Damon, an Army Officer, attended our"Paint & Wine Studio" seminar. He served twice as an infantry commander in Iraq, and several months in Haiti, commanding in both the 101st and 82nd Airborne. He attended in order to help his wife develop her sip and paint business and described our program as "a fantastic training experience".
In March of 2011 we began offering the "Paint & Wine Business Seminar". Having over a decade of experience teaching seminars in the arts and small business, it only made sense to begin hosting entrepreneurs with an interest in the "sip and paint" industry.The course was an immediate hit for several reasons -- it's the first and only seminar of its kind, covering every operational aspect of the paint and wine oriented studio. Prior to this, you either opened and "winged it", or entered an expensive franchise with a long-term agreement. Either way, you just kind of hoped you would enjoy being in the industry after a heavy investment. In our seminar you get to "test drive" all aspects of the business, from painting technique, inventory, class layout and setup, customer payment processing, receiving and hosting, down to the clean-up.
Since its inception, we've taught several mother and daughter operations and a mixed bag of individuals from all over the United States. Many came with just "wanting to check it out", and left being deadset on starting a business. Others came with the intention of doing business and left doing so as well, but said they were grateful for the experience because there was more to it than they realized, and this would help them immensely.
We will continue to offer the seminar throughout the end of 2013, here's a link to the program.
