Short YouTube clip by Eric Deeran (Master Filmmaker) asserting that creative professionals should not attempt to run a business without business training. The speaker uses analogies (flying a plane, performing surgery) to emphasize the risk, highlights that many videographers/filmmakers know the creative side but lack business skills, and finishes with a call-to-action: "comment the word workshop below" to learn how to run and scale a business.
Would you try to fly a plane without going to flight school, or would you try to operate on someone before going to medical school? If your answer is no, then why would you try to run a business without getting business training? A lot of videographers and filmmakers are struggling because they know the creative side of running their business, but they have no idea how to run the business side effectively. And if you wouldn't do the first two things I talked about, then don't run a business without getting business training. If you want to learn how to run your business and scale your business, comment the word workshop below.
