What does "Art Admin" mean?
It means we do the stressful, boring, time-consuming tasks that come with running a creative business.
We provide behind-the-scenes administrative support to artists, musicians, painters, illustrators, photographers, videographers, designers, coders or anyone who’s creative for a living on Vancouver Island.

Then you know why we’re here.
Whether you're wanting to start a creative business, grow one, or maintain one we can help with the things you currently need to make your business work.
We are not a marketing agency, we are not a gallery, and we are not your managers. You’re the boss and we’re here to help you succeed in whatever way that means to you.
PRICING
Our pricing model, like our approach to work, is flexible to ensure it is accessible and works the way that you need it to. We believe that each task should be billed and quoted for individually for your context. For any project, we’ll asses what needs to be done, work within your budget, and let you choose which one of these payment approaches works best for you. We want you to feel like the services you want are worth the payment you're making for them.
FLAT RATE
The traditional pay per hour approach. We estimate how many hours upfront, and communicate with you as the work progresses. If it looks like its going to take longer, we talk before we go past estimates.
PROJECT FEE
We agree on a project fee and clearly defined scope with definition-of-done upfront. You pay that fee: No more, no less. If scope changes, it is because we've talked and you agree with the decision.
RETAINER FEE
You pay us a flat fee per month and we do whatever is required.The monthly fee is based on what kind of admin you want from us. Contracts can be month to month or for set periods of time.
PROFIT SHARING
A collaborative partnership approach where we only win if you win. Work is done by us for free upfront. Then an agreed % of revenue is paid for a period of time we agree on based on work scope.
You: I want to figure out my creative business!
US: Fantastic! How can we help?
