1229: No BS Agency Mastery: Why Less Is More in Branding and Business with Founder Pia Silva

Wednesday, February 12, 2025

Turning creativity into a business is tough because it requires wearing two very different hats—artist and entrepreneur. It’s not just about making great work; it’s about finding the right audience, pricing confidently, and navigating the business side without losing the joy that started it all. The struggle often comes from balancing creative freedom with the need to market, sell, and stay financially stable. The ones who make it work aren’t always the most talented—they’re the ones who figure out how to make their passion and business goals work together.

Pia Silva is the founder of No BS Agency Mastery, a program that teaches one to two-person branding agencies how to scale to $30,000 monthly revenue without employees. She is also the author of the book "Badass Your Brand" and the host of the "No BS Agency" podcast. Today, Pia shares her expertise on helping creative professionals overcome the common challenges they face in running a successful business, such as undervaluing their work, struggling with client communication, and managing the administrative tasks that often suck the joy out of their passion.
