"I’m Giving Up!" That’s what a creative told me during a recent conversation. Frustrated, overwhelmed, and ready to throw in the towel on his creative business. Do I blame him? Absolutely not. Inflation has risen by 32%! The strategies and actions that worked in the past might no longer yield results in 2025. The challenges are real, and doing the same thing over and over while expecting different outcomes is a recipe for frustration. But here’s the thing: This is not the time to give up—it’s the time to RESTRATEGIZE! The creatives who will thrive in 2025 are the ones who are ready to pivot, adapt, and approach their businesses strategically. 💡 What worked yesterday may not work tomorrow. 💡 Your creative talent alone isn’t enough to navigate rising costs and an evolving market. 💡 You need clarity, intentionality, and a solid plan to not just survive, but THRIVE.
