Today will be a very different blog post. More of a freestyle, me just being me.
Something truly special and unique to me that had happened, actually more what happened to Artist Hue. I was awarded to be a winner for Enterprise Nation 16-18 age category. ( Wohooo!)
During the presentation, the fire alarm went off. We all had a good laugh.
So let me tell you how it all happened and where Artist Hue is going.
First of all, I am super excited to get back to work with this project that I have had in my head for a while of what I would like to do next. From collaborating with different artists, to launching a Podcast and creating Private Label products. Getting the validation today from so many people made my day. I am so happy about it as it is not only me now who sees the potential in this idea, but also other people who support this vision of mine.
So what is Artist Hue?
Artist Hue is a platform that will connect creative people together through selling art courses, podcasting as well as selling art supplies.
Also, to raise all of the capital needed I can see a great gap in the market with a great demand for Pinterest services for businesses. I am going to provide that to be able to grow my art blog to the heights that I want. So if
As well as that, I want to publish various books, from how to use Pinterest to How to start a blog. That will lead to creating and helping not only artists but small businesses on how to get started in this sphere of business online.
How would I like to do this you might ask me?
The current steps in my head are as follows:
1. Create a subscription based platform that will be generating revenue – start filming and collaborating with different artists.
2. Launch a podcast
3. Grow email list
4. Grow Pinterest.
5. Provide Pinterest services for small businesses, as well as publish eBook about it what it takes to grow.
So, how did it all start?
It all started when I was just turning 16. ( As I am writing this I am 17) Nothing in my life seemed to work. I felt hopeless and lost in life in general. I needed to choose my A-Levels and GCSE’s and everyone told me that the career of an artist immediately equals starving, poor, on the street. I knew that this is a global problem. I wanted to solve it.
How?
That’s what I was trying to figure out. I knew there is a way to go about that….
So I figured out that there is potentially a way of promoting artists and helping the artist to get promoted, as well as growing into an online platform that enables artists to do their courses and to be able to make money from that that would prevent them from starving.
That led me to an idea of creating an online platform where artists would sell their online courses and would potentially create a global platform where the best artists monetize their skills on autopilot. Artist Hue would take the charge of promoting this.
The next idea is to launch a podcast interviewing different artist and asking them what does it take to actually to succeed in the world of art in 21 century?, How to grow a following?, The monetization will come from the art courses that I would sell as well as to actually getting people to subscribe to my platform. It will help to grow it into the platform that I envision, that won’t only provide value to people.
Stay tuned for the journey ahead of me. I am excited and full of enthusiasm to actually commit to this project.
At the end of the day, everything teaches you, your trials, errors, it all adds to the experience. Connecting with different people is very exciting especially in the world of art.
I wanted to just say thank you for supporting and believing in this idea. Thank you for the Enterprise Nation and the Next Generation award for this really exciting opportunity for me. It means a world to me.
Also, some thoughts that came to me as I was doing the presentation and everything, I felt like being yourself really stands out from the crowd. I was not in a suit. I was in a hoodie. I am sure I did not look very professional and ticked off all of the “proper” boxes. I ended up just being me. And I feel like that is the real power. It is so easy to hide behind a mask, of being someone you are not. And another thing was, that hard work, sacrifices all work and pay off at the end. So if you are dreaming of starting something, you should start and never listen to what anyone is saying. It may be very hard, especially if it someone who is very close and important to you. But trust me later, they will get your vision when you show them proof.
