So You Fancy Yourself a Creative; Now What?

Maybe you went to art school, maybe you didn’t. Maybe you just put in the hours and simply fell in love with your creative expression ... so naturally you’re thinking the next step should be landing your dream job, right?

Well, it’s not that easy. Becoming a breakout creative takes a lot more than having great work. It takes confidence, perseverance, and grit to make it through the messy in-between.

It’s true that a few of you may land a sick internship or job at [insert big name client here], but the fact is most of you will likely struggle to break into the competitive market because you haven’t found your place. This doesn’t mean you’ve failed or that you’re not talented enough, it simply means you’re a force in the making.

The Breakout Creative is a self-empowering guide and a much-needed reality check into the world of creative careers. It will help you sharpen your standout skills and give you the edge you need to share your creativity and passion with the world.   

This book challenges you to think outside of what you do and more about who you are. You may be the best, but your work doesn’t define you, your actions do. What story is your work telling about you? What values and standards do you live by?

How well do you communicate your goals with others? How do you talk about yourself and your work? Can people feel and see your passion and dedication when they talk to you? It’s the complete package around your work that makes you hirable, marketable, and memorable.   

This book helps you find what makes you unique, gives you the tools to shape your personal story, and makes you the marketable powerhouse creative you are in the highly competitive, yet extremely rewarding world of creative careers.
