Grow a business you love… that fits your LIFE!
Let me introduce you to my proven, practical system for building a profitable, sustainable business that works (I've got eight years of testimonials to back it up!) ... and gives you your life back along the way.
The Blueprint Model is a self-paced online business and finance program created specifically for creative entrepreneurs. It’s your a-z blueprint for starting and growing a profitable (actually puts money in your pocket), sustainable (doesn’t sacrifice your life to the non-stop hustle), and life-enriching business!
Created by former Fortune 100 financial advisor, Shanna Skidmore, this is THE business program every creative entrepreneur needs to make money doing what they love.
without sacrificing your health, sanity and relationships along the way!

Shanna's content met me right where I was at- and I watched it do the same for everyone else. I believe this course can radically improve your business no matter what season you are in, which is pretty amazing! When I signed up, I read a review that said if you couldn't afford the course then to sell something, because it was that good. I thought that was a bit of an exaggeration- but having walked through it now- I 110% agree! Find a way to invest because NOTHING is disappointing, left out, or presented as a shortcut. The course is so well created, with so much intention and thought poured into every step. This was hands down the best business investment I have made!

I'm 82% booked for next year as of this morning. Thats WILD. Normally right now, I might have 25% booked for the following year and one client just booked me at my highest package and a zillion extra hours—so it's a hair shy of 10k.....which totally blows my little mind to smithereens. You have impacted my life {and that of my family} in SO MANY WAYS - I’m not sure I could ever thank you enough! Today I actually set up an auto transfer from my business checking to my personal checking… and I will actually get paid the same amount every.single.friday…. Insane right? 8 years doing this full-time and I’m finally giving myself an actual salary. All thanks to Shanna Skidmore and this class!

The Blueprint Model is a self-paced online business course. I took everything I learned from the past fifteen years in finance and working with thousands of business owners and simplified the key elements of success into six essential "building blocks". From pricing to money mindset to goal setting, you'll learn how to turn your business dream into an income-generating, life-enriching, enjoyable business without burnout.
The entire program is available online inside our members-only website so you can learn from the comfort of your pjs while the baby naps and re-watch as often as possible. Our community aspect is #squadgoals and includes bi-monthly coaching calls live with Shanna to get individual feedback on what you're working on.
Former Fortune 100 financial advisor turned business consultant for creative entrepreneurs, I'm on a mission to bridge the gap between the world of money and creative entrepreneurship so you can feel confident in your finances, clarity in your direction, and freedom to go on creating just as long as your heart desires!
My belief is simple: Business doesn’t have to mean hustle and client-work grind ‘til midnight. It doesn’t have to mean skipping paydays. It can mean margin, and it can mean rest.
A numbers girl living in a creative world!
I created The Blueprint Model just for you, the creative one.

I'm feeling so much better in my business because I'm in control and I'm not being controlled by my customer. This is the best money I've spent in my life, which is saying a lot because the second best money I've ever spent was to go see Beyonce in concert. You're ahead of Beyonce.

I have my cash flow plan beside me and I have been up SIXTY FREAKING PERCENT this whole year simply by planning ahead for slow months and all the sudden the money is there. What! You are brilliant and I am so grateful for you and the way you love us and take care of our hearts and just are YOU! I sometimes feel like that 2nd grade kid who’s like, “Teacher! Look - I did my homework!”

Before the Blueprint Model, I had no idea what any of my numbers were or what they were supposed to be. When you don’t know those numbers, you don’t really know what’s possible for you. So with this new knowledge in mind, in 2016 I made a choice to pivot my business completely. I looked at the numbers. And I made the choices I needed to step into those moments by launching my greeting card business, Little Well Paper Co. And I did it completely debt free!
