Short excerpt from a YouTube video (Eric Deeran - Master Filmmaker) arguing that having the best work alone does not guarantee clients or money. The speakers emphasize that sales/marketing—getting in front of people and being a good salesperson—often matters more, and that a strong portfolio attracting clients typically happens only when someone is already at the top of their field.
And that's a key thing to learn about the most talented person doesn't always get the most money. And it's about who's the best salesperson.
Who can market the best, who can get in front of the most people.
And then obviously, you need to have.
A good product at the end of the day, too.
But just.
Having a lot of people have that fallacy where it's like, well, if I have a good enough product, I'm going to make money and people are just going to come to me. Which is not necessarily the case.
No, it's. It's just it. It happens sometimes, you know, if you have a strong portfolio, the work will come to you, you know, But I'd say usually that's only happens it when you're at the top of the game and you're doing stuff.
