Offer Lab
the
a 2 month business residency for creative entrepreneurs
breath time, money &creative freedom back in your business
without selling your soul or your free time
You're busy, but only kind of in the way you want
But you aren’t willing to compromise your integrity or wellbeing to grow…..
so you’re stuck
You don't want to burn yourself out to make more & you're kinda over saying yes to whatever comes through the door, plus you're wiped out by the end of every week.
You are devoted to your business but it’s not giving you everything you need.
You don’t just want something new or different.
You are craving a turning point in your career
Where you build the next stage of your business to buy your time back & allow for your creative mind to thrive
You have mad skills & some clients…
But you're making enough to feel abundant & you're not quite sure what to do next
Build a team? Create a course?How about a group program?!
The entrepreneurial urge to start something NEW is the creative-knee-jerk reaction that keeps so many visionaries trapped in the starving artist loop & STUCK on a plateau.
(Not to mention the Biz-fluencers on the internet giving FOMO with their 10,000 options for you to chose from, keeps you feeling dizzy about what to do next.)
And here’s the truth:
Working your ass off isn't a business plan.
Chasing something new again? That’s how your genius gets lost in busywork.
And doing nothing? That’s not an option either.
You’ll wither. Creatively, emotionally, financially.
But that’s not what’s going to happen, cause I built you a method
one that's built for smarter-not-harder people
Build one thing you do masterfully & sell it on repeat
The Offer Method
the perfect repeatable system for growth
1. Build
You leave this phase with one offer you're proud of. Something you love doing, that your best clients actually want, and that brings them back instead of sending them off after one project. No more piecing it together on the fly. You know exactly what you sell and who it's for.
2.Test
You put it out there and see what happens. This is where you find out it works, or find out what to change, before you've bet months on it. Either way you come out with an offer that's been through real conversations with real people, and the confidence that comes from knowing it holds up
3.Sell
Your offer becomes the business. It's set up to keep selling after the Lab ends, so you stop starting from zero every month and start building something that compounds. This is where the scales tip.
But what if I already launched something & it’s not working?
I truly understand how frustrating that can be. Let’s get to the bottom of why and fix it.
The Benefit of the Test
Entrepreneurs notoriously build their businesses like building a boat while going out to sea. Setting sail before you’re ready, just sets you up to drown.
The test is like building a boat and checking for holes before getting in and setting sail.
The Offer Lab
made for the entrepreneur + creative mind to thrive
You want growth
that feels like art & a strategy you can stick to with ease
The Offer Lab is your 2 month creative business residency to build what you become known for.
It’s a lab space & a classroom.
It’s a creative haven where you can test & prod your ideas until they come together in a cohesive vision.
In the Lab you learn along side other entrepreneurs doing amazing things like you. You gain the tools & skills you need to build what’s next.
If you’ve been trying to grow while stifling your creative rebel side, let me show you a smarter way that I designed for people like us.
Sharon is an expander, a wizard and a pioneer of intelligent, mindful business and personal growth. She gave me just one tip that single handedly grew my income even easier, faster and more efficient than I thought possible. This is a journey and I’m thrilled I invested in myself by joining!

