Networking for Artists Who Don't Like to Network (Season 2, Episode 8)

I want to send you a paperback copy of The Empowered Artist. Learn more at http://www.bob-baker.com/buzz/paperback-bundle/



It's been said that your "net worth" is directly related to your "network." So ... How well connected do you feel you are to people in your creative field?

On this episode I give my best advice on how to expand your circle of influence. How to increase the number of people you know ... and, more important, the number of people who know you!

Apparently, I'm considered to be a master networker - but I never think of myself that way. So if you don't like the whole concept of "networking," you'll get a lot out of this discussion.
