How to increase your business networking relationships?

Just think if the head of McDonald's didn't do business with Coca-Cola you would just have a burger and some fries. Nike needed Jordan to increase their brand awareness in the urban market .Both transitioned to billions of dollars in earned revenue. These are significant examples of the importance of business to business cross marketing . In music this is done by having features that allows two different fan bases to come together to support one project. Thus proving that the industry views your art work as just business. I encourage business to business networking . Some people are hesitant to engage in business to business activity this makes their business suffer because the lack of being open mined only closes your doors. I feel networking with business professionals is the fastest way to grow your small business. If you have any questions or topics you would like me to discuss please feel free to post in comments sections

What Makes A Great Artist ?
google-site-verification: googlea01fb84285b9775a.html
I'm a firm believer that to truly be a great artist something must make you standout in a world where plenty of music sounds the same . I think the general public would agree that we find it intriguing when a artist has some sort of mysteriousness about them. It draws your audience closer when it takes time for them to figure you out . Take Lady Gaga for example she sold millions of records because of her ability to bring something new to the game . Her eccentric style of dressing and bold lyrics change the platform of music . I'm not saying to go out and be something your not but if your like every other artist then you will never be successful musically. There are however one hit wonders that have a hit but don't last in the industry . To truly posses greatest it takes longevity also constant quality material . Don't think for one minute these artist are successful by chance it takes a strong dedicated staff to handle the behind the scenes business in order to have them focus on the music . I think a great artist can relate to different demographics based on the feel of the music . Don't take for granted the power of interviews because you can relate to an artist based on their interview . Some artist have great interview skills an capture the audience . This can affect their sales and followers dramatically . Make sure the chemistry is good with the people you work with because this can be a deciding factor in your quest for greatest . Remember always to do what you love and love what you do?

google-site-verification: googlea01fb84285b9775a.html
Before you even think about going to college make sure you maintain good grades . If you're a male between the ages of 18-26 be sure to REGISTER WITH SELECTIVE SERVICES . This is vital in obtaining federal aid from stafford loans to pell grants . I was uninformed when I was in high school so I dont want the youth to make the same mistakes . In retrospect, after reviewing both- it depends soley on what you plan on doing with your degree upon completion of school also how much you're willing to spend . Some of these Art schools are 100,000 dollars . They do offer indepth learning curriculum with hands-on training that will prepare you for work upon completion of the course material. However, community colleges can offer several general education classes and creative classes as well for a fraction of the cost .If you plan on becoming a producer, film maker , graphic designer , web design or interactive media . The Art Institute is a sound choice with campuses all over the country if you plan on relocating. The curriculum is accelerated so allocate enough time for your studies because this is a three year intense bachelor program. Some community colleges offer media arts and sound recording classes as well . They tend to offer more flexiblity and lower cost per credit making them more affordable. Community colleges are bigger institutions so sometimes its harder to get the attention you deserve. Education and skill training is important in achieving success don't limit yourself or say you're too old because your brain is a sponge that never stops absorbing . Please feel free to share your views those of you that went to school and those that didnt ?
