Hello!
⭐️ I am Trisha Craig, and I am on a mission to end the Starving Artist Myth. ⭐️
No one in music school ever mentioned entrepreneurship. Ever. 🥹
Fortunately, I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit. 💪
Instead of an after-school job, I taught flute lessons in high school. 🎶
In college, I made money typing people’s papers to avoid a nightmare cafeteria job. 📇
I have managed my own teaching and performing career. I owned and operated a successful music school. I started a business teaching teen musicians how to use their training to get into college. And, I have taught other business owners how to do their own marketing. 🤓
But, it wasn’t until a young colleague came to me with questions about how to manage his career that I realized how much I had figured out on my own. 🥸
That’s also when I first understood that I had done something unusual. ⚡️
Through determination, trial and error, working with coaches, big failures, and huge wins, I had become a creative solo-entrepreneur. 😎
⭐️ I understand the key truth that creative people are never taught: that mastering your craft is only the beginning.
And, I understand that schools don’t teach entrepreneurial skills because the instructors have never had to live by them. 🥹
⭐️ Now I am on a mission to fill in that gap. To help soulful, creative people create the business of their dreams without sacrificing the passion for their art. ⭐️
It is the most exciting work I have ever done. And, it’s also the biggest honor. 🤩
Now, tell me about YOU!! 🎺
I put aside time every week to chat with Creative Ones who want to brainstorm ideas for growing their fan base and selling their work. 🤩
It's your turn! 🩷🩷🩷
