À propos de cet audio

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS AND WORK FOR YOURSELF

"The Artist's Way for the 21st century!

Whether you want to quit your 9-5 job to be self-employed or you want to streamline your career to be more efficient, IT'S A LIVING is for you!

According to this year's most comprehensive study, there are over 57 million freelancers in the US alone and growing. The largest segment of that freelance community is made up of artists and creative professionals such as designers, writers, filmmakers, etc. The appeal to become self-employed is global. Statistically, freelancers make more money per hour than traditional employees. More and more each year, Millennial and Generation Z women and men are choosing freelancing instead of traditional employment. It's a great way to have a flexible lifestyle and be your own boss. Schools don't teach what you learn in the field and it's intimidating to embark into uncharted territory. That's why this self-help guide is extremely beneficial! Cristian has been a full-time artist for over 17 years, working in Canada and the US, and owned an art school in the process. He wrote It's a Living to help creative people make a happy and successful living on their own terms!

With a focus on developing a diverse set of skills to be able to survive and thrive as a freelancer, Cristian also encourages you to adopt a healthy diet and exercise regiment, as well as a work schedule that's designed for maximum productivity. The book also provides sales techniques for winning online commissions on apps like Upwork and Fiverr and strategies for negotiating contracts with clients. The “online” chapter is the most extensive, providing templates for bidding on projects and addressing other aspects of working online, like escrow, disputes, arbitration, outsourcing, and more. Soft skills, such as professional etiquette and choosing the right meeting locations, are prioritized as much as hard skills like artistic excellence and always over-delivering (on both). Self-marketing and branding are also explored, as well as resources for creating residual income on print-on-demand platforms and through online courses. What's more, Cristian dives deep into what makes us artists and why it's important to be true to yourself in the pursuit of your destiny. Stylistically, it's important to note that It's a Living tells a story in a very literate way. It analyses even why we're artists, by exposing Cristian's unique and tumultuous journey. This book is for everyone that aspires to become the complete package -a great artist, a reliable professional, a smart business person, a good provider, and a valuable and friendly member of our community.

It's a Living is truly a great listen for freelance artists and creative professionals!
