LET'S GET REAL

You’re talented. You’re working hard. But the money isn’t matching the effort.

Sound familiar?  

 You’re burned out from undercharging.  
You’ve got amazing work… but no consistent sales system. 

👉 You’re not the problem.  
Your system is.

Introducing The Factory's 3-month guided program for Creatives
who are ready to build a business that actually pays.

MONTH 1  
Each week is laser-focused on one part of your creative business foundation.

  • Money Mindset + Audit → Clear the mental noise and understand where your money’s leaking 
  • Offer Design + Pricing Strategy → Build (or refine) your creative offer — product, service, or both — and price it to actually pay you  
  • Selling Without Feeling Weird → Learn how to talk about your work, pitch it, and sell it without feeling fake, sleazy, or apologetic  
  • Build Your Sales System → Learn how to attract buyers, set up repeatable sales actions, and get visible without being online 24/7 
  • 🧰 Comes with: Worksheets, templates, and video training built for creatives (not marketers)

🗓️ MONTH 2 & 3  
Execution & Support
This is where the real shift happens — because you’re not doing it alone.

  • You get:  Weekly live calls for feedback, clarity, and momentum 
  • Peer check-ins and group chat to stay accountable  
  • On-demand access to tools and templates for launching, selling, pitching, pricing, and more  
  • You’ll be doing the work with others who get it — no more spinning in circles on your own.

 " The factory is brilliant. The one thing I hated about being self employed was not being able to trouble shoot with anyone. I always have questions & the best thing about the factory is the Q&As twice a week where Tara will help with absolutely any questions. Best money I’ve spent on my business, highly recommend."

KATHRYN'S STORY

" NOW I HAVE FOCUS AND TARGETS"

Kathryn had been trading for a period but had no support network or focus in her everyday. Our weekly calls and workshops gave her the ability to structure her calendar. Now her days have a system to work from.

AILISH'S STORY

" THE STEP BY STEP ON WHAT TO DO, TO GET THE BEST OUT OF OUR BUSINESSES."

Ailish kids had left the nest and she was finishing her longtime career to follow her dream of being an artist. Never in her wildest dreams did she think she could achieve as much as she had over the last 2 years since joining The Factory.

ELMARIE'S STORY

" STEP BY STEP GUIDES - UNBELIEVABLE. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER "

Elmaire & Charlie Mahon have built an established ceramic brand with a manufacturing unit and retail space. Elmarie is implementing  each training in order using our accountability & focus sessions.

FIONA'S STORY

" MY BUSINESS WAS GOING NOWHERE - FAST! NOW I HAVE FOCUS "

Fiona was already working on her business but not seeing any results when she signed up. Fiona used what she learnt to up-skill & improve her processes, allowing her to land media, awards and a better grasp on selling.

HELEN'S STORY

" I AM TWO YEARS AHEAD  OF WHERE I THOUGHT I'D BE"

Helen had spent years working hard creating ceramic pieces for markets. Growing but not doing what she really wanted.  Now she has ditched her production line and had her first sell out solo show - focusing on gallery and collectors. Doing what she LOVES! 

HELEN'S STORY

" FINDING SOMEONE THAT GRASPS WHAT I DO IS INVALUABLE"

Helen was out of the 'art world' for years lacking in confidence with zero network. By joining The Factory, she developed her glass practice and secured her very own kiln. 

 "The Factory has truly transformed my approach to business.  I always struggled to connect with the right audience and achieve my goals consistently. Thanks to Tara's guidance, I've not only learned how to capture the attention of the right people but also gained the confidence to navigate this journey successfully."

OLA
Stories By Ola - Ceramicist ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 "The Factory has completely changed my business, in fact I I wouldn't be where I am today, without it. I am forever grateful to Tara and all my 'colleagues' ☺️. If I am stuck there's always someone to bounce ideas off of and give advice. When you're a solo entrepreneur, that's absolutely priceless!"

LOUISE O HARA
CULU Design - Jewellery designer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 "Every week, Tara has helped me to focus on what’s important, and to do things in the right order. Sincerely, I can’t praise the Biscuit Factory highly enough to do them justice. Joining up was a bigger turning point than I hoped or imagined. If you’re thinking about joining, do it!  

ARDEN O REILLY COUNAHAN
GUITAR CARDS - Musician ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our members are making serious moves — getting featured in the press, hosting their first solo exhibitions, building dream studios, selling in Brown Thomas & Arnotts, winning awards, quitting their 9–5s, opening galleries and co-op spaces, landing retail partnerships, and exhibiting at Art Source, Showcase, and Gifted. The wins are real — and they’re just getting started.

BUT THE BIGGEST WIN?
STANDING CONFIDENTLY AS IRISH CREATIVES.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Month 1 is the most intense with a live call every week 1 hour ( always recorded for your student portal to access 24/7 ) with tasks to achieve. During month 1 as you learn the support calls are still active twice a week so it depends on how much support you need. 
Month 2 & 3 people usually hop in to our live calls every Wednesday & Friday at 10am to get help with what to do next or learn from others asking the same things. Learning is one thing - staying accountable on focused on that learning is the hard bit. I always suggest to carve out 3 hours a week to work on this stuff.

We have kindness at the centre and if life happens and you cannot be part of the training and calls then by the cut off date of 30th September we will refund you. No refunds once we begin the work I am afraid. Thank you for respecting that.

Ideally yes. The 4 weeks in month 1 are designed for people already selling. Be mindful that if you have been out there and NOT selling this is the best place you can be. If you are a beginner with an idea and no product, social or website this is not the package for you.

We begin this particular series on September 30th at 10am - you will be able to access our private group and meet others the weekend of 26th Sep

The Starter Pack - is our entry product for people that want to learn and be in our community group but not go through a structured course or have live support calls weekly. This is always available. 

As long as you are a member you have FULL access to all our workshops, interviews, courses etc FOREVER!!! We are adding to our library every week for you to access when you need it. Once you cancel. you loose access to the libarary of content.
