JUST FOR LETTERING ARTISTS

 

There are a lot of business-growth summits, training, and workshops out there. So what makes this one different?

This is the only summit explicitly focused on helping lettering artists with their businesses.

This isn’t general advice for any business out there. Every presentation is specialised for the type of business you want to run as a freelance lettering artist, making it practical and easy to implement immediately.

More importantly, we’re not here to add to your plate. Our goal isn’t to overwhelm you with information overload. Instead, we’re here to take our experience and distil it down to actionable steps to make your business more profitable and stress-free while creating more time for the part you love—making letters!

Watch all of these talks for free!

Twenty-eight innovative biz brains are speaking at the Typism Summit!
Each speaker was hand-selected to share their unique ways of creating, marketing, or building their lettering skills, mindset, and business.

MEET YOUR HOST
 
Hey! I’m Dominique, a design educator, Typism founder and online business builder with a passion for making processes simple and removing the parts of businesses that aren’t working well. After all, with two businesses, two podcasts, and a fulltime job, simplifying is the ONLY way I can manage it all!
 
I created this summit to bring together some of the best in the biz to help you take the next steps in your lettering journey so your business can become more profitable, efficient, and stress-free.

The Details

When

The Typism Pro Summit will run from the 26–28 of July 2023 (evenings in the USA/Europe), and there will be a variety of presentations to choose from each day.

Australia and New Zealand, put the mornings of 27–29 July in your diary.

Where

You can tune into the summit from the comfort of your couch and yoga pants. You can also head to a coffee shop with headphones or watch it on the studio iMac. It's up to you because it's all online!

Presentations

Each presentation is under 20 minutes. Nice and short so you can get the information you need and take action quickly! The presentations will only be available for a limited time to encourage you to take action now.

PARTY IT UP

As well as the talks, you’ll also have access to a Facebook group where we’ll be watching the summit together. You can also hang with the speakers and get your questions answered.

PAYING IT FORWARD

The Typism Community is united by our shared love of letterforms and we think literacy is a right, not a privilege. 10% of all bundle sales will go to support Indigenous literacy through our charity partner, The Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation (ALNF)—a national charity assisting people in our most marginalised communities to gain vital language, literacy and communication skills.

UPGRADE

After registering for your free ticket, you can also upgrade to gain access to the extended access pass. That means you'll receive ongoing access to presentations and worksheets after they expire, and a $1000+ bundle of bonuses from our speakers for a fraction of that price.

The early-bird pricing goes away once the summit starts. You won't want to miss it!
