Business of Being Creative with Sean Low Sean Low
-
- Arte
I’m Sean Low, and I’ve been lending practical business advice to those in the business of being creative since the early 2000s, including accomplished notables such as Preston Bailey, Vicente Wolf, Nate Berkus, Sawyer Berson, Style Me Pretty, Marcy Blum, Michelle Rago, and Sylvia Weinstock--to name a few.
The key to my own success has been my ability to help artists build their businesses in a way that most honors the art that is behind them. I’ll give you straight up, no holds barred advice on handling what happens from deal to done. The journey with your client begins when they first connect with you, whether digitally or in real life. And from that moment until the project is finished, you have the power to manifest an experience and journey with them that’s transformative for all.
Everyone should be creative. Whatever your art is, it should invigorate you and bring you joy. And if it happens to be your business, it should bring you the money you need to KEEP being creative. Hopefully, I will challenge you each week to do just that.
So, let’s not just think outside the box… Let’s erase it!

Perfectionism vs. Vision
Perfectionism lives within so many artists. Cliches abound: “Perfect is the enemy of good”, “Be the best”, “Profit and perfect are mutually incompatible.” Really it is a conversation about Creation versus Craft. Enter Jiro Loves Sushi.

Be Grateful: Shun The Non-Believers
Creative business is built on the microscopic. For so many creative businesses, the very idea of serving more than 500 customers in a year is silly. Most are built on less than 50. And yet we speak in platitudes and generalities not radical authenticity. We do it because we have framed the conversation in terms of fear and rejection. How about we consider being grateful as we shun the non-believers. Listen in…

Emotional Resonance, Professionalism, Stillness, A Flashlight And Generosity
Emotional resonance is what separates you, the artist, from the rest of us. While you have a gift at your craft, that is not why you are paid. You are paid to be professional, to make us feel and to feel while not getting lost in the emotion of the moment. Simultaneously, engaged and removed from the situation. Enter stillness, a flashlight and generosity. Listen in…

Value Delivery
Transparency is not Saran Wrap. It is being secure in what you charge and then knowing how you are going to earn it. As clients get smarter, value is not about being relative to competition, it is about knowing what you earn and when. Let’s talk bananas. Listen in…
