ABOUT

How To Be Social is a nonprofit art business community dedicated to helping creative entrepreneurs get paid for doing what they love. It's about time your hobby paid you back. We do this through events, online education, artist bookings, and funding opportunities.

 

Our Story

​

Founded in 2017 as a small blog encouraging people to live to their fullest potential, How To Be Social quickly grew into in‑person events—because inspiration without action is hypocrisy. We evolved into a booking agency and digital marketing studio before taking a short sabbatical while operating minimal events in the background.

​

We officially reunited as a company in 2023 and have been rebuilding our community through Instagram group chats, our website, and our long‑term Social Future vision.

Our values mirror the fruits of the spirit: honesty, justice, truth, transparency, kindness, and above all, love. What we are building is not just a national mission—it is an international one.

​

"As long as I’m living, this organization will live—whether it’s just me or a team of forty. We begin in Texas, expand across the United States, and ultimately grow worldwide. My background in venture capital, digital creation, community building, and storytelling has uniquely prepared me to see this mission through. If Edison could create the lightbulb, then our founder can teach people how to stay social."
