Why this Course Exists

The skills to make good work into good business.

Creative professionals are often trained to do the work, but not to price it, sell it, protect it, or build a business around it. Architecting the Sale brings together the practical lessons Wayne learned by building an award-winning firm, navigating difficult projects, developing long-term client relationships, and closing high-stakes opportunities.
