Why Every Creative Should Know About the Creative Entrepreneurs Club

(And why I’m so excited to partner with them…and be an affiliate*)

Being a creative can feel like living on an island.

Your ideas are big, your skills are unique, your energy comes in waves… and sometimes you just want to be around people who get it.

Designers, musicians, writers, podcasters, filmmakers, theatre-makers, illustrators, photographers, editors, makers, dreamers – we’re all wired a little differently. We thrive in community. We spark off each other. We learn faster together.

That’s why I’m such a big fan of the Creative Entrepreneurs Club (CEC) and why I’m thrilled to be collaborating and affiliating myself with them even more moving forward.

I’ve been an active member for a few years now, and I’ve seen first-hand how valuable the right creative community can be. This one is special.

What makes the Creative Entrepreneurs Club different?

It’s global.
It’s inclusive.
It’s practical.
And it’s designed with real creatives in mind – whether you’re full-time, freelance, or building your dream alongside a day job.

Here’s what you get for the frankly ridiculous price of £6/month (+VAT). That’s under $10 USD.

As a non-profit, the cost is intentionally low so creatives everywhere can join.

1. A community of likeminded creatives – worldwide

Whether you’re in Glasgow, Glendale, Sydney or São Paulo, you’ll find people who speak your language:
ideas, experiments, feelings, clients, deadlines, blocks, breakthroughs.

The Club is growing globally, and this is the moment to get in early.

2. Monday Morning Meetups (11am UK)

A weekly dose of connection, accountability, and inspiration run by an award winning writer for film and theatre – Sandy Thomson.*
Some people come for the energy.
Others come for the structure.
Many come because it’s nice to start the week with people who understand what creative work really feels like.

The discussions can and do litearlly go anywhere…

3. Talks, workshops and expert sessions

You get access to speakers and specialists from every corner of the creative world.
Design. Business. Mindset. Funding. AI. Tech. Storytelling.
It changes constantly – in the best way.

4. 1:1 sessions with top advisors

Yes, for your £6.00 you get to book two actual one-to-one time with experienced creative professionals including CEC founder – Rachael Arnold.*

Sometimes you just need an outside brain to talk through a project, pitch or problem.
This alone is worth far more than the membership fee.

5. In-person coworking (if you’re local)

And this is growing.
The more the membership expands, the more coworking opportunities will pop up across Scotland and beyond.

6. And for those who follow my Canva world…

Your membership also gives you the cheapest and easiest way to work with me live every month.
I’m excited to be kicking off Third Thursdays at 3pm – a fun, friendly session packed with Canva and AI tips, tricks, critiques and live Q&A.

Members get access, connection, and community all in one place.

This is why I’m excited to promote them

I’ve watched the Club evolve.

Brilliant people were met through it.

Even manged to get paid Canva training through my membership!

And now, with their brand-new website relaunch, the whole experience is even better – cleaner, smarter, more community-driven, and full of opportunities to grow your creative business.

This isn’t just a membership.

It’s a creative home base.

If you’re a creative of any kind, then join us.

Whether you design, write, record, produce, stitch, draw, code, sing, film or invent…
you belong here.
