Building a Permission Base and Cultivating True Fans

Success in creative endeavors doesn't come from expecting viral hits but rather through consistent engagement and building a permission base. It involves inviting fans to subscribe to newsletters and stay updated on your work to gradually build a following. By focusing on cultivating one thousand true fans, independent artists can sustain a living. This journey requires continuous effort, and later on, utilizing platforms like Patreon and Kickstarter can also be beneficial.
