[...] Many of us were not born into wealth, do not live amongst Ivy League creatives, and do not have anyone to give us money to eat and live while we build a business, so we cannot quit our jobs to pursue entrepreneurship. As a result, we are perceived as uncommitted and unattractive to investors. [...]

Comment on Art without Commerce is a Hobby by evan loiterman

If I am matched with the right consumer and not asked to be cheaper faste
r or to change my style, and an agent understands for the time I put in I deserve compensation, ok. A hobby is something you do to relax and not need to improve on so much. Art whether it sells or not is a labor of love. Artists are funny. We would rather not sell something at all of of will be undervalued. Oddly to us its not a business in the same way a plant makes some widget. It makes no sense at all bit neither does love or inspiration.

Loving it Chris. I can really appreciate this post because I am a HUSTLER, but realize that I would have nothing to sell without a solid product produced by a talented tech team. I was the only sales guy at our company for four years, and started with no revenue, living at the office, eating mac and cheese and PB&J daily. I lived on the east side of Austin among crack dealers and some real hustlers.

Despite our humble origins, we had a top-notch tech team from the beginning that provided a product that was comparable or better than the competition. I should mention that the competition had 100s of million in revenue and resources. Bottom line is our tech team and product gave me the confidence to go in and sell head-to-head with the competition.
