Not sure if this is the right category, but I'm trying to figure out which option is best as a starter, eg is hobby sufficient enough. And if pro is worth it eventually? Is there already content on this, or in the paid membership?

plus my plans through May! There is already a lot! Bots to help you craft content, socials, email, and mindset. Content Calendars and templates. Workbooks on various topics. Tech walkthroughs (what do you want me to show you?) And of course, get coached during our monthly Q+A call. This is the cheapest access anyone gets to my brain :)

I just want to share this from my heart, Since I joined this Skool platform, I’ll be honest… I didn’t see the results I was hoping for at first. Month after month, nothing really changed. From January till November, life was tough. Very tough. There were days I felt stuck, confused, and frustrated. I tried my best, but things were not working. It affected not just me, but and my family too. There were moments I questioned myself, moments I felt like giving up, moments I couldn’t even sleep properly because of financial pressure 😭 But something changed last year December. For the first time ever, I made my first $1,000 online. I can’t fully explain how emotional that moment was for me. It felt like a door finally opened after a whole year of struggle. After months of tears, stress, and silent prayers, December showed me that patience truly pays. Today, I’m genuinely grateful I didn’t quit. Grateful I stayed. Grateful I joined this platform, even when it felt like nothing was happening. If you’re reading this and you’re still struggling, please don’t give up. Sometimes the breakthrough comes when you least expect it. This month reminded me that things can change, even after a very hard year. I’m just thankful… truly thankful 🙏❤️

Welcome to Ecomm for Creative Business, I'm Kira! I own CreateAlong.com, a popular polymer clay tools and tutorial site. There, I have created over $3 million in sales on products and digital downloads. I have a top 1% Etsy shop (actually it's in the top .3%- having outsold 97.7% of shops). I'm here to share everything I know about growing and sustaining a creative business. I've owned 3 B+M shops, sold summits, courses, a magazine in both print and digital versions for over 5 years monthly, I have a monthly tutorial club and a snail mail club, plus my product line. I've had posts go viral on IG (6.6 million views!) and I'm here for all of the content, tech, software, sales, and audience building questions. Let's start things off with introductions! Share where you are in the world, what you make, and a pic of your workspace so we can get connected. I'll start!

Super excited to be here - thank you @Kira McCoy for being such a f*cking cool supporter of creative business owners ! I'm currently in a shift in my artist career and having this group as a support is going to be great! I've just opened a Community Gallery / Event space in Savannah GA with another artist. It's going to be amazing and the people I've been meeting is so exciting as well. However, I must continue to work on my own projects as well as navigate managing the space and people! 2026 is definitely going to be an interesting year. My website is www.joannemorton.com - I'm not currently promoting my online shop - I'm focusing on building relationships with local businesses so I can incorporate my creative wellness experiences in their businesses. I use gratitude, laughter, affirmations and art to help help people go from feeling stressed and frustrated to feeling relaxed and motivated. The world needs as much positive energy or as I like to call it "Magic Passion Love" in the world. See y'all soon! Here's a picture of my co-founder and myself from our first newspaper article! Our partnership is so strong. It's been such a gift to work with her.
