Building a creative business takes more than talent. It takes consistency, visibility, relationship-building, and the courage to keep showing up even when the results are not immediate.
In this episode of The Karas Wright Show, Karas Wright speaks with Russell Thomas of Birdsong Studios about what it takes to move from artist to entrepreneur. Russell shares how his past experience in radio, communications, arts leadership, and community work helped him build the foundation for a successful creative business.
The conversation explores the fear of rejection, using social media to build trust, asking for the sale, the importance of daily creative practice, and why small consistent actions can create long-term momentum.
→ If you wait for the business to come, it probably won’t, you have to generate it.
→ Consistency builds trust, connection, and long-term business growth.
→ Small actions repeated daily can create major momentum over time.
