  1. Wow! This sounds like just what I need… both my husband and I are creative and have thought about starting a business, but just don’t know how to get going.. this might be just the thing! Thanks for offering a giveaway!

  2. I am trying to start my own “craft” business, my best friend was helping me, but circumstances have changed and she no longer has the time to help. I would love some help figuring out what the right way to do this would be.

  3. I’d love to have a chance at this giveaway as I have recently taken the plunge in a brick & mortar shop…would love to glean from the inspiring women above as to how to do it better! Thank you!

  4. I am getting ready to start my own business and feel like there is so much that I don’t know. I would love to win!

  5. I would SO love to be chosen to participate in this online class. I’ve had a small business where I sold new, vintage and repurposed items. However, the building is now for sale and I no longer have a “store”. I do want to pursue some avenue of creativity but need guidance!! Thank you for your consideration for a free spot in this opportunity! Mary Elizabeth

  6. I’m at a crossroad in life, trying to decide which way to travel, but find myself stalled on the side of the road. Returning to a corporate role is an option but building a creative business endeavor is something that speaks to me. I have the luxury of taking a bit of time to explore possibilities so it would be sad not to gather information and educate myself about the entrepreneur route … this class seems custom made for me and my interests 🙂 As always, thanks Kelly for this giveaway opportunity!

  7. I work full time but my love is my small shop on ETSY which I would love to revamp and take to the next level . This class could get me there!

  8. This is just what I need! I am about to start my own blog/business and would love to ensure that I am doing whatever is needed to make it successful! Such a fabulous opportunity!

  9. I have dreamed for a long time of opening a store that is filled with vintage/retro items with that have been repurposed, updated, or given a twist to be somewhat modern. I currently have a few items on Etsy but would love the opportunity to learn to run a successful business on a much larger scale. Thanks for offering this give-away!

  10. This is what I am looking for to give myself some much need direction. Focusing on the little details that help to make a dream a success story, who would not want that?! And from these 3 fine women? Come on… that deserves a whoop- whoop!

  11. This class sounds amazing! My husband and I are just exploring an opportunity in my hometown to open a salvage/consignment business but aren’t really sure where to start or how to go about it. But the opportunity may not last long! This class sounds like it would be perfect to guide us! And a good birthday present to win- my birthday is may 12th! Thanks so much for the chance at winning this opportunity!

  12. This is information I really need to know. I have a lot of ideas but need to know as much as I can before I know what would work for me. Kids are almost grown up and I want to do something creative for me. Thanks for a chance to win this as I could never afford to sign up on our income. Pat Schwab

  13. For years I have pondered the fabulous idea of owning/running my own business. I have many God-given talents and skills that I believe would be well received by a wide, targeted public.

    I am at a stand-still, at the moment, as far as getting settled, so that my creative juices can flow in to my own business. Winning the E-class on Building A Creatively Made Business 2.0 could be the beginning to a fabulous, successful business endeavor. A jump-start, if you will, toward My Dream; My Calling; My Passion; My Future.

  14. This is what I have been thinking about the past months but never knew you could do this on line. I would love to participate.

  15. Thanks for the giveaway, I would love to win. I have been wanting to start my own business/blog for a long time now. I am so lost on what to do first. I have three kids amd my life is all about them, which I love but sometimes I need something for me. This opportunity would truly help me in getting started. Thanks

  16. My husband and I have been wanting to start a creative business and just need more information and that push to get started.

  17. My husband & I are currently jobless & are trying to be really creative with our time, resources & creative avenues. We know, to a point what we want to do, we just can’t execute it to how we need to do it. I would really love to be a part of this course & I know it would be highly beneficial to our family. Thank you for the opportunity and I’m looking forward to seeing how we can take our next, very needed, big steps to success 🙂

  18. My husband retired & I always said when he did I would get a job! Well the time is here.I have so many ideas and not enough information to get started. What a dream this would be to have a business of my own! Thank you!!!!!!

  19. Thank you for offering this course! Talk about perfect timing. I have so many ideas for different types of business and yet I don’t know where to start. I’m a planner by nature, and like to know what I’m getting into prior to starting. I know I have so much to learn, but I’m not sure what questions I even need to ask. My husband is mind-boggling talented and I would like to market his drawings as well.
    I have three three sons (high school to pre-k, one of whom is special needs) and I have to have flexibility. I currently homeschool one yet need to work- so I know I have to make a home business work. I have the desire and determination to start my home businesses, I just need the know-how.
    I cannot wait until the 20th!! Thank you, ladies.

