Luggage Tag Business Plan Course
Sarah Longfield Coaching
Does the idea of writing a business plan for your small business bore you silly? This course plus live workshop will help you create a succinct, effective and creative strategy plus a workplan for the rest of 2026. 🏷️All for £39🏷️ The Luggage Tag Business Plan is designed to help creative small businesses, freelancers and artists revisit the fundamental WHY you are doing what you do and how you do it. Cutting out the white noise and all the "shoulds" around what a business plan is supposed to look like, this course pares it down to the most important stuff, all of which fits on a luggage tag which can act as a visible aid to help with clarity on decision making, re-finding your motivation and helping you move forward. If you buy the course before the 14th May, you will also get a bonus live workshop on zoom where we will take the tag and turn it into a workplan for the rest of 2026 which you can implement immediately. (Recording available for anyone who can't make it live). This course + free workshop is for: 🏷️ Sole traders who want some clarity on their business 🏷️ Freelancers who would like a framework around what they do 🏷️ Artists short on time but know they need to have a plan 🏷️ Anyone thinking of quitting the job to set up on their own This course is brought to you by Sarah Longfield, a creative business coach based in Glasgow but working online across the UK and internationally. She supports amazing creatives to find the golden thread through their work, get clear on their priorities, motivates them to implement plans that work and helps them to acknowledge the wins and celebrate the successes. The Luggage Tag Business Plan came into the world from a frustration at seeing so many brilliant people feeling constrained by what planning should look like - this is a gentle rebellion in ripping up the rule book so you can do it your way. Luggage tags are optional. If you want a deeper level of support, if you sign up to Sarah's coaching programme, you can get the Luggage Tag offer included in your first month, so for £99 you will get one 1-2-1 session, access to The Library of Useful Things, weekly whatsapp check ins, lifetime access to The Luggage Tag Business Plan AND the workshop on the 14th May .
