What is Stationery Bootcamp?
Stationery Bootcamp is an online training course designed to assist those who, like me, are very passionate about custom stationery design, but are in the same place I was 14 years ago...not knowing where to start and what it entails to run a custom stationery design studio. Back in 2002 when I decided I would become a wedding stationery designer, there weren't as many online resources as there are now and there was no such thing as Stationery Bootcamp. It took me a couple of years of trial and error to develop a system that would confidently and effectively get me from the initial client consultation all the way through print production and delivery. At the beginning I had so many questions regarding pricing, proper file setup and finding the right resources that would allow me to succeed in this field. Today, through Stationery Boot Camp, I answer all these questions as well as those questions that entry-level designers/freelancers don't even know to ask yet. Who is Stationery Bootcamp designed for?
This course is designed for entry-level designers and paper crafters who want to establish themselves as custom wedding stationery designers. Weather you are looking for a career change or looking to turn a hobby into a business (as I did), the lessons provided in Stationery Bootcamp will prepare you to excel in your craft and thrive as a creative professional. The virtual classroom (this password-protected website) is updated with new lessons a few times a year, and the best part is that once you've enrolled in Stationery Bootcamp, you'll have access to the lessons for life. Learn at your own pace and learn from the added lessons as they become available.
The Designer Arsenal One thing I learned early in my career is that organization is key to your success! Once you begin working with clients you will learn that it takes about 30 hours to complete an order of 100 custom designed invitations, and out of that, only about one third of the time is spent conceptualizing and designing, while the other two thirds of the time are spent managing the project. The lessons found in the Designer Arsenal within Stationery Bootcamp will arm you with the right tools to execute all tasks relating to design and press production. You will set up systems that will allow you to transition from one phase of the project to the next seamlessly. You will also learn how to and apply time-saving methods to those systems, allowing you to spend less time on operating tasks and more time doing what you love! There are currently 13 Lessons in the Designer Arsenal Below are some of the main topics covered in the course:
New lessons will be added by the end of Spring 2019
