These Days and Pro-Ject Launch Collaborative Panel and Podcast Series on Careers in Creativity

These Days has teamed up with the Chicago-based experiential marketing agency Pro-Ject to produce Workflow, a collaborative live panel and podcast series that aims to spark instructive and honest conversation about attaining and maintaining success in the creative industries.

The first panel, “Producing Your Own Event,” was held in March and featured multi-faceted insight for aspiring event throwers at all levels from Brent Heyl, Talent Buyer at Empty Bottle Presents, Ciera Mckissick, founder of AMFM, and Ruben Trejo, Multicultural Specialist at New Era Agency.

Listen back to the conversation below, which includes commentary on best practices, securing sponsorship, the day-to-day life of running a DIY venue, the art of talent buying with notes for artists, and how best to pursue relationships early on in your career.

The second Workflow live panel discussion will be held in early June, and the topic will be “Growing Your Audience Meaningfully.”
