You're an operations manager. An accountant and bookkeeper. Marketing manager. Quality control and safety. Purchasing. Content Creation. Tech support. Webmaster. You're a customer service queen (king!). You're a business owner. Heck, you're a freaking C.E.O.
Wearing all those "business hats" can be exhausting, especially when those roles feel uncomfortable. After all, what kind of business / marketing training did we get when we went to school or university?
Probably not a lot. Or more likely: None at all. My degrees included none. Zero. Zip. Nada.
(This is something that we NEED to change in our field!!! </end soapbox>)
You’ve got mad teaching skills -- your services and products in place and you’ve hung up a sign to let people know you’re there... BUT those things alone aren't enough to make a successful studio or online music business. You need more support than a teaching forum.
