How Much is Your Creativity Worth?
At this point it doesn't even matter what you do. Whether you're a content writer, creator, videographer, photographer, sculptor, designer, musician, performer etc, there definitely was a time when you had to put a price on your work, right? And of course, no one wants to work for peanuts, correct?
I'm not saying it's ok to deal with this, but we've all been there. And there is definitely a way out.
It's all a combination of mindset, skills and the power to say no. We're al unique, our work is unique, our personalities are unique, and everything we create, well, it's mostly unique. We can't reinvent the wheel, but we can adapt it to our needs, right – or to our customers' needs.
And so it all begins!
Allow me to introduce myself
I'm Andreea and I'm an artist – and if you think that sounded like a Artists Anonymous introduction, you're partially right.
Some time ago I decided that the usual 9 to 5 wasn't for me, and I was completely right. And even though most of my plans were ruined by a certain virus, I saw the bright side. It was the time for me to learn. And so I did. I was lucky though, because I didn't start from square one. By 2021, I have built 5 websites, wrote over 500 articles, took thousands of photos and mastered SEO. How is everything going? Absolutely amazing.
I know we're all raised thinking that one person is good at one thing (career wise, at least), but I promise you, that's not true. You just need ambition, perseverance and marketing – like it or not, you need to learn to sell yourself or your work.
Everything takes time!
I know, I know. Same old story, but it's accurate. You need to take the time, work at your own pace, and build something for yourself. Future you will be very proud of everything you've done!
