[S6E3] Profitable Business Models for Creatives

This week on episode 2 of the Creative Freedom Show, the podcast takes a deep-dive look at Katy and Shania Twain to show you how to carve out your own profitable niche in your industry. BOTH of them came from a musical world that was different than the one they ended up in. It required a little patience and courage to make the jump... and it made all the difference.

[S6E2] Is your niche even profitable? How to find the right niche as a creative entrepreneur

[S6E1] How to build a profitable business that's true to you

Are you ready, willing, and able to do that? Not everyone is. This week's episode explains.

President Eisenhower was right: plans are useless, but planning is everything. That said, you can't control the outcome, you can only influence it by what you do and what you choose not to do. Remember, too, that your goal isn't always THE goal, and if you want to achieve it, you need to be consistent. It isn't sexy, but it works. This episode explains more.

[S5EB5] Plans are useless, but planning is everything

This is bonus episode 4 in a series of lessons learned from 25 years as a creative entrepreneur. No one is coming to save you. You're a business owner, and you need to act like one. If you don't like the way the system works, the only way to change it is from the inside. In this episode, I'll take you behind the scenes in my biggest business failure and share examples from Apple, Denise Duffield-Thomas, and Leonie Dawson, to show you why you need to take control of your business and act like a business owner if you want it to grow - and how growing for growth's sake is only going to make you miserable.

[S5EB4] My biggest business failure - and how I turned it around

This is bonus episode 3 in a series of lessons learned from 25 years as a creative entrepreneur. Your business is NOT the Field of Dreams. If you built it, ya gotta market it or people ain't coming - or BUYING! At the core, marketing is sharing your message with an interested audience. But what's that message? And where do you find an interested audience? That's what we're looking at in this episode! You'll also hear about some real-world marketing examples and my "SIMPLE" framework for marketing and launching your offers.

[S5EB3] It's not magic, it's marketing!

I've been teaching this concept for decades now. I started sharing it when I was in direct sales, but it's no less true today for creative entrepreneurs. In a world where there are lots of people doing things similar to you, the truth is that YOU are the competitive advantage your business relies on most. As the face of your company, you were what your audience is buying into every time they make a buying decision. This week's bonus episode fills in the details and helps you get a handle on it even further.
