Woohoo! Congratulations on joining one of the most rewarding and fun industries on the planet!
While ceramics have been around for thousands of years, ‘contemporary' studios have evolved into a popular destination in recent decades. Painting pottery is now an entertainment option for many families - just like going to the movies or bowling - except that painters get to leave with a special keepsake.
Your customers will love coming into your studio - all your worries will fall away when you see their happy smiles. Our team exists to help you succeed. By equipping you with the best products and services in the industry, we can help to simplify this entire process.
Why should I choose BI? We've been in your shoes. Our team of seasoned professionals know firsthand what it takes to open and manage a successful studio. We're here to guide you, answer questions, and be a support during the first year and beyond. In fact, every member of our new studio training team has either owned a studio, or worked in one themselves! Visit the Meet the Team tab to learn more.
Your studio is more than just a number to us; we want to know you and grow with you. It's this same approach that allows us to maintain such fantastic relationships with our customers. In fact, our customers have voted us the top supplier in the industry, five years in a row.
Here's how we can help you get started. Whether you peruse our Resources tab, sign up for an upcoming class or simply give us a call, there's no limit to what BI can help you accomplish in your first year and beyond.
