The Empowered Creatives

Using LinkedIn as a Creator (feat. Volta Voloshin-Smith)

Listen Later

LinkedIn has for a long time felt like the go to place for bankers and lawyers... but not so much for creatives. But Volta Voloshin-Smith, Dallas-based watercolor artist and author of Watercolor Snacks, is here to tell us otherwise.

Join Volta and I this week as we discuss:

  • How the internet and social media has given so many artists new opportunities today
  • Why using LinkedIn as a creator could be beneficial to your business as the market isn't saturated
  • How her class on Skillshare ended up leading to an incredible book deal
  • Why scheduling resets and days off in your week is important to avoid burnout

    • Your One Thing this Week

    Head over to LinkedIn and follow 3 people who have similar interests as you. It doesn’t have to be directly related to your work or craft. You can type in hashtags in the search-bar to look for key words and find other people who are posting about that topic.
