SPI 209: The Power of Community—How Noah Bradley Made Art Camp

It’s my pleasure to introduce you to Noah Bradley IV. Not only is Noah an incredible visual artist (Magic: The Gathering, anyone?), but he’s also the founder of an incredible community and online school called Art Camp.

Before founding Art Camp, Noah was frustrated by the options available to fellow artists who wanted a quality education. Art school isn’t cheap, and many artists take on enormous debt in order to get the training they need. Noah saw a way to help: he’d offer up his years of professional experience in an online course, using a series of videos to teach key skills to fellow artists.

Today, Art Camp isn’t just a profitable passive income stream for Noah—it’s a thriving community of artists who support and learn from each other online. Noah’s here with me to share how that community grew, plus the tools he uses to produce and maintain his course material.

He’ll also open up about the early days of his business, how he validated his idea before launching, and the workflow mistakes he learned from along the way. It’s an inspiring, honest conversation that every aspiring business owner needs to hear!

Thanks for Listening!
