Goals for 2024


Each year I complete goals for my art business. Here are my goals for 2024 focused on the fine art side of my art business. I have two parts of my art business: a side on art education and a side on my artist/fine art side. Read more to learn about my goals for 2024!  What are your goals for 2024?


Last year I was over ambitious when it came to my goals. I was pregnant and had my son in April 2023. I was more tired than I expected and wasn’t able to achieve a lot of the goals I wanted. We also bought our first home and moved in while I was nine months pregnant. So, 2023 was a very busy year to say the least! 



This year, my goals for 2024 I want to be more realistic in what I want to achieve now that I know how much work a baby and new house bring. 


Here are my goals for 2024! 

  • 2000 people on my email list 

  • Run ads to market business 

  • Take my business full time by making more money than I did as a teacher 

  • Offer cyanotype commissions

  • Have 2-5 exhibitions 

  • Receive 1-2 artist grants 

  • Growing my fine art Instagram to 1000 followers

  • Participate in 1-2 art markets 

  • Get my artwork or prints in a local shop

  • Take more photos from the series Patched and Tree Houses 

Sometimes it helps to dream a little. If I set goals too easy I might get bored and not put the effort in to make them happen. It can be hard to have the balance of goals being too hard or too simple. This year I want to work on focusing on implementing and getting things done. Even just a couple small things add up and make the difference over time.

Review of 2023


2023 was a busy year for us. Here is my review of 2023. Learn about my busy year and review of 2023 below! In this review of 2023 I will go over the goals I made for 2023 related to art goals, personal, business and family goals.


Review of 2023- My Thoughts

We had our baby in April 2023 and bought our first home around the same time. I moved into our home while my baby was seven weeks old. We now live a few hours away from family and I am understanding that things take a lot longer with a baby. My goals for 2023 were ambitious and I would say over ambitious. I know I may not have hit them all or some but it has helped me get clear of what I want. 



My Goals for 2023 with a Review of 2023 

Business Goals for 2023

I want to have 500 email subscribers on my email list.

I didn’t quite hit this goal but I will be working even harder on building my email list in 2024. 


I want to try running ads on social media to help me grow my list.

I didn’t get around to doing this but will in 2024. 


I want to create 150 products on my TPT store - Jackie Partridge Art. 

I created over 100 products in my TPT store and was happy with this given how busy 2023 was! 

I want to create 10 new designs on Society6 - Jackie Partridge.

I haven’t put a focus on Society6 and didn’t create any new designs.


Art Goals for 2023

I want to have 2-5 new art grants this year to fund my artwork. 

I didn’t have time to apply for grants this year. 



I want to have 5-10 art exhibitions this year. 

I had two exhibitions this year and was happy with that. 


I want to set up a new studio in my new house.

I got it set up. I still want to continue to organize it and do little things like make it look pretty. 


I want to make cyanotypes and paper this year. 

I didn’t have time to make cyanotypes this year since my son was born in the spring. 




Social Media Goals for 2023

I want to have over 1000 followers on Instagram on both of my accounts - @jackiepartridge_ and @jackiepartridgeart

I gained over 1000 followers on @jackiepartridgeart and I am still working on growing @jackiepartridge_ .



I want to have over 500 subscribers on YouTube - Jackie Partridge Art 

With my son being born and moving I didn’t put out new videos from July 2023-November 2023. I will be working a bit harder on YouTube in 2024. 

Revenue Goals for 2023

I want to have consistent 3-4 figure months of sales on TPT.

I have had more consistent 3 figure months on TPT this year. 


I want to do 2 art markets and I want to get my artwork into a local shop. 

I did not have time to do either of these. 





Personal Goals for 2023

I want to make healthy food choices. 

I want to go for a walk daily. 

I have done these and feel really good postpartum. 



Family Goals for 2023

I want to go on a hike monthly and enjoy time in nature with my family a couple of times a month. I want to visit with family or friends once a month. I want to plan a family vacation or a couple of small getaways. I want to have a date night once a month when the baby is old enough. 




It has been hard to go hiking or on vacations. We have been seeing family and friends regularly so that has been nice. 






Overall Review of 2023 

As you can see my review of 2023 is not impressive. Did I hit some goals for sure. Did I hit a lot? No. I am still proud of all the life accomplishments we have achieved like buying our first home, moving and having a baby. These are milestones that take a lot of time, energy and patience. I am happy for the mom and wife I am. I am looking forward to hitting my 2024 goals this year. 






Even if you don’t hit your goals - you are not a failure. Sometimes life has better things in store for you!
