    Should your prices be public?

    MARKETING QUESTION 
    Really great question, and there are already really great answers on here! I too am working on making pricing transparent... yet customized yet quote-based yet frictionless for my business and was wondering the same thing (and it's not quite a straightforward answer, lol). For my industry...

    100+ Music Business Ideas

    IDEA 
    That's definitely true. But, it hasn't always been so clear what is/is not fair use... When it comes to directly copy/pasting a song for a video, for example, it's been clear that it's not allowed, monetized or not. But when it comes to anything from creating covers of music to sampling, it's...

    100+ Music Business Ideas

    IDEA 
    SO true - it's an option! But, it's really challenging nowadays - I used to have a cover channel and got thousands of views and even some Adsense money and now... YT Copyright strikes :/ I also wanted to come up with my own music method book using pop/contemporary songs but... sigh... copyright...

    100+ Music Business Ideas

    IDEA 
    Absolutely! I have already developed/given out some free teaching resources that I created on a large Facebook group, and those were a big hit with many orchestra students and their teachers. I heard from several teachers that my resources saved the day/week in terms of lesson planning, and...

    100+ Music Business Ideas

    IDEA 
    Excellent list! And really cool timing, actually, these past few days, I've been doing so much research and brainstorming to develop ideas for making Fastlane-style income as a musician/teacher. I keep wondering if I need to completely veer off of music and head towards an unrelated or...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I just finished reading the book and enjoyed it so much! The timing could not have been better for me. I am in a position in which I can quit teaching public schools, and begin a part time/full time (somewhere in between) self-employed business teaching private lessons, while also beginning my...

    My 20,000 Word Day #20000wordchallenge

    MINDSET 
    This sounds like a crazy but rewarding challenge. It's quite impressive that you managed to pull it off, with flair! Heck, I am about to plan a day this week to actually try it myself. I am freelancing at the moment, and my current project is to write a book totaling 30k words on a subject that...

    What has been GOOD about quarantine/corona for you?

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Especially nowadays. I've started thinking long term, with the shut downs and potential second waves, how it may affect the public schools with teachers scrambling to assemble more learning resources/prepackaged lessons ready to go, applicable to their subject matter, as well as being accessible...

    What has been GOOD about quarantine/corona for you?

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    ... you're totally right, Andy. I've been teaching music lessons online for almost a year at this point with great success and long term subscribers, and it is true that I've been getting more new students in the past month than normal that have booked lessons more months to come... you're...

    What has been GOOD about quarantine/corona for you?

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Well, how about realizing that through entrepreneurship, there is a way out of a traditional, restrictive job, the opportunity to be rewarded financially/emotionally for helping people, and then being able to give back tremendously later in life, just because you can? I would not have come...

    Lex DeVille's - Advanced Freelance Udemy Courses!

    MARKETPLACE 
    Ok, the course is officially magic, I've made $70 on Upwork in less than a week... it's not a lot, but it's better than nothing. xD Getting out of the money for time formula is going to take a lot more reflection, though. It's not easy.

    Anyone learning something useful in quarantine?

    HOT! 
    Millionaire Fastlane! Seriously though, the action inspired by that book is opening up my mind to learn so much more than I would have ever thought to, and my freelance game already stepping up. And to think I found it by chance. I reread the Miracle Morning book and I saw MJ's review in the...

    MARKETPLACE 
    Woah, so I am currently revamping my Upwork profile, and I decided to use your tips to contact some prospective students on a different freelance website that I've been on. I had given up on responding to student postings and decided to just let the students contact me first, which has worked...

    An excellent companion to TMF. Read it and I now have the inspiration/support to do what I felt too shy and unsure to take action on.
