 Art For Impact

A 12 month coaching program for artists that want their work to pay and to matter.

​You have been making your art, putting it into the world, getting positive feedback. Somewhere in the process, you’ve felt the pull of something larger, the sense that your art has the power to genuinely impact people, to change something, to matter beyond the sale or the performance. You want to thrive from your art.

 

12 months, one on one, via zoom.

PERSONAL GUIDANCE - ONE ON ONE

​

A TWELVE MONTH COACHING JOURNEY

​

Your art was meant for more.

​

Art for Impact is a custom tailored coaching journey built entirely around you. Your medium, your vision, your audience, your life. Over twelve months we clarify your identity as an artist, build the brand and voice that communicates your work to the world, and co-develop two revenue-generating products that grow your income and your impact simultaneously.

​

I move with you, not ahead of you.

01

 

Identity & Brand

Clarify who you are as an artist, who your work is for, and how to speak to them with confidence and precision.

02

​

Products & Revenue

Build two revenue-generating offerings from your creative practice, workshops, experiences, or other vehicles that pay and impact.

03

 

Platform & Impact

Build the audience, content strategy and partnerships that carry your work into the world with intention and growing reach.

WHAT IT'S LIKE WORKING WITH ME

​​​

I walk beside you as a trusted guide ​​

​

Every two weeks we meet via zoom, for a long session. I come in with a plan for where we’re headed. Then I pay attention to you. If you walk in lit up about an idea, we chase it. If you walk in stuck, we figure out why first.

 

Some days we’re building your pricing. Some days you’re saying what your work is about out loud, again and again, until it sounds like you and people get it.

 

Between sessions there’s a short check in every week, so things keep moving. And you can text me when something comes up. It will, usually at the worst possible time. 

​

One of my clients was stuck on figuring out what kind of organizations she could partner with. By digging deep into her origin story we found the right causes that aligned with her life experiences. The people involved in that work happened to be the people that felt her art the most! She now has a partnership that not only brings in steady revenue, but also allows her to serve a cause that matters deeply to her.

"Through my experience participating in Art for Impact coaching, I've come to appreciate the rare combination of grounding, calming presence and genuine inspiration that Antonio brings. He creates an environment where growth feels safe, achievable, and exciting.

 

I appreciate how practical everything feels. He has a way of making the process of bringing my vision to life feel possible, tangible, and within reach. His passion, experience, and alignment with his purpose shine through naturally, and I can feel how genuinely he cares about the people he serves and their success.

ABOUT YOUR GUIDE

​

I have built a sustainable creative career across composition, filmmaking, photography and coaching, while remaining rooted in purpose and impact. My work has supported campaigns raising over $100M for social and environmental causes.

 

I share my experiences from the inside of a creative life that works, one built through the same process I walk you through. I light up when I see you accomplish your goals and celebrate each win with you!

Ted K. / Visual Artist, Writer

I feel that it gave me new tools and questions to ask of my writing, of myself, and my aims in writing to help me with direction in doing it, judging it, and then editing it.

 

I was basically throwing darts at concepts in the dark, merely guessing most of the time.

 

Now I have somewhere to go, and a place of truth to arrive at (that’s how I look at it, anyway).

 

Truth is always part of a winning formula I believe.
