    Thank you so much for picking up this book. Just by holding it in your hands, I know you are more serious about your career than 99 percent of creatives I meet. You are ready to make more money as a creative, and you think buying this book is a good idea.

    Together, these are incredibly powerful tools, but even alone they can make you a better business person. Every lesson is packed with ways to build your career as a creative and start thinking about yourself as a business without feeling yucky inside.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted2 years ago
    I’ve broken my thoughts into five sections: Creating great content, the basics of selling, building an audience from scratch, making money at live events, and launching a successful product.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted2 years ago
    I am a writer by trade and a publisher by profession, and my experience skews toward comic books and novels. However, I’ve done my best to give examples from all creative fields.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted2 years ago
    What is a creative? A creative is anybody that makes things. This includes, but isn’t limited to: writers, painters, sculptors, craft people, comic book artists, singers, musicians, animators, and people that create things from scratch, with a strong emphasis on people who create products, whether that be books, art prints, jewelry, oven mitts, et al.

    That’s what this book is about—how to turn your art into a business and make a career as a creative.
  • Menna Abu Zahrahas quoted2 years ago
    Of course, this isn’t the case. The market is flooded with content. It’s impossible to stand out from the crowd without a bullhorn. The good news is that it’s also never been easier to build an audience and find a market for your work. The tools are already in your hands.

    I learned this a long time ago when I was stubborn and ignorant. I thought sales was gross and marketing was evil. I thought people should value my work for its merit alone. I thought people would magically find me...and that puppy dogs cleaned their own poop.

    Growing a brand and a business offers you the flexibility to turn down work and have enough money to take vacations with your family; it allows you to save for retirement and prevents you from working your fingers to the bone just to scrape by.