  20. Had a country folk art business in the 80s….best time of my life! Then, I slowly got sucked into the corporate world. Retired from that two years ago and have recently been trying to find a way to start another business again doing what I love – creating art in many different medias.

  21. I’m a teacher and I am looking to change my field. I took the school year off to be available /take care of my husband due to his illness. He has one more year to retire, so unfortunately he has to work. I am wanting to start my own business to accommodate our new lifestyle and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to learn how to do it. Thank you for this opportunity. 🙂

  22. I would love a chance to unleash my creative side and quit punching the corporate time card and a course such as this is just what I need to give me the know-how (and the courage) to finally make the dream a reality.

  23. I have been meaning to sign up for this ecourse. Another blogging friend recommended it. It would be even better if I won a spot! Either way, thanks for the reminder.

  24. I’d LOVE to take this course to help get my jewelry business off the ground! Sounds fabulous!!!

  25. I would love to attend these classes. I opened a store on my own three years ago and I could use some mentoring help to help it grow.

  26. Kelly,
    My daughter and I have wanted to start our own business for years. We keep coming up against many obstacles, however, we keep trying but get caught up again!! We still are fighting to overcome all unforeseen occurrences. I honestly believe winning a spot in this class” Building a Creatively Made Business 2.0 E-Class” could definitely build our moral and get another chance to WIN!!! Thanks so much for the offer.
    Sharon

  27. The timing for this is perfect. I have hit a few snags with my business startup and am feeling very disheartened lately. I need some guidance from someone that has been there and is willing to share their knowledge and experiences, so I can continue doing what I love. Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks for the chance.

  28. Just like Mar’ (a.k.a. Mary Richards on the Mary Tyler Moore Show) I’d like to turn the world on with my smile and suddenly make the world seem worthwhile with my creative new business. And even though I have an engaging smile I feel like I desperately need to tune into the wisdom of women who have successfully started a business, and there you are providing this amazing course! If you choose me I’ll run into the street and throw my hat into the air!

  29. I have been blogging for about a year and opened an etsy shop–neither are where I want them to be–there is just so much I need to learn and this would be such an opportunity for courses I would not be able to afford otherwise. My husband is a talented carpenter/cabinetmaker/toy maker/ furniture maker and I am great at crafts and refinishing, we just dont know how to make them and the blog successful. This is just what we need!

  30. This is such an exciting opportunity to learn from some of the best women entrepreneurs on the web! I would love to expand my business, but need so much more information. I think this would be a great place to start!

  31. This is such a great opportunity to be able to learn from 3 great minds. Trying to get my feet wet with interior decorating business is very difficult and I’m stuck on lost. This is just what I need to give me that boost I need with the knowledge

  32. This sounds like the kick I need to get me started on my blog. I am so afraid to take the leap and Just Do It!! I follow many blogs, yours included, so I can see what others are doing. I follow forums when others ask questions I always learn something. With my etsy shop, I so want to share with others the thrill I get when I find something and I just know that someone out there will think it is cool too!.. I have had a b&m shop before. I am one who wakes up at night with ideas running through my head. I started in the 90’s (yes I was a child) with a custom gift basket business. Did well and had to either grow or stop. I was scared and stopped.. But I have always just loved the thrill of the hunt. And now my hunny bunny has the bug tooo. It is great to have someone who is by your side and understands and respects what you are trying to do. He’s the best.
    So on to this event and I will soak up and learn as much as I can from this class. But winning it would be like finding a great item at the end of the day at the last estate sale you see..and it makes the whole day worth it!!
    Thanks All Barbara Ann

  33. HI, Seriously! This specific seems like precisely what My spouse and i need… both we are generally inventive and have absolutely contemplated starting up a small business, yet just don’t know how to get going.. this may be just it is important! Appreciate it with regard to supplying a giveaway! 🙂

  34. This would really give me some good perspective (and incentive!) to start turning my projects and ambitions into a more fulfilling means of income. I love bring creative and would much prefer to make people happy with my abilities than sitting at a desk all day typing for a corporation that doesn’t care for me. Please consider me for the class! Thank you!

