Career Advice and Strategy
As an artist manager with 10 years of corporate/ad agency marketing experience, my approach is to understand your goals/objectives. If you can talk me through where you want to go artistically and what you are doing, I can provide business perspectives that might help you focus. In a sense, you're getting some time with an ad agency/artist manager to help you with direction.
