Objective: The seminar focuses on cutting edge technology, planning and organizational skills. Rather than asking “top-down” open-ended questions, this seminar is a “bottom-up” equipping experience. Getting and staying organized is the key to being empowered, positive, and ready to move up to the next stage, and technology can help.
Impact: Each singer leaves with a tangible plan in place. After establishing a priorities list and aligning goals, the seminar culminates in a proclamation of one “action item” from each singer. We make an audio recording of the action items and then email each individual clip following the seminar.
Technology: Participants should bring their laptop computers. They will learn how to take full advantage of several cutting-edge tools including Google Alerts and OperaBase. Attendees will also earn a free trial of Velvet Singer Software and receive hands-on training during the workshop.
Singers will learn:
- How to run an effective freelance business
