B's Creative Asylum | Small Business Advice Bobbie Jo

This episode was done on the fly and mostly because I promised myself I would get it out before the end of the year....which is in about 45 minutes. Cutting it close I guess. I'm so excited because through this process of creating the first season of B's Creative Asylum I've been able to really figure out who I am as an artist and where I'm trying to go. I've experienced so many new things this year. 

Thank you guys for being a part of that especially my friends and family who don't have to listen but do. Y'all be da best! 

Next season coming in February with a new flavor but same ol' ME! 

I'm about to go heat up some leftover Chinese, read some new Year tarot, and kiss my sleeping son at midnight. 

Happy New Year! 3

Hey Busy Little Bees,

How's your week going? It's running away from me! Where has the time gone? This week is all about planning your content. So many brands I've worked with overthink this process and get so lost in calendars and perfection, something meant to help them makes it worst. I don't want you to be running and not understand why you're doing this.

Figure out what works best for you and your brand but in this podcast, I explain the baseline understanding of building your content strategy. Keep trying new things too. Never get too comfortable in any strategy until or unless you feel comfortable in the exact level of business your brand is doing each week.

My non-profit for this week is Hope Housing.

In this episode, I speak with my fellow creatives about how to receive feedback. I get it, getting feedback can suck sometimes. Suck time, energy, creativity but you HAVE to be willing to put yourself out there to properly grow. And as I say in this episode you should be growing or you should be going. Being a creative especially a creative marketer knowing how to direct and accept feedback is going to change your entire creative experience. A lot of this is about mindset and it's okay if it hurts sometimes. People always want us to "man up" and pretend things don't hurt. That toxic culture, you don't need someone to babysit your emotions but you certainly deserve to be spoken to and your work be spoken about with respect. Point blank exclamation mark!

This episode is tough. Like as tough as that dry leftover turkey you're trying to make a sandwich with, but some of y'all wondering why you can find or keep a good writer need to hear this.

Seriously, please do not listen to this one if you're not ready to hear the full truth of what your creative and copywriters NEED and DESERVE from someone giving them notes. Hint, it's not some negative overgeneralized statement.

Don't worry, next week I'm coming for my fellow creative hard too about HOW they need to humble thy self to accept notes and edits.

But first, let me sit you down and have an honest one-on-one.

My creative shout out this week goes to @sunflowers_and_angels on Tik Tok.

My non-profit this week is the wonderful Room to Read

You can find me at B Lifted Creative and my IG & Tik Tok is @bliftedcreative 

Thanks guys, have a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you and your entire family give better notes this next year. haha
