My 1st NETWORKING-AHHHH! It was a SUCCESS🫡🤪

My first networking event was sucess!

A lot of you do not know but I do not know but I do a lot of things😭🤍. I am a flight attendant who is also is in the military reserves. I have a business called The Blank Agenda selling digital planners and other digital products to help people succeed. I am an alternative artist who goes by JeeBeeSea, last year I had 19hrs of streams on Spotify, but 31k streams on Youtube🤍✨ for my song No Lovey Dovey.

I decided that I wanted to take my music life more serious and step foot into the scene, that I prayed about it and add to my vision board that I want to network with more people this year😭😭

A few days later, I seen a now hiring post for graphic designers to the recording studio I usually went to. I decided to apply, and didn’t know what I was getting myself into because I only did graphic designing for myself. I was a real beginner. But they loved the work I did for myself and decided to bring me onboard.

Now I work at a recording studio where I am allowed to use the equipment and network with other artists.

Last night I felt in my element working and meeting new artists.

I am excited to see where else this will take me.

Fake it until you make it!

Networking is essential for those in creative industries, whether you're a musician, artist, or entrepreneur. Engaging with others can lead to collaborations, insights, and new opportunities. Being proactive at networking events can significantly boost your career. Preparing an elevator pitch, having business cards ready, and showing genuine interest can help create lasting connections. Join local artist groups or attend themed events to expand your network. Also, social media can be a powerful tool for following up with new contacts, sharing your work, and staying engaged with the community. Remember, building relationships takes time, so don't rush the process. Enjoy the journey and celebrate small victories along the way!
