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 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.

Hitting creatives right where they need to be hit

Sean never fails to hit me right in the gut, when I need it the most. This podcast is always inspiring me to push myself into a different sphere of creativity and the way I run my business.

Amazing

Wish I had found Sean’s insight sooner!

Tony Fisher! ,

Sean rocks!

I follow Sean and everything he does via my wife and partner, Andrea Eppolito. She has been a member of Sean’s private group, the Business of Being Creative (commonly referred to as the “BBC”). It has changed her business, and her outlook on business. Sean forces you to see things from a different perspective. That doesn’t mean that you have to agree with him. He forces you to THINK and evaluate your position and arguments and whether or not they are the correct ones for you. I love that Sean is finally doing a Podcast - this is simply a taste of what you can get in the BBC. If you want to be pushed outside your comfort zone, grow and develop your business senses - then listen to Sean and subscribe!
