WHY FINANCIAL LITERACY?
In 2021, You Belong Here collected survey data from over 150 San Diego based creatives and small businesses. The number one topic on everyone’s mind is Financial Literacy.
As creative small businesses, we’re most likely called to start our creative businesses as a way to share our art, our voice, and challenge systems and beliefs. I mean, who wouldn’t want to grow their wealth doing what they are most passionate about while positively impacting our communities and (dare we say) the world?
The work that we do as creatives, brings voices to our communities. Yet, according to the report released by Center for Cultural Innovation (CCI), Creativity Connects: Trends and Conditions affecting U.S. Artists, it reveals creative businesses are not developing the wealth at the rate of other small businesses and startups outside of the creative realm; not because our ideas are not significant, but because we lack the foundation of business development (i.e., financial literacy). Of course this is no fault of our own. Many of us creatives, while in school, didn't have a curriculum focusing on how to leverage our fine arts degree with business development. At the same time, we generally believe in the bigger picture outside of money; social justice, climate change, peace, love, and humanity. Spreadsheets, balance sheets, cash flow forecasts, profit and loss sheets, amortization, appreciation, depreciation–this isn’t in our realm and has nothing to do with changing the world. So we think?
Yet, money (unfortunately) makes the world go round. And if we don't develop an understanding of our worth and our wealth, we will remain the statistics we are creating awareness about.
You Belong Here believes the economic growth and empowerment of the Artist is at stake. How can we build systems of change and support our communities if we are burnt out and barely getting by? These very questions are why You Belong Here is bringing back our monthly morning business development series, Brunch Crunch.
We hope to see you soon!
