The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is this…

"Just because you fell, doesn't mean you've failed... You only fail when you refuse to get back up"

That helped me shift my perspective in a major way to keep on my grind until I reach my goal.

Even Nelson Mandela had a way of shifting his perspective in discouraging times by saying, "I never lose. Either I win or I learn."

That's Facts.✊🏾 Learning from your experience is a valuable piece of advice for any season.

I’m curious, what’s yours?

Drop the best piece of advice you've been given in the comments.

📣 “I’m shutting this thang down, Family”

Yee… ⏰ 48 HOURS LEFT ⏰

Time is running out to grab your spot on the COCRE8VISION Program

And I’ve had a BUNCH of questions, so I wanna cover some important stuff real quick...

If you are still sitting on the fence, here is what you need to know...

👉🏾 When does it start?
✅ On Dec 5th, 21 Founding Members of COCRE8VISION will kick off their journey working closely with me to achieve a 7 figure business model without sacrificing their creative freedom.

👉🏾 Who is it for?
✅ The program is specifically designed to put an end to the 'Starving Artist' assumption. It’s designed for people who’ve tried balancing a full-time job while building their creative vision on the side and still haven’t been able to fully transition into being self-employed through their art.

👉🏾 What’s included?
✅ You’ll get a step-by-step Visioneering roadmap, business structure cheat sheet, communication templates, personal leadership Assessments, group mastermind sessions, 1on1 coaching calls, creative community, a private app, and more, valued at over $1,997.

👉🏾 Can I join this program later for the same price?
✅ Of course the COCRE8VISION Program will be available at a later date. However, the price and experience will be drastically different! The founding members have a unique opportunity to work closely with me to create their ideal reality and provide valuable feedback to help me deliver even more value to the Creative Entrepreneurs that come after them. This will result in an increase in our offer price due to adding these additional features and whatever courses the founding members decide to co-create with me.

To grab one of the remaining spaces comment below with...

CRE8OR

Then hold tight for me to send you the sign-up details straight into your messenger inbox.

But act fast… You’ve only got 48hrs before registration is closing!

Are you a Creative Professional?

How are you supposed to inspire the world with your creativity if no one sees the unique value of your vision? 😤

Is it actually possible to generate sustainable income from your art without spending years studying to stay up to date with finance and business trends?! 🤯

How do you find the ⏰ TIME ⏰ to get your 10,000 hours of practice… if you're a solo entrepreneur or have a full-time job?

Is the constant battle to be self-employed really worth it?

🤔 Should you even look for investors or seek business loans?

🤔 Are you doing the back-end admin/operations right? How often do you check your systems?

🤔 What about having a business plan? Do creatives even need those?

If any (or all) of the above questions run through your head… day after day… I might be able to help.

Peace Family, it's Ace Johnson here… 👋🏾

And, while I don't claim to know it all, I HAVE helped dozens of Creative Professionals transform their unique vision & personal life by creating a sustainable step-by-step action plan. They call themselves CRE8ORS.

And yet…
Not that long ago, I was also in your shoes.

I'd take a step forward only to take three more back. I was drowning in the opinions of others and dealing with impostor syndrome for years.

Anyways, if that's kinda how you feel right now...

Let me give you a road map, so that you stop hitting dead ends or getting lost on back roads, and instead take the fast lane to a creative business model that you can be proud of.

Let me show you that no matter the problem you face, learning to BE MORE CRE8IVE is the best solution 💪🏾

👇🏾 Here is what I’m proposing.👇🏾

I’ve had a TON of creatives reach out to me asking for my help.

So I had this crazy idea to build a step-by-step plan to guide you from Freelance Creative to a Creative Professional with a 7 figure business strategy in just 8 weeks.

No fluff. No messing around, just a simple plan to take you from great ideas to an even greater reality.

✅ If you are interested in claiming one of the 21 spots available, comment below with CRE8OR

👉🏾More details to follow tomorrow, on FB at 11:11AM.