I didn’t make a business program based on a trend
The market has changed so drastically thanks to the 2020 coaching boom
endless garbage courses flooding the internet with quick fix programs based on what’s trending
I’ve seen it all & wasted money on more than I’d like to admit….
✖︎ 60K in 60 days
✖︎ 10K Instagram subscribers in a 30 days
✖︎ Launch your Stan Store & quit your day job
✖︎ The Canva hack that will retire your husband
✖︎ Heal your nervous system to make a million
✖︎ The course collection that’s really a word salad
✖︎ Monetize your podcast to be the next Oprah
✖︎ Travel the world working 4 hours week
That’s not what this is.
This is a high touch program for creative entrepreneurs crafted from studying countless businesses that succeeded & even more that failed, to learn what methods are tried & true.
This is a program created from years of experience working with creative entrepreneurs & seeing the same repeating patterns time & time again.
business school + creative residency= Offer Lab
I’m Sharon
Part creative director, part business strategist, full-time creative rebel
I’ve spent my 15 year career at the intersection of creative identity & business evolution.
As an art teacher, gallery curator & residency director, I’ve helped creatives make sense of their brilliance & create moving bodies of work.
As agrad student in Entrepreneurship, I’ve studied what actually scales (hint: the answer is strategy & innovation) & what kills momentum
As abusiness growth strategistI push entrepreneurs forward to grow their business with proven methods to turn their business into their life’s work.
I get the creative brain & how it works.
I also understand what a business needs for longevity.
Too many brilliant business owners work their ass off, make just enough to keep going, & never lock into what they really want.
I did. I see it all the time. It’s a real issue.
So I created a solution.
Sharon is a lifesaver. I had been spinning my wheels creating a business offering that was not right for me or my demographic. The general idea was there, but Sharon helped me craft it into something that solves real problems for my clients, as well as aligning with my goals.
Sharon is the absolute best and I highly recommend that everyone stop trying to figure it all out on your own and call her!

Sharon is the bee's knees! I was at a point in my creative business where I felt like I was plateauing and really needed a professional outside perspective to help me grow into the future. She has been more than helpful in this pursuit by identifying what I needed to shed, refine and discover. I can't thank her enough for the clarity she has given and look forward to her continued guidance

The A’s to your Q’s

The Business Residency inside the Innovation Lab is a dedicated period of strategic development, experimentation, and refinement like a creative residency, but for your business.
Instead of trying to work in your next big move in between client calls or late at night, the time in the Lab gives you structure, support, and a protected space to work on your business with expert eyes on it.
During your time in the Lab, you’ll be beta testing an offer, system, or strategy that fits your next stage of growth. You’ll have consistent access to me as your mentor & strategist, plus learn a repeatable innovation process you’ll use long after the residency ends. Think of it as pressing stop on winging it and finally getting into flow with a real plan.
-
A HIGHLY supported container to work on the future of your business. In the Lab you have
A real partner in the process. 1 to 1 strategy calls with me plus copy & work review.
Your own Innovation Toolkit in Notion, so you can track insights, experiments, and decisions in one place and use the method again anytime your business hits a growth edge.
A repeatable innovation process to help you test and validate ideas instead of guessing.
Teaching Labs: bi-weekly live calls with me and other Lab members to learn new skills , ask questions, get feedback and keep moving forward.
-
I have too, which is why I designed this program for what you actually need to be successful. The Innovation Lab is built like a hybrid between business school and an artist residency. I’m not going to release you into the wild with a little information and some videos.
You’ll bring your real business challenges and projects into the Lab, and we’ll refine them together. That includes things like copy review, offer structure, business model evaluation, and idea testing. You will see me every week for 3 months and we will make sure life doesn’t life you into not finishing.

They are dope af.
Calls consist of a small intimate group of creative entrepreneurs getting together to work through their business growth. Each person gets time with me to bring to the table what they are working through, so there is never a lull in your progress OR I will teach on a process or skill that we all need to work on.
Sometimes other participants will share their insight if appropriate. You get a community of like minded people & regular support to keep you growing with ease.
-
ALWAYS. I will always offer a payment plan for every budget. My goal is to make business growth as accessible as possible. There are so many over priced programs out there with limited support. This is not that.
-
ABSOLUTELY YES! I work with creative minded entrepreneurs, which is pretty much any entrepreneur really. Since this is ultimately a creative process, that’s why I use the term creative entrepreneur. But seeing as you have made it this far in the sales page, I would say you are a perfect fit.
-
It depends. In our first call, we aim to Curate what you already have. By evaluating your current business we streamline what you have in order to eliminate any piddly little shit. That will give you some space to breath so you can start the next phase of growth. Most of my clients spend a few hours a week working on what they need to to get momentum.
