Hey, I’m Shanna Skidmore. Former Fortune 100 Financial Advisor turned Business Consultant. For the past 15 years I’ve worked in finance helping entrepreneurs around the world make more money and then manage it well. During that time I’ve unlocked the blueprint to building a profitable and sustainable business designed to align with the life you want to live.

Here’s the thing—the "business side of running a business" can be hard, and it’s not everyone’s best skill—but it *is* mine. I would be honored to come alongside you on your business journey.

How to build a profitable business… One of the most asked questions I receive. After years of working with thousands of creative entrepreneurs, I can safely bet that money likely wasn’t the reason you launched your business. Whether your journey into entrepreneurship was by chance or accident, out of love for your craft or a desire for more freedom— I’ve truly seen it all. And while money isn’t everything (I see you, Kanye), it is the key to staying in business, beating burnout, & finding the freedom to lead a life you love.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and underpaid, it’s likely time we pull out the magnifying glass & take a deep dive on those sneaky little business numbers.

I sat down with Bonnie Christine of The Professional Creative Podcast to discuss how to build a profitable business.

In this interview, we dive into my transition from finance to helping creative entrepreneurs thrive. From how I grew my business revenue by 248% after stepping away from social media to managing a multi six-figure business while working just twenty hours a week (yes, you read that right – twenty hours!), we pack all of my favorite subjects into this conversation.

If you are curious about how to redefine your business approach, build a profitable business, and find balance in your life, then press play for the full interview or browse the highlights below!
