Ep 630. Have Impact

Utilize technology like CompanyCam to document all job site progress and details, creating a permanent reference for future needs, inquiries, or issues.

Be a 'shameless self-promoter' by actively seeking opportunities to network and share your work with potential clients or collaborators, as exemplified by Caleb inviting Velvet Rodeo to the podcast.

Understand your worth and value in your industry. Don't be afraid to say no to deals that don't align with your long-term goals or undervalue your work, even if it means foregoing immediate opportunities.

Actively build your brand and fan base (or client base) through grassroots efforts and word-of-mouth. Playing in various locations and taking diverse gigs can lead to new opportunities and broader recognition.

Embrace challenges as learning experiences. The difficulties of touring and performing in diverse environments helped Velvet Rodeo develop stamina and refine their craft.

Consider the long-term impact of your creative efforts. Documenting your journey, whether through video or other means, creates a valuable archive and a 'virtual visual diary' for reflection and future generations.

Leverage diverse platforms to promote your work. Beyond traditional methods, explore new media like TV shows, digital networks, and social media to reach a wider audience and enhance your business's visibility.
