Stop Hiding, Start Selling: With Hayden Burgess

I love delving into marketing, so this was a really interesting chat and I came away from it feeling inspired and ready to market myself!

Key Takeaways:

Having good business acumen is crucial for creatives, sometimes even more so than just being good at their craft. Many creatives are resistant to marketing themselves, but it’s a necessary skill for business growth. Consistent effort and showing up are key to building a successful business.
