Have you ever planned out something just so that it would all end up turning out completely different than what you expected? Let me tell you about how I failed my first five year business plan...It all started when I needed to write up a thesis for my Masters in Photography program. A side from presenting my photography work, I needed to answer this question:Where do you see yourself in five years?The answer to this question was quite daunting for many reasons. So because I needed to have something written down, I did just that, I wrote a list of things that I wanted to do the same way that I would write a grocery list. No plan, no thing. Attribute this lack of planning to part of my failure, however this actually led me to something even better.

Hello there fellow creative!Today’s episode was inspired by a recent conversation I had with a close friend of mine. She’s a very crafty person and has always been great at making things with her hands. Recently, she decided to make her hobby a business. Naturally, I was ecstatic and super excited to hear this! When she first told me, I immediately started talking to her about marketing and social media, and I probably got a bit carried away and might have made her feel a bit overwhelmed.Fast forward a few months and she’s gotten some business and she’s making profit which is great! As we were talking about products and marketing she told me she had gone to a local craft show to check out what people are doing and do some business research. She didn’t participate as a vendor, she only attended the event as a potential client. Then she says “It is so saturated. There were like several other people doing the same thing. How can I stand out?” This is really what got me thinking.How can YOU standout in a saturated market?Raise your hands if you’re like my friend and are wondering the same thing? So let’s think about ways you can stand out.
