Michelle and Sara are two business strategists who’ve helped hundreds of voice teachers, other music teachers, multi-teacher studio owners, performers, and even those serving these kinds of artists build long-term, money-making businesses while maintaining their values, peace, and creative integrity... After years of being asked to create a podcast, they finally succumbed. And now they are here to share the hard-won wisdom you won’t find in generic business courses, or the “I did it, you can too” corner of the internet. Bold discourse that doesn’t shy away from loving your fiercely while telling you the truth about yourself to your face, Sara and Michelle keep it spicy, silly, empowering, and most of all: relevant to today’s business owners in the performing arts. These women are in the trenches every day, they’ve made mistakes, somehow lived to tell about it, and they want to share with you their hard-won thoughts on the personal and professional development needed to run your business, so you fall in love with (AND TRUST!) your boss.

    Episode 1: Why “Scaling” Might Be Killing Your Arts Business

    Episode 1: Why “Scaling” Might Be Killing Your Arts Business Welcome to the very first episode of How to Run Your Business Without Hating Your Boss! Hi, we’re Michelle Markwart Deveaux and Sara Campbell - two business strategists who’ve helped hundreds of voice teachers, music educators, multi-teacher studio owners, performers, and creative entrepreneurs build sustainable, money-making businesses that actually align with their values. In this episode, we’re tackling a big myth in the entrepreneurial world: 👉 That scaling is always the answer. Here’s what we’ll cover today: Why online business advice about scaling may secretly be sabotaging your arts business. How “bigger” doesn’t always mean more profitable (or more sustainable). Why staying exactly the size you are - or even downsizing - might be the smartest business move you can make. The mindset traps that lead creative entrepreneurs to feel like failures if they’re not “scaling like Instagram says.” We’ve been in the trenches ourselves, and we know the pressure creative business owners face. So grab your coffee, tea, or whatever helps with business-induced anxiety, and let’s dig in. 🎧 Listen now to learn why you don’t have to scale to succeed.
