What The Strike Means For Entertainment Entrepreneurs

For Artists and Entertainment Pros, pursuing a career in the industry can be both exhilarating and daunting. As you know, the biz is notorious for its unpredictability, and recent union strikes have only amplified the challenges Artists face. In this ever-changing landscape, creating your own business can be a smart move to secure financial independence, artistic freedom, and long-term stability. 

Now, I am aware that “financial independence” and “long-term stability” has a “yuck-factor” to it. However, as I’ve gotten older and expanded my family, I can assure you those words mean a lot more to me now than ever before, which is exactly why I took the big leap and created my own businesses. 

Whether you want to build your own Etsy store, create a course-based business, or offer creative services, diversifying your income stream minimizes the instability that often comes with Entertainment careers. 

In the face of union strikes, Artists working under union contracts can face uncertain working conditions, delays in projects, or even loss of income. By establishing your own business, you are automatically less vulnerable to the impact of union strikes and labor disputes. This independence can offer a sense of security during WILD periods in the industry.

I’ve found such security and stability in creating my own businesses, and it is my mission to help other Entertainment Pros and Artists find the same. By embracing this path, you can take control of your career, showcase your creative potential, and secure a more stable and fulfilling future. Guaranteed.
