Mark McGuinness- Thriving as a Creative Entrepreneur

La Pizarra con Nicky Mondellini

Mark McGuinness brings an insightful conversation for the last episode of season seven. He is an author, poet, and coach for creative entrepreneurs. Mark hosts the 21st Century Creative podcast, as well as A Mouth full of Air, a poetry podcast, both of which I highly recommend.

In this interview he shares some of the key points to start and evolve a creative business, and make a living out of our craft. Among other things, he mentions how to have those difficult conversations that are needed to advance in our careers, the importance of creating assets, how to treat the business as a creative project itself, as well as branding and positioning.

Mark has written four books full of resources on how to thrive as a creative in the 21st century. And contributed chapters to two international best sellers from 99U, Manage Your Day-to-Day and Maximize Your Potential.

He is an award-winning poet and has been a creative coach since 1996. During that time he’s worked with outstanding performers in almost every field of the arts and creative industries, including film, television, radio, theatre, music, design, advertising, and others.

Mark also talks about important aspects of a creative entrepreneur, including motivation, communication and presentation skills or productivity. He also shares part of his own “mental hygiene routine” to switch off the demands of work.
