Excerpt
I’m a huge proponent of making excellent connections and sometimes this means adopting a slightly different perspective. If you are in a business that relies on clients for the bulk of your income stream, then making those connections and keeping them is critical to your success. Treat people with respect, exceed expectations, love what you do and a one-time connection may well become a lifelong client. – David Aiken

These articles are exclusive to this PDF publication and cannot be found anywhere else! It’s a great resource to add to your business library! Plus, it kicks the pants off those crazy expensive industry mags that are full of garbage ads and have absolutely nothing to offer with respect to growing or managing your creative endeavor.

Last month we introduced our members to the Kilgoris Project, and how the Amazon Kindle is revolutionizing the way children in Kenya are learning. In support of this project and to celebrate the clamorate! (re)launch, we held a draw for two Kindle units during the month of January. We are pleased to announce that the lucky winners are:

Debbie Hartmann
and
Jason Pickles

A very special thanks goes out to Jon McCormack, co-founder of the Kilgoris Project for sponsoring this draw and allowing us to be part of the effort in raising awareness about education and literacy throughout the globe. They are the very roots of creativity, and we all benefit from a more educated and inspired world. To learn more about The Kilgoris Project or make a donation please visit www.kilgoris.org.

Congratulations again to Debbie and Jason. Your Kindles are on the way!

CROWD CONTROL takes an in-depth look at generating demand and eliciting curiosity in your creative work. Corwin uses examples from his management consulting business, and personal projects like CREATIVEMIX, to illustrate how you can promote your creative endevour and grow your business by engaging with people instead of pushing a sales agenda.

The content is divided into three sections: Drawing a Crowd (changing ones’ marketing paradigm from tasks to people), Making Connections (turning contacts into leads, making the most of your networking opportunities, and spreading the word without selling your soul), and finally Making an Experience (insights on how hosting an inspired event, of any size or budget, can grow your network).

Crowd Control by Corwin Hiebert is available for just $5.

This 62-page eBook (nearly 14,000 words) is packed with insights, ideas, and best practices that are connected together by a simple question: Do you want to stand out from the crowd or do you want to attract a crowd?

Excerpt

Creatives have been getting new work for many reasons; talent, quality and marketing are only part of the answer to the riddle. More than anything demand comes through relationships and being a capable problem solver. We gain the opportunity to offer our creative solutions only once we’ve built a meaningful connection with those close to the problem. Companies and clients are not hiring you for your services as much as they are putting their trust in you to help them successfully produce a creative solution. In other words, unless your endgame is to build trust and solve problems then you’re just like everyone else in the crowd; making noise about yourself but not actually saying anything of value.

Relationships with other humans make for experiences. We make decisions based on past experiences; good experiences make for favourable action.
