As consumers, we often prioritize exceptional customer service and are willing to invest extra for a positive experience. Entrepreneurs and small business owners can apply this same principle by actively building personal connections through face-to-face interactions, both in-person and online.

If you’re an entrepreneur and music is part of that, you will inevitably face criticism. The key is to learn how to discern constructive feedback from negativity. To improve as an artist, it is essential to seek out external quality checks and surround yourself with trusted voices who can provide honest feedback. Being clear about your artistic goals and purpose, as well as having a strong sense of self, will help guide you in making the art that you truly want to create.
