EP53 How To Tell If A Course Is Actually Worth It

from Artist to Artist · host Angie Di Battista

Are you course shopping your way to success? Let's chat.  Most makeup artists are spending way too much on courses that aren't moving the needle in their career. You think you need more information, but what you really need is better information. In this episode, I'm sharing the 5 questions you need to ask yourself before buying any course - whether it's beauty school, online training, or in-person workshops. The 5 Questions to Ask Before Buying Any Course: Is this instructor currently working in the industry AND do they have enough experience that aligns with what they're teaching? What specific problem will this solve for me right now? Do I have the time and commitment to actually complete this? Is this instructor teaching the "why" behind the techniques, not just the "how"? What support will I get when I have questions specific to MY situation? Key Takeaways: Stop collecting information and start building actual skills. There are more bad programs than good ones - and some will leave you thinking you're prepared when you're not course hoarding keeps you stuck in "student mode" instead of developing real professional skills. The proximity to a working artist is invaluable - but only if you actually engage with it. There's no magic solution or course that will fast-track you to success. This Month in the Artist to Artist Membership: We're covering the business basics that actually matter for booking and keeping clients - the practical systems you need, client management skills, and how to bridge the gap between what you've learned and what you actually need to do the job.
