Overwhelmed is an understatement about how I felt about the legal side of my business. But since joining the artist’s Courtyard, I’m feeling excited that it’s all manageable. The input of this friendly community and the guidance, confidence, and knowledge of Kiffanie keeps me coming back.

Hi, I’m Kiffanie Stahle, founder of the artist’s J.D. 

Spoiler alert, there are only 5 legal tasks that I think are must-dos for every creative business.

Yes, the checklists you find online have dozens more. But I’ve seen time and time again, that one-size-fits-all checklists are a waste for most creative businesses. 

Because many of those tasks aren’t important today. And doing all..the…things right now is likely a waste of your time, money, and energy.

Which is why I believe that you only need to tackle 5 tasks.

And once you’ve accomplished those, you only add something to your list if it:

• will help you get closer to your goals
• is riskier not to act now, rather than waiting until something happens

Since 2011, I’ve been helping creative business owners like you make these decisions. And I know that together we can inject ease into the legalese of running your creative business.

Join us in the artist’s Courtyard and start discovering the most potent steps you can take today towards building a satisfying life and business.

 

Eliminate the bare minimum legal tasks (and join a community of creative business owners adding ease to the legalese)!

Every creative business is different.

There’s no one-size-fits-all formula, solution or trend that will automatically assure your creative business is built on a strong legal foundation.

Which is why there are two ways you can join the artist’s Courtyard and get instant access to the 5 must-do tasks course.

FAQ

…Who is this course for?

This course is designed for any U.S.-based creative business owner who wants to start securing your creative business’ legal foundation. But doesn’t want to have to learn any legal jargon.

…Who isn’t this course for?

This course isn’t the best fit for you if you aren’t based in the United States or if you’ve already done the basics to securing your creative business’ legal foundation. It’s also best to pass on this course if you want someone to do all the work for you. You’ll be given tools and resources, but to cross them off the list, you’ll have to roll up your sleeves and do the work.

…How long will I have access to the content?

You’ll have access to the course content for as long as you are a member of the artist’s Courtyard.

…What is your refund policy?

Hype and promises abound on the Internet. There’s a Facebook Ad out there right now about how to be seen as an expert when you don’t have any clients. And if I were in your shoes, I’d be wary too.

Which is why I’m going to put a little skin in the game.

If within your first 30 days you decide that the artist’s Courtyard isn’t the right place to help you build a strong foundation, I’ll refund your payment.

No hoops to jump through, no worksheets to submit, no screenshots of how you participated. You just need to send me an email at kiffanie@theartistsjd.com.

…What’s included in the artist’s Courtyard?

Depending on your membership level, you’ll have access to:

• Monthly Q&A session with your friendly legal eagle—that’s me, Kiffanie Stahle.
• Other creative business owners, just like yourself. With a private online community to ask your questions and get answers from other members and me. (Without getting on Facebook!)
• Master workshops held about 4 times a year
• Weekly content answering your legal questions, sharing legal items in the news, or other trends
• Our legal library and legalese translator

…What kind of businesses should join the artist’s Courtyard?

We are looking for creative business owners who are ready to take action. You should have a DIY-mentality, be a self-starter, and be willing to raise your hand and help out your fellow members. And it might be right for you if you want to work with Kiffanie on a regular basis on a small budget.

…What kind of businesses shouldn’t join the artist’s Courtyard?

If you are looking for an attorney, this isn’t the right place. Kiffanie can’t provide legal advice about how to handle your specific problem and joining the artist’s Courtyard doesn’t make her your attorney.

She’ll only be able to provide information about the law and give you options. You’ll have to decide what’s right for your business. And if you don’t have the time, energy, or desire to do the work and support the community, this isn’t the right place for you.

And if you aren’t based in the United States, the legal resources won’t all apply to you because the resources only cover U.S. law.

…Can I cancel my membership to the artist’s Courtyard at any time?

Yep! No contracts or commitments here. You can cancel at any time with just a single click from your member profile page. If you email Kiffanie to cancel within the first 30 days, you’ll get a full refund. However, if you cancel after 30 days, you won’t receive a pro-rated refund. (You can read our full refund policy and when refunds are issued here.)

Eliminate your creative business’ most critical legal tasks, without learning or knowing any legal jargon.
