Warm-Up Strategies for Creative Business Owners

Selling shouldn’t feel like shouting into the void. A warm audience changes everything.

If you’re launching anything — a service, a course, a membership, whatever — warming up your audience is the piece most people skip… and the piece that actually moves the needle. Inside my private podcast, I take you behind the scenes of how I warm up my audience — the mindset, the storytelling, the messy in-between moments — and show you how to turn that into a launch that converts.

Your Monthly Warm-Up Lineup

Three episodes every month — each one designed to warm up your audience in a different way.

A mix of my own behind-the-scenes warm-up process, creative founder stories, and the Q&A sessions you wish you got on Instagram.

Chantal, Web Designer
"It comes off as a friend talking to you, on your couch having a glass of wine, it feels safe"

"I'm a podcast person, I listen as I work constantly. The Warm Up is the only one where I'm like DAMN maybe I should stop working and pull out a pen and paper and write this down. It's nice to hear others' stories and most are in my ecosystem so it's encouraging.

Holly, Ops Manager
"The podcast definitely made me view warming up my audience differently"

"And I just LOVE the fact that there isn't one way to do something – it's different for everyone and this makes me happy and less pressured!"

LORIN, DESIGNER
"Having Kels in my ears felt like getting a pep talk from a friend"

"She's one who somehow always knows exactly what I need to hear. The mix of relatable advice and actionable nuggets of wisdom made each episode something I could actually do something with."

Ramota, MISSIONARY
"The Warm Up simplifies what used to be the most intimidating part of launching"

"Taking my time in the warm up phase and really leaning into storytelling in my content helped position myself as a “modern day missionary” and increase my brand awareness. I had two people join All Stars during the warm up before even launching because they were so bought into what I do and wanted to be a part of it."

Haley, Designer
"It keeps the momentum going and keeps me in a constant state of improving."

"It's easy to digest and I've understood and implemented her tips without even realizing I'm doing it, Kelsey's teachings become second nature."

Aseel, Notion Designer
"Before, I didn't do marketing at all and didn't like being salesy."

"But with the podcast, I understood how I can give value to my audience and excite them for what's coming. I'm going through a warm up now and I really love it!"

Sneak Peek

Hey! I'm Kels...

Founder of Coming Up Roses and a self-proclaimed Squiggly Creative who believes your messy, in-progress self is your biggest asset.

I help creative entrepreneurs turn their skills into consistent sales by warming up their audience first... long before they hit “post,” “launch,” or “checkout.”

Before I was teaching this stuff, I was doing what you’re probably doing right now: posting, tweaking, spiraling, overthinking, hiding my process because I thought I needed to look “put together” to be taken seriously.

Spoiler: that got me nowhere.

When I finally started working in public — sharing the messy middle, letting people into the real process, and building trust along the way — everything shifted.

My audience got warmer, my offers got clearer, and sales got consistent.

And eventually… I shut down my creative studio, pivoted fully into education, and built a business around helping creatives like you launch in a way that actually feels doable (and dare I say… fun?).

When I’m not teaching warm-up strategy, you can find me at the beach with my sons, hosting creative events, or writing from some cozy corner with an iced coffee nearby.

If you’re squiggly, strategic, creative, tender, or tired of feeling like you’re “not doing enough”… you’re in the right place.

The Warm Up focuses specifically on the crucial period between discovery and purchase. While other podcasts give general marketing advice, we help you build a strategic system for turning cold audiences into ready-to-buy communities.

That's exactly why we made this a podcast! Listen while walking, working, or living your life. Each episode is designed to give you actionable strategies you can implement right away, no extra time needed.

Perfect timing! The warm-up period is exactly what you should focus on before you're ready to launch. Start building those connections now, so when you do launch, you'll have an engaged community ready to buy.

Size isn't everything - we've seen people with small, warm audiences outperform those with large, cold followings. The Warm Up helps you create genuine connections that convert, regardless of your current audience size.

If you're getting likes but not sales, have lurkers who never engage, or rely mainly on word-of-mouth referrals, your audience likely needs warming up. This podcast gives you a strategic approach to turn that around.

Our members are actively putting strategies into practice, starting with small steps that create real impact. From trying the "intrigue strategy" on Threads to simply speaking more confidently about their offers, they're seeing results. The podcast's bite-sized format makes it perfect for morning walks or quiet moments, turning learning time into implementation time.

While results vary, our members have seen success like filled waitlists, sold-out offers, and consistent inquiries. The key is implementing the strategies consistently and giving the warm-up process time to work.

The Warm Up is for creatives like you if…
