Description
Every day we bring to our jobs unique talents and ideas that nobody else has. When we have the opportunity to put that creativity to good use, our work becomes more rewarding and our employers and the customers we serve benefit.
It is a myth that a creative career means a lifetime of poverty. Nearly 1.4 million Americans work in creative occupations. And while only a small number of those become famous household names, a vast majority maintain successful and rewarding creative careers.
This week on Find Your Dream Job, we’re talking all about creative careers. We’re joined by Cory Huff, an actor, writer, and expert on the business of being a creative professional. Cory’s website, TheAbundantArtist.com, provides resources for creative professionals looking to better market and sell their products and services. Cory shares tips on how to start and maintain a strong, independent, and financially sustainable creative career.
In this 32-minute episode you will learn:
Why a creative career doesn’t mean you’ll be a starving artist
Why "business" and "marketing" can't be dirty words for a creative professional
How to build a solid artistic career without being famous or “anointed”
The irreplaceable value of relationships for creative professionals
This week’s guest:

I really want to work for a specific company. I'm thinking about taking a lower level job to get my foot in the door, in hopes I’ll be able to move into the job I want. Is this a good idea?
