Hi there !

Welcome to issue #3 of the Creatorpreneurs Newsletter. (if you’ve missed past issues, take a look at them here).

Every week, Lisa and I will show you some awesome tools that’ll make your online life easier and show you some unique ways to grow your business… with graphics!

This week, I was asked by one of our awesome Laughingbird Creatorpreneurs if The Graphics Creator could ever import Photoshop files. (alas, as of now… no. But it’s not impossible one day ????).

Which brings me to our Tool Of The Week:

CREATORPRENEUR TOOL OF THE WEEK!

I needed a “Photoshop like” tool and found a really excellent solution: PHOTOPEA

Photopea is a FREE image editor that works similar to Photoshop and runs completely on your device, (just like Sketch or Photoshop does). It doesn’t upload any of your files to the internet. You can load Photopea.com, disconnect from the internet and keep using it completely offline. None of your files ever leaves your computer.

And! it opens Photoshop files

Photopea: advanced photo editor — www.photopea.com Photopea Online Photo Editor lets you edit photos, apply effects, filters, add text, crop or resize pictures. Do Online Photo Editing in your browser for free!

CREATORPRENEUR TIP OF THE WEEK

This week’s Creatorpreneur tip of the week sort of comes from Nike, just do it. ????

And I don’t just mean “just start it”. I mean stop overthinking, stop questioning whether you’re making the right call, and just do it.

New entrepreneurs can sometimes be well on their way with their business or their creations, only to have their thoughts literally get in the way.

But that only delays your success. Will you make mistakes? You bet. Will there be challenges? Sure! and you’ll need to jump high to get over them. But isn’t this what you signed up for?

Entrepreneurship is about going all in. It’s about taking big risks so you can live the life you want. The goal isn’t to win the award of perfection. The goal is to build a business that helps people solve a problem. And the sooner you can do that, the sooner you can make people’s lives better. That’s the impact your business can have on someone’s life. So the sooner you finish your project, the more people you can help.

See you next week!
