Because we’ll be talking about your tattooing… And achieving your goals – together.
That means having the skills to do any tattoo you can imagine…
While building a brand that adds value to your work so you can charge more for your tattoos… Travel for your art and always be able to find clients… And make your own schedule with no overhead to answer to when you want to take a day off…
Or spend time with your family.
And one of the best and fastest ways to do that is to get an experienced tattoo artist to look at your work and help you determine your personal path into the industry based on your strengths.
With that personalized help, you can get past the “figuring it out” stage and break into the industry faster, easier, and without the disheartening and time-consuming setbacks and mistakes that most artists have to deal with…because you’ll have someone telling you exactly what to do.
And if you think about it – you don’t have any high performance individuals without a coach or mentor behind the scenes…
This structure is engrained in our society because it ensures success.
Because there is someone telling them exactly what to do, they don’t have to figure it out…
They can simply perform.
If they have to do both jobs and they try to figure it out and perform at the same time – something’s going to have to give…
And in most cases…
That either means a huge sacrifice of their time…
Or losing their passion entirely.
As a part of the Artist Accelerator Program, you have what you need to start tattooing at the professional level… And build a portfolio that gets you into a shop.
We aren’t breaking that promise. You can get into the industry with just the Artist Accelerator Program.
For a lot of new artists, that is enough – we’ve had thousands of students already do it.
Because coaching can get you further, faster… For people who want to reach that next level.
And that’s why for the first time ever, we’re offering personalized private coaching that’s designed to not only get your skills to the professional level…
But actually get you into the industry, working full time as an artist, and living your dream, being your own boss while doing what you love.
And it all starts when you book your free call for your FREE breakthrough session.
In this call we’ll…
During the 12-week private coaching system, we’ll work directly with you to implement a roadmap that gets you where you want to be by builds your tattooing career in 3 phases: drawing, tattooing, and marketing. This way, at the end of your 12 weeks, you’re making a sustainable income from tattooing, and you have the tools to continue advancing your career for years to come.
Students who go through the program will have the skills and knowledge they need to create incredible tattoos and draw in new customers with minimal effort. This means that they can build a business around themselves that allows for financial freedom and a rewarding creative career.
In this all-inclusive coaching, you will:
Our coaching students build their brand and unlock their artistic potential so they can steer their tattooing career instead of simply grasping at whatever opportunities pop up.
Coaching also helps you get past the #1 hurdle that causes most new artists to stumble: accountability. When you have mentors supporting you and a small group of dedicated artists excited about building their careers alongside one another, it becomes much easier to make time for your work and prioritize your future.
We only accept a limited number of artists for each session to make sure we’re giving each coaching student the time and attention they need to see the success they’ve invested in.
Get video feedback, weekly small-group coaching calls, and direct message access to Nathan and Brandon.
With mentors on opposite sides of the world, there is help constantly available no matter what time you’re practicing, which means you’re never left feeling stuck.
Inside the program, you’ll not only get the skills you need to tattoo full-time but you’ll also build a brand that increases your earning potential and opens new doors in your career.

The Artist Accelerator Program has everything you need for a primarily self-guided journey into the tattoo industry. You receive all the information you’d get in a traditional apprenticeship and it’s up to you to work through the course at your own pace. The Facebook group functions as a community that provides support and access to professional tattoo artists when you need assistance. We’ve had thousands of students find success this way.
Private Coaching offers a more personalized experience and additional accountability. Because you will be in closer communication with us and you’ll be following a schedule, our coaching program is considered to be our “mentor-led” path.
In addition to focusing on building your art and tattooing skills, private coaching comes with personalized advice on marketing, building your brand, and acquiring clients as part of a focused, 12-week experience. Instead of being prepared to enter the tattoo industry at the end of the program (like you are with the Artist Accelerator), after private coaching you will already be an active participant in the industry and making money as a professional tattoo artist.
In short, many of our private coaching students are in the process of transitioning to tattooing full-time by the end of their 12 weeks, whereas Artist Accelerator graduates are prepared to take their first steps into the professional sphere.
Ideally, coaching students have already spent time in the Artist Accelerator Program to build a base knowledge and begin developing their skills, and they are 100% certain that they want tattooing to become their fulltime career.
Our private coaching program is meant to be intensive so that it gets you to your goals extremely quickly.
That being said, you will have several drawing and tattoo drill assignments, alongside a daily to-do list to build your social media community (your client list). We recommend setting aside three hours a day for the duration of the program.
All Tattooing 101 programs are meant to be flexible to allow students to maintain their income while learning to tattoo, and this includes private coaching.
All the assignments can be done on your own time and coaching calls will be based on your schedule.
Many of our students with full-time responsibilities have found that getting up and tattooing before work, as well as drawing in the evenings for those 12 weeks allows them to get through their assignments without too much change to their normal schedule.
All the software we show you in private coaching to set up bookings, payments, and more is all very simple to use, and you will get step-by-step tutorials showing you how to set it all up.
Our goal is to make sure you stay organized, get paid properly as a tattoo artist, and feel confident in your ability to conduct business – but your primary role is still artist. You do not need extensive business knowledge, and many of the systems we show you – once set up – will run automatically without you having to do anything else.
Yes! While the Artist Accelerator Program is comprehensive, inside private coaching we’ll push you creatively and help you develop a unique style that you can charge higher prices for and help you tune up your tattooing so your work is as efficient and clean as possible.
Additionally, you’ll be getting the knowledge you need to turn your passion for tattooing into a profitable business by building your brand. This will take most of the admin work off your plate, give you more free time as an artist, and help you stay booked out so you never have to chase clients.
Life happens, and there are times when students know they have to wait for private coaching (new baby, a cross-country move, etc.), and we want to make sure that you have the time you need available to get a return on your investment into coaching.
However, because we want to make sure our coaching students get the attention they need, there is a limited number of spots, which are expected to fill up quickly (which will lead to a waiting list). This is why we recommend students join private coaching when they know that tattooing is what they want to do for a living so they can get in before those spots fill up.
As a side note: it’s never a “good” time to start a business or build your brand. That’s why so many tattoo artists never reach their full earning potential, start their dream studio, or get booked out months in advance.
Many of our students already have art and tattooing supplies, which means they only need the money for a website and landing page. These assets are not expensive (approximately $30/month), and most of our students make that money back 10x over after a few weeks in the program.
That said, you’ll be receiving $1K worth of design work for free when you join private coaching, since all your marketing materials are made for you.
At the beginning of your time in private coaching, we will set out goals that we can guarantee you will reach if you do the work.
This is an intensive program, and if you are unable or unwilling to put in the time and effort, then we can’t guarantee results.
However, if you are willing to do the work, then we guarantee you’ll reach the parameters we’ve agreed on. If we do not achieve the goals that we agree upon prior to the coaching starting then we will issue a 150% refund.
Before you are onboarded as a new artist, we like to have a preliminary call to make sure private coaching will work for you. This is a 100% free call simply to make sure it’s a good fit for your journey.
