Rick Goetz, of MusicThinkTank and MusicianCoaching, writes a truly inspired and informative article that I had to share with my fellow Wiz Kids! In the article, he talks about the misconception about what it truly takes to be successful (perpetuated by media like “Behind The Music.” In short, it takes grit (patience, persistence), solid business knowledge, marketing your personal brand, setting goals, building a community, and networking.
So Without Further ado here is a link Mr. Goetz’s article.
