The Artist As An Entrepeneur And Vice Versa
"In their own way, all artists are entrepreneurs, and all entrepreneurs are artists.
Though their tools and products may differ, both entrepreneurs and artists are in the same game– the making and selling of work that is personally and emotionally important to them.
Artist. Entrepreneur. They’re just words.
What’s far more interesting is not what we create, but how we create it, WHY we create it."
– Hugh McLeod, Gaping Void
This world has too many entrepreneurs making a living as artists and not enough artists making a living as entrepreneurs.
^lol good point.
But their is definitely a parallel between start-ups & indie labels.
“Music Business”…which one of these two words confuse you?
Are you making money to make music or are you making music to make money?
Great point. The key is finding a way to use your blooming creativity in the business world, whether you are signed or not.
Funny cartoon too!
