About Julie
Julie Eason is the founder of The Belly Dance Business Academy where she helps dancers build more fulfilling and profitable businesses.
Julie created the Belly Dance Business Academy because she was sick and tired of watching dancers struggle to make ends meet just because they didn’t know how to market themselves. A belly dancer herself since the mid -1980s, she’s been in the professional dance world as a performer, teacher, artistic director, producer, and costume designer for over 25 years. Now a full-time marketing consultant, she is on a one-woman mission to stamp out the words “Starving Artist” forever.
Over the years, Julie has helped dancers around the world build thriving studios, establish performing careers in competitive markets, create and sell unique programs that explore belly dance in deeper, more meaningful ways. And she has helped these women double, sometimes even quadruple, their dance incomes.
Most of all, Julie Eason has an unwavering, steadfast belief in you, and your ability to transform your dreams into reality. The Belly Dance Business Academy exists to provide the marketing training and unconditional support necessary to make that happen.
In her upcoming book, Crowdfunding For the Performing Arts, she helps dancers (as well as musicians, actors and performing companies) learn how to create successful crowd funding campaigns on Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and other platforms.
