Music On Your Own Terms 095 - Azhelle Wade/The Toy Coach - Toying With Creativity & Marketing
Sitting down for a chat this episode is Azhelle Wade, a former VP of branding for a major toy company, three time patented toy inventor, entrepreneur, cancer survivor, and now host of the Making It In The Toy Industry podcast that teaches aspiring toy inventors how to market their ideas and turn them into successful toys. We learn about Azhelle's background in creative design and product development, her own clothing line that forced her to learn the fashion industry from scratch, and how getting cancer propelled her career. She also shares a number of actionable tips that musicians can apply to their own business, some fantastic advice on launching a successful Kickstarter campaign, and also some thoughts on different avenues that you could market your music.
