As a service-based professional, figuring out how to draft a contract, much less make a contract stronger and clearer can be a real challenge!
Sometimes, it’s necessary to bring a lawyer into the mix, and while having a lawyer on your Power Team™ is a great resource, you’d be surprised at how simple tweaks to what you currently have (or want to have in the future) can help avoid disputes with clients!
This Interactive Form and Guide will walk you through 12 categories of clauses you may not realize you need to think about, and it will help you decide whether you need to change the language in your current contract or add it to your contract – now or later! I’ll ask you some questions, you’ll answer them with your intuitive, instinctive gut! This will be especially helpful if you’ve downloaded a template off the web, or if a friend gave you theirs as a starter doc!

This Interactive Contracts Guide is perfect for you if:
- You’re a service-based professional or direct service provider, struggling with writing a new contract or wanting to improve the one you’ve got (especially if you wrote the contract yourself or just used a template off the internet).
- You’ve been frustrated with clients, struggling to get into words what you want before it goes downhill, which has made the idea of writing a new contract feel overwhelming and nearly impossible.
- You’ve been struggling with setting clear expectations with your clients and just getting more annoyed, seeing no results.
- You’ve been trying to set everything up clearly with clients when you start the work, but then clients come around with some aggravating request that you don’t want to do (or worse, you don’t like the client to begin with 🤣)!
With this Guide, you’ll:
- Learn about some of the problems I’ve seen over the years that tend to get clients into trouble
- Consider the foundations you need for a strong contract
- Understand some of the super easy tweaks you can make right now that can lead to more clarity
- Decide the working relationship you want to have with clients and understand exactly how that can translate into building a great contract!
And, even though you’re not hiring me as an attorney or coach when you sign up or fill out this form, what you are getting is an education – an edge – and a creative way to figure out if your contract might actually be HURTING you, not helping you!

Hi, I’m Sheila!
I started CreativesEd® because I love working with service-based pros and helping them build the life and the business they want and deserve. My whole life, people have first come to me with problems — legal, personal, professional — but they stay for the coaching. I want you to experience that, too.
I’m an attorney, social worker, educator, coach, and consultant. I’m also a mean baker and an intentional gratitude girl. I’ve been supporting, advocating for, teaching, representing, and coaching creatives, lawyers, and a host of service-based pros of all kinds for over 25 years. 😍
From yogis, healers, artisans, jewelers, artists, bookkeepers, designers, and stylists, to aestheticians, illustrators, web developers, and other artistically-minded and creative professionals like lawyers and coaches, you name the profession, and I’ve probably worked with them.
In all these years, what I’ve found is that the people I’ve worked with all wanted the same thing — a successful, thriving business — but they were afraid. That’s why CreativesEd® exists – to help get you AWAY from fear and IN TOUCH with the real reason you went into business: YOU.
I can’t wait to help you, meet you, educate you, support you, coach you, advocate for you and be your cheerleader. Let’s do this! Let’s get creative!
