“My consulting session with April was SO helpful to me and my creative business, who knew an hour could make such a difference. I’m more focused on my goals and how to achieve them. I recommend it to anyone who’s just starting or has an existing creative business. April Totally Rocks!” – Kristin Maynes

“I had the wonderful opportunity to work with April in four one-on-one sessions this past winter.  I can’t even begin to describe how much those four sessions have changed the scope and direction of my fledgling creative business.  Between her insightful questions, solid advice, strategic thinking, humor and positive attitude, April was able to bring my creative business to a new level.  But not only did she help me to improve my marketing and production, she also helped me to create a more sustainable lifestyle as a creative entrepreneur — not an easy balance to find!  I simply can’t say enough wonderful things about working with April!” –Adriana Willsie

“I just wanted to take a little time out of my day to send you a Big Thank you! I recently completed your Roadmap Workshop (which I loved). And one of my main “concerns” was my procrastination and my “fears”. I finally got off my behind and put my procrastination behind me (my fears are still lingering around) and I launched my Etsy store today. There are still a few hiccups that I need to work through but I DID IT! Thank you for an awesome course and Thank you for taking me out of my comfort zone.” – Shirley McAvoy, Stamping Elephants

“I am reading your ‘Marketing for Creatives’..can’t put it down, I KNOW this is just what I need, yes it is well worth the money I paid already.  I am not even finished reading but am all fired up to get my site and store fixed up so I can attract my ‘target’ market.” – Brenda Watts, Cattails Woodwork

“I highly recommend April Bowles-Olin’s RoadMap ecourse. For me, a lifelong procrastinator, I got the kick in the pants that I needed to get myself motivated, on track and productive. This was not hard core boot camp kind of stuff though, instead April has a way of teaching and providing you with information that is heart centered.  She’s real and tells you the truth. This course literally changed my life. I will never look back.” – Teresa Curtis, Risa Q Too

“I took your “How to Write Production Descriptions that Sell” e-course and it was AMAZING!! I’ve been slowly re-doing all of my descriptions, starting with my best selling favor bags. And now have done it with 2 other products and both times new ideas came out just from doing the exercises in the workbook. It makes you think about every little detail and puts you in the shoes of your ideal customer. LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! Many ecstatic thanks!” – Bridgette, Perideau Designs

“Sold 2 pieces immediately using your suggestions! TY.” –Lee Wolfe from One Clay Bead

“I love Blacksburg Belle, because it’s friendly and helpful. Human run with a side of tough love. Also, lots of videos.” –Danielle Spurge from The Merriweather Council

“I LOVE Blacksburg Belle, because you are encouraging yet you keep it real and you are always enthusiastic about helping us.” –Erin Giles from Elegant Girl

“One of the most inspiring entrepreneurial speakers I’ve heard in a long time. Incredibly knowledgeable and likable.” –Elizabeth Lewis

“Words can not express what your website has just done for me.” –Ashley Rector from Lovetosew.com

“I was so stinking inspired! Well, I mean, I AM so stinking inspired. I really needed it at that moment, too. Know the “6 Things to get done” technique that April was talking about? I did it yesterday and it was the most productive day that I’ve had, well, ever. And I sold FOUR things today (that’s a lot for me).” –Megan Van Sipe from Lilac Saloon
