The Graze Academy
By Sofia Dedola
Are you tired of working your 9-5 job? Have you always dreamt about creating your own schedule and not having a boss tell you what to do? Maybe you don’t have a degree or any direction with how or where to start.
When starting a business in this industry you need two things. One, an eye for styling, and two, a commitment to following through no matter what. TGA can teach you how to style and give you all the tools you need to start a business and switch your mindset, but if you don’t have the commitment for yourself how can you expect to commit to anything else?

What is BBB?
Why do I need it?
BBB is an online course that guides you with all the steps you need to take to make your business official and profitable. There is a right way and a wrong way and BBB is taking you down the right way. Founder, Sofia Dedola started her catering company with zero experience in business and without a college degree. Yet, within six months of starting she already booked big clients like, Equinox, West Elm, and Lauryn from The Skinny Confidential. The Graze Academy was created to be the mentor for everyone embarking on this journey. Starting a business can be tricky, but
BBB helps minimize the hick-ups and maximize your profits.
If you are making boards for a hobby, then why not capitalize on it? This is the season. This trend is only growing and becoming more and more popular. Don't worry, the more the market saturates, the better. This means more and more people are wanting the services that YOU OFFER. And trust me, there are enough events to go around.
modules
In these 6 modules, you will receive all the tools and guidance to learn how to start or expand your business. These are designed to be digestible yet filling. I want everyone who takes this course to know that all the mistakes and financial burdens I made along the way could have been AVOIDED if someone made a Blueprint like this... Now my lessons are a lesson for everyone. My business still thrived, but I could have saved time and so much money if I knew all of these.
BOARD TO BUSINESS BLUEPRINT IS MADE UP OF 6 MODULES: (32 MINS TOTAL + 54 MIN AUDIO FILE)
Module 1:Who What When Where and WHY?
You must get clear on what you want to be of service to. Once you have clarity on this, your dream business can start to become a reality.
Module 2: Prepping Details
There are some simple and not so simple things when it comes to prepping. It takes time and lots of organization. Be sure you are prepping the right way and are set up for success.
Module 3: Invoicing & Rates
Now that you know who your ideal client and you know all the prepping techniques it's time to dive into invoicing and rates. How much do you spend on your products? What should my rate be? We cover everything you need to know about money.
Module 4: Legal
Yes...Legal. Like any business, there are permits, licenses, and more. Be sure you cover your tracks before you go all official on us.
Module 5: Marketing tools
Can't make a profit if you don't have the right marketing tools. We talk about Instagram, website, logo, and more.
Module 6: Mindset shifts
It's scary starting a new business. Sometimes you don't want to step outside of your comfort zone. Maybe platters are all you've been doing and you don't feel like you deserve to charge $1500 for a grazing table, or that you aren't "capable" to do a 4-foot grazing table. (btw- that thought is bologna, you so are capable of making all the money and creating the longest grazer.)
