Business for Artists
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I thought I'd drop it here in case anyone's interested... I'm collecting funding right now on IndieGoGo to publish a book on business for artists called "Business for the Right-Brained." Here's the table of contents:
1. Introduction
2. Many Roles
3. Products
4. Know Thyself (and Have a Plan)
5. The Day Job
6. Metrics, Part 1: Tracking
7. Metrics, Part 2: Trending
8. What I Wish Someone Had Told Me When I Graduated College
9. Enlisting the Aid of Your Inner Customer
10. Time Management
11. Unslimy Marketing
12. Pricing (or, the 99 Cent E-Book)
13. Communication
14. Brand
15. Afterword
It's illustrated by cartoon jaguars, and written humorously, based of columns I've done on LJ on all these topics. It's specifically targeted at creative types: artists, writers, crafters, musiciians, etc.
If you're interested in the book, you can get copies of it (e-versions or print) as backing prizes. We're on Day 3 of the 40-day funding period and we're already over 40% toward our goal. Come check it out if you're interested. :)
