| Christian Brim: Why no business owner should do their own taxes | 21 avr. 2023 | 00:34:11 | |
EP 115: Did you know that accounting is an important part of your business? Of course, you did! The problem is many of us are not fully equipped to handle those duties while also trying to be the very best artist we can be. This is where hiring an accountant can come into play, but that first step in approaching one can be intimidating or overwhelming for first-time business owners. After all, what do we say? What do we ask? Is my business valid enough? I only do this part-time! In this episode, I sit down with Christian Brim, who is a licensed CPA, himself, and also the CEO of an accounting firm that works hand-in-hand with creative entrepreneurs and small business owners. We talk about why it's so important to communicate fully with any accountant about your goals and what you want out of your business. This episode is brought to you by Bay Photo Lab.

| Stop sending attachments in your cold email pitches | 14 avr. 2023 | 00:09:38 | |
EP 114: Maybe this is a hot take, but I think attaching any sort of file in your very first cold email pitch to a new lead, is counterproductive. It could be a pitch deck or it could be photos you want to highlight, but attaching them without a relationship already in place may increase your chances of having your emails unopened, or even worse, unseen. In this episode, I advise embedding photos into your email as a more proactive way to have your work shown while also avoiding that dreaded Spam folder.

EP 109: Inflation is a real pain in the ass, but ultimately speaking, it has a relatively small impact when compared to another inflation that many of us are guilty of exercising; lifestyle inflation. While inflation may increase the price of milk and eggs by a few dollars, lifestyle inflation may cost us thousands.

| The thing about busy work is... | 17 févr. 2023 | 00:12:44 | |
EP 107: You know, the sneaky thing about getting caught up in busy work, is that it feels so productive because you are, in fact, tackling something important in your business. This task needs to get done. And the list never seems to end with busy work. If it's not catching up on emails, it's checking up on invoices or creating social content or any number of things that may not actually move the needle in our business. In this episode, I discuss how busy work disguises itself as a proactive habit, even though it likely shares more common traits with reactive practices.

EP 103: I am here at the Noobie Photographer's Conference in Chattanooga, Tennesee, picking the brains of professional photographers and business owners on what the best investment has been for them in their careers.

| What is the biggest waste of time, that startup creatives tend to over focus on? | 13 janv. 2023 | 00:11:43 | |
EP 102: We're out on location! I am wrapping up here at the Noobie Photographer's conference here in Chattanooga Tennesee, talking to successful business owners and creatives about art, life, and business. In the quiet moments, I decided to pull every speaker aside for a quick poll, asking them where in business they think startup creatives tend to waste the most time on. What is amazing is each entrepreneur has his/her own take on what efforts rank highest as a diminishing return, and hopefully these responses prompt all of us to ask ourselves, "what tasks are we constantly spending time on, that yield very little return?"

| You are not the best judge of your own work | 28 oct. 2022 | 00:10:20 | |
EP 93: While we creatives study and work on our craft with a great deal of passion, it does not make us impervious to the occasional cognitive bias. As the saying goes, we don't know what we don't know. And what we may not know, is what our clients, our leads, our marketing directors, or copy editors are truly looking for all the time. This makes us susceptible to judging our own work from a subjective lens, which may or may not align with those we want to work with. In this episode, I'll talk about why it's vital to have our work periodically assessed by objective and qualified parties that can help us find the right path.

| 3 Friendly reminders when playing the debt game | 16 sept. 2022 | 00:22:53 | |
EP 88: Consciously or unconsciously, we are all playing the game of debt in our day-to-day lives. We tell ourselves many narratives to justify our investments, big or small. "This is good debt", "Everyone uses it", and "I'll figure it out later" are common phrases thrown around regarding student loans and credit cards as we grow up. Many of these narratives are forced upon us by the major marketing machine that churns these belief systems, while other narratives have simply been enforced year after year by parents and schools. In this episode, I provide 3 friendly reminders about this game that we've all been indoctrinated to play; the game of debt. This episode is brought to you by Bay Photo Lab.

| Navigating the "free-work" dilemma | 19 août 2022 | 00:15:12 | |
EP 85: We've all been told that doing the free job is destructive to our career and the industry we're in. "Value yourself", "Know your worth", and "Set the bar high" are all narratives we've heard, and maybe even told ourselves, over the years. I, myself, have bounced back and forth between the idea of saying no and yes to free work, which I believe, many others have as well. In this episode, I'll talk about where I stand on this issue and what dabbling in free-work could ultimately mean for your next path. This episode is brought to you by Bay Photo Lab.
