The Creative Entrepreneur review

A $17.99 ebook on making a living from creative work, sold under a doctorate that is not a real field.

Pass

Artists, makers and designers who undercharge and market reluctantly are a real audience, and the emotional obstacle this book names, the reluctance to treat the work as a business, is usually the binding one. That is a good observation. The execution has the catalogue's standard problems: no pricing worked examples, no platform specifics for selling work, and a credited doctor with a PhD in Creative Entrepreneurship and thirty-one years, which is not an awarded degree. Craft associations and arts councils publish pricing and contract guidance for creative businesses free, and it is specific to the trade.

The business side of making things

From idea to product, branding, storytelling, marketing and the identity problem.

Naming the reluctance to charge properly as the main obstacle is accurate.

Trade bodies get more specific

Craft associations and arts councils publish pricing, contract and licensing guidance.

That material is trade-specific and free, which a generic ebook cannot match.

The co-author's degree does not exist

The listing credits Dr. Maria Hunter with a PhD in Creative Entrepreneurship and 31 years of experience. No university awards a doctorate in that, and it is the pattern across all 84 titles from this seller: each book gets its own doctor with a PhD in exactly that book's subject.

Three of those names appear twice with different doctorates and different decades of experience, so the credentials are generated rather than held.

The rest of the numbers are decoration

Claims 378000+ readers, although the seller has no website, no catalogue page and no way to check. The $47 regular price sits next to $17.99 on every title in the catalogue and is never charged.

The reviews carry first names and US or European cities, which cannot be verified either.

The Creative Entrepreneur FAQ

Is it for a specific craft?

No, it stays general across creative fields.

Only in principle, with no worked examples.

How much does it cost?

$17.99 as a one-time payment, with no sales tax added for a US address.