  35. All of the winter painted furniture in the garage needs a new home, and after spending my day job in front of the computer, it would be wonderful to have someone just walk me through selling online……my creativity stops with the painting and the building and the making!!!

  36. Thank you for offering a giveaway.

    I lost my job at the end of 2013 and I have always wanted to do my crafts full time so now is the time. I would love to take your class for some guidance and ideas. I love your blog!

    Thank you,
    Brenda

  37. I did it! I opened an arts and crafts studio six months ago! I just knew that I was growing out of my home and when customers sought out my custom jewelry and I didn’t have an appropriate place to meet, I knew it was time. I have a studio, I have clients, I have teachers teaching, I have kids classes and adult classes, I have Pinterest parties and date nights. I offer jewelry, mosaic, and mixed media workshops with supplies that I salvage. Last night I had some very inspiring young business men making their new marketing logo out of a glass on glass mosaic, hanging 12 inch round glass. Very cool! This weekend we are offering 4 Mother’s Day workshops for children to come make mosaic picture frames with china and old jewelry pieces! Why do I need this course? I know nothing of running a business! My husband gently reminds me that this isn’t my hobby any more, but a business. I’m very eager to make this work, but need help with all aspects of owning a business! Thank you, Jenny

  38. This sounds like a great opportunity. The creativity is the easy part, the business aspect is always the most difficult to get a grasp on.

  39. I think this is just what I need to get my dream up and going!! I keep putting it on the back burner and want to make my furniture and home decor line a “real” business to help support my family’s needs. I am a momma of 4 wonderful kiddos and love to be creative and be home with them too! Would love an opportunity to learn so much more to make this a dream come true!

  40. I have so many creative passions and feel I have so much potential to do more yet feel like my feet are stuck in the sand. I am a licensed cosmetologist and love to do hair and makeup but also find my true passions in decorating, styling, diy, repurposing, drawing, vintage etc. I currently work full time at Starbucks as a manager and do hair and makeup on the side and I’ve been doing this for years, I really get down and feel I need to live a life full of creativity and pursuing more of my passions!!!! I am hoping with this course it will give me the skills and encouragement I need to jump in!!! It would be a dream if mine to have my own business, work from home and have a blog/ website! Please pick me and help my dreams come true!!! I feel like this is just what I need!!! It’s meant to be, because I randomly clicked on your site today and it’s the last day to enter!!!! I am so in awe if your house and style!!! 🙂 Thank you!!!!!

  41. I’m an artist in glass and pottery. I would like to learn how to expand my work on etsy and the internet. I’ve been asked by many people if my work is online and it isn’t. I don’t know how to do all the above to promote myself out of my own surroundings for which I do have a following. Glass is hard to photograph so that’s been a challenge. Keeping the books, client lists, all of that is what I would like to learn. I have followed your blogs and I’ve always admired all the hard work that goes into what you do. I’ve had many shows and the work to create that is very hard. I just need to learn all the follow through. I know I would learn a lot from you talented ladies.

  42. When I was a young woman someone told me that to succeed don’t listen to advice from the people who failed, all they can teach you is what doesn’t work. From that point on the advice I listened too was always what worked for people, not what didn’t. So there is my reason.

  43. I am trying to start my own online vintage re-sale business in order to be able to stay at home with kids!

  44. I would really like to take this class because I have been a primitive crafter/repurposer for many years and am ready to take the next step! I am a retired elementary principal who went back to work because I missed being around people! I have a craft booth at 2 different shows during the year and really love creating my items and visiting with the customers! Many have asked me about a website and where to purchase my items after the show. My business could be growing! I really believe I could make my business much bigger and better if I had the knowledge of how-to-do-it!! This class sounds like the perfect fit for me! Thank you for the opportunity to take the class!!

  45. I have been a creative for as long as I can remember, (and that’s a long time!). I have been making and trying to sell things almost as long. Most creatives, myself included eat, sleep and breathe colors, designs, ideas, but hardly ever breathe business plans, advertising, accounting and sales forecasts. I would love to make a living with my handcrafted goods, while passing along that information to a small art based youth groups in my community. This class sounds like the opportunity to learn and pay it forward for much greater rewards.

  46. Good post. Everyone is seeking for money in todays world and to earn online is many peoples choice.
    This will surely be the good post for the people lije me who are addicted to computer and internet and wanted to earn…
