YOUR OFFERING / MEASURING SUCCESS / BOOKKEEPING
MEETINGS / DELEGATION / STUDIO PROCESSES
GOAL SETTING / THE COMPETITION / STUDIO CULTURE
FINDING WORK / NEGOTIATION / AND MORE ✨

”I loved this book and found it helpful in so many ways. Eli is a great writer - feels like you're sitting across from him, picking his brain on how to run a successful creative studio. I will be recommending this for years to come to everyone I know working to turn their creative mind into a successful business.” —Michael
“One of the most useful marketing books I’ve read in a while. So many of them are either about vague metaphors or theories that have no real world application, or they’re just too basic, but yours was a great balance between how to think of the problem and a methodical path to solving it. I really enjoyed it.” —Ryan
Every hard copy of Run Studio Run ships with this massive A0 (841 x 1189 mm) print highlighting a lesson from each chapter of the book.
