Business Coaching for Creative Professionals

Are you ready to take the leap but still a little scared of the risks?  I met Vinh Van Lam and Stuart Horrex, co- owners  of Quantum Compass at the Melbourne Stitches & Craft Show. What impressed me was how grounded and 'real world' their advice and ideas were. Their Business Coaching model has been developed esecially for Artists, Artisans, Crafters, and Designers who are ready to take their business' to the next level.
