a driving force behind any successful businesses, our guidance and services easily translate to the world of the visual artist and art organizations. Like businesses, an artist's mind is an infinite playground of experimenting and exploring, filled with creativity and expression as they transform their ideas, insights, and emotions into tangible works. They overcome challenges, moments of self-doubt, and periods of creative block to achieve success.

It is often hard for leaders and managers to step back and see the big picture when one is neck deep in tactics and working closeup and hands on in keeping the business running.  Although business is logical and based on known practices; the identification of desired outcomes and setting a clear path to achieve them is not always so simple. Carol Schlossman Consulting brings a forward-looking, outside-in, constituent-focused approach.
