My first ever interview on the CEO Morning Show. I had the opportunity to bring in Gummy Beatz for a live call and really pick his brain to get his come up story as well as advice on selling beats online however, we went so much deeper than online sales strategies.
We talked a lot about the overall entrepreneurial mindset that has helped him & I become successful and self sufficient without relying on industry placements to put money in our bank accounts.
One of the biggest topics of conversation was how slept on GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE is in the music producer community. Many big producers often let ego get in the way of their business and think that once you reach a certain point of success it is “good for your image” to talk down on your customers. This was such a fire conversation and their is so much knowledge to be absorbed from this episode. We even had a chance to bring in some fans for LIVE Q&A at the end.
