let's do this

Hi, I’m Coco Peri! 

I’m a stop-motion artist who created a career out of my passion for magic. I never planned to leave the 9-5 job life and always envisioned myself working at a big company with a kick-ass salary. 

But when I decided to *try* going full-time freelance for just 6 months to see what would happen? The career I never thought was possible came to fruition.

Within one year, I was running my own stop-motion business that had me doing what I love full-time— and the craziest part? I doubled my previous salary in the first year and broke the ceilings of what I ever thought to be possible.

It wasn’t easy— I struggled with confidence, not knowing who to ask for help, how much to charge, and was unsure of how to pitch my work.

I built this course to be what I WISH I had when I first started, jam-packed with all of the magic and strategy I’ve used to create a thriving business. 

I’m ready to walk you through it, step-by-step so that you too can build YOUR dream career.

To wrap it up, we’ll talk about how to get booked out and thrive as an artist so you can create a career that lasts a lifetime. 

You’ll end up ready to dive into a promising business and I’ll be there for you as a mentor.

Plus, your work will be so attractive, that even I am prepared to pass jobs your way and share the love in this highly demanded line of work.

Now that you know what you charge, it’s time to learn how to ace a client call, deliver a concept deck, make a contract and get paid. 

I’ll prepare you for your client calls and give you exact questions to ask as the expert. You’ll end your calls with full confidence that brands want to work with YOU and respect and value your creative process.

You’ll then learn how to create a professional concept deck that pitches winning ideas without wasting time and money.

You'll also get my customizable contract template that will ensure you get paid on time, don’t get dragged through multiple rounds of edits, and avoid common mishaps.

negotiate like a pro and get paid

Feeling anxious anytime a brand asks for your pricing? This is the chapter we’ve all been waiting for… where you’ll learn to FINALLY know how much to charge for your work. 

I’ll walk you through the exact math to figure out your personal rate that will give you the lifestyle you truly desire without feeling imposter syndrome.

Lastly, say goodbye to stressful estimates and uncertainty when it comes to pricing out jobs. I’ll show you the inner workings of my custom pricing system and provide you with your own spreadsheet ready to customize for daily use.

By this point, you’ll be ready to CONFIDENTLY pitch to brands

We’ll create your unique media kit and I’ll teach you step-by-step how to write winning pitch emails that actually get responses and turn into jobs.

With a background in marketing & advertising, I’m giving you my cheat sheet with must-know industry terms and lingo that will position you for success with each unique brand you work with.

Plus, I'm sharing my personal DM templates that you can customize to reach out to any brand on Instagram.

No more wondering what the heck to post on Instagram! By the end of this chapter you’ll have revamped your account in a way that shows cohesiveness and credibility.

what past students are saying about the course...

Emilia learned how to pitch and market herself as a freelance stop-motion artist in Brand Magic— and has since built a stop-motion studio called Pairem with her biz partner in Germany!

EMILIA FROM
PAIREM

Ross, a creative based in Dominican Republic, struggled with the business side of things like pricing, contracts and emails. Since taking Brand Magic, her income is now DOUBLE what it used to be and she has felt an immense shift in her confidence day-to-day!

Emily took Brand Magic and completely pivoted her career path to become a full-time, booked out stop-motion artist in California!

EMILY from
HUDDL STUDIO

"I am absolutely loving the Brand Magic course! The pace of the course is great and makes becoming a full-time freelancer seem approachable and possible!"

- Maria Lattanzio, Brand Magic student

"As someone who was ready to dive into her business but didn’t know where to start and lacked some fundamental knowledge like pitching to clients and pricing, this class was a lifesaver!! It also gave me the confidence to keep following my dream and make the jump into freelancing!"

- emilia puentes, Brand Magic student

"This course is just fantastic. Full of great tips that have helped me extremely on the way to my dream. Through the course I have avoided many mistakes that I would have otherwise surely made. My favorite part: Chapter 6 - Finally know how much to charge. It probably would have taken me years to gather this knowledge myself."

- Jens Nühlen, Brand Magic student

"It's say it's just the right length, not too long that you can't find the time (I have two toddlers and a full time job) but it's all the relevant bits you're looking for when starting out or developing your creative career. It's especially helpful for stop motion artists, but anyone who needs to win more work in a creative career will find this valuable."

- Marisa Crimlis-Brown, Brand Magic student

"I am a graphic designer that runs a stationery business - so I entered this course with a bit of a different objective than I think most. I was looking for another way to market my business and be creative at the same time. I really enjoyed Chapters 1-3 -- building the mood board and coming up with ideas for brands was such a good assignment for not just stop motion, but also my graphic design business. This course was the creative outlet I didn't know I needed and I have loved every moment of it!"

- steph krahn, Brand Magic student

"The course was worth it and can be paid off by taking on one job. The course comes with a Contract to help you get started and this was a big win!"

- Shannen Siramarco, Brand Magic student

"Coco's Brand Magic course has been a game changer!! I just started my freelance journey right before I started the course and I really needed the guidance and support I got from Coco's lessons. It really is the best investment I've made in my career. If you're looking to further your career and gain confidence in pricing and pitching yourself to brands, among many other things, then this course is for you!!"

- Carlie Smale, Brand Magic student

"The way I looked at it is 'can I make back the money for this class with the info I learned in this course?". And the answer is yes, you easily can."

- Kim Kovacik, Brand Magic student

"This course is perfect for someone who really wants to take things to the next level and get the support they need to start their business. Especially if they have no experience and need the resources to get started. (LOVED the templates that we can edit and keep as our own!)"

- emilia puentes, Brand Magic student

"This course is gold! Coco takes the participants by the hand and guides them step by step through the transition to a professional and confident artist and entrepreneur. The course was the best investment ever! Take it! It is not only for stop motion artists, but for everyone who wants to work with brands."

- Maria Schöpe, Brand Magic student

"Thank you Colette for this course ! It helped me a lot with administrative tasks (like contract or emails pitch for example). I'm French, so your templates will help me a lot cause I wanted to reach international companies, but I was blocked with language. And liked the concept deck and the media kit templates too!"

- Mannaïg Fouillen, Brand Magic student

"Truthfully I was a bit apprehensive before I bought in because I've been working as a freelancer for almost 2 years now, but this was just what I needed. It has the nitty gritty details that I've always wondered about/needed to hear."

- Kim Kovacik, Brand Magic student

"What a terrific course! I really enjoyed Coco's positivity and the tips and guidance were all really helpful. I certainly appreciated the insights into her actual contracts, emails, and other resources she's used with clients. The downloadable materials were all super useful (and practical too!)."

- Marisa Crimlis-Brown, Brand Magic student

"I totally understand being worried about making an investment in yourself before you are making money as a freelancer, I was in the same boat but without this course and the support I may never have gained the confidence to charge my worth as a creative and get to a place where I'm actually helping to support my family financially!"

- Carlie Smale, Brand Magic student

"This course is truly game-changing to me and the one missing part of my work life as a freelance creator! I can't thank you enough, Coco! I'm so blessed to have finally found such an amazing mentor!"

- Mina Manafi, Brand Magic student

"This was a great course. My favorite aspect was the guidance surrounding marketing. Creating a list of brands, finding the contact info, designing the media kit and the pitch deck. Very helpful for where I'm at in my career."

- Christine Siracusa, Brand Magic student

"The information she provided is raw, real, and much needed. Sharing information I think is a sign of a true artist and educator and I am grateful that I had the chance of learning from her and of course if and when she has any more courses I will be the first to sign up."

- Kanchana Mirpuri, Brand Magic student
