Are you ready to be a powerhouse self-managed artist and leverage your career to the next frontier of success?
Invest in yourself, your art, and MOST IMPORTANTLY your career
How much would your creativity benefit if you understood the business and industry side of your career? How many more people could connect to your art if you knew all the tools and systems? How much more could you create if you knew how to draw in more income?
The artist's path can be quite polarising
On one hand, it’s extremely fulfilling as you allow yourself to be indulgent, whimsical, and chaotic as you create incredible bodies of work and perform that for others.
On the other hand, it's painfully depleting as you try to figure out how to get your art to reach wider audiences, make you money, and find success in the world.
I see the polarity spelled out in these two titles:
It’s called the “music business”
Or the “performance arts industry”
To be successful in this field, one must be more than creative, one must also understand the business and the industry.
Once you learn the backend of the industry and apply your creativity to the business side, you will have the key to a successful career as an artist.
I know this because I worked in the music industry for 7 years. Now I am ready to pass on this wealth of experience and knowledge to teach you how to take your career to the next frontier of success.
