Here at Stand Out Be You, we love bringing you the stories of solopreneurs and small business owners, and really capturing the story of you.
Well, just like all of our amazing podcast guests, today’s guest is enhancing her solopreneur journey with her own unique flair. As a recent college graduate and founder of The Creative Folks, Tammy Huyhn’s artistic background adds a touch of color and creativity to her business, which focuses on helping and showcasing local Atlanta area artists and creatives. Whether you’re a creative wondering how artists make money, or you’re wondering how creatives in business can enhance their journey, Tammy’s tips are worth a listen.
With being online… you can start kind of shifting your direction, and shifting the business focus in different directions because you’re allowing yourself to be open to growth and where it could actually take you.
Like most solopreneurs, Tammy started her journey off small: with a simple blog. Wanting to share her experiences as a graphic designer, Tammy began creating an open forum for like-minded creatives, eventually expanding it to allow artists to collaborate and communicate about their resources and experiences.
As someone passionate about the creative community, Tammy has made it her mission to help others learn how to be an artist and make money (instead of falling into the “starving artist” trap). With tips on getting out of overwhelm, managing your time effectively, and valuing your own work, Tammy shares her own experiences and honest insights into the work of a creative solopreneur.
No matter what your passion is, starting and running your own business takes serious time and effort. Plus, as a creative, you might be feeling overwhelmed by the stress of producing new work and running your business effectively. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Get support from like-minded individuals—and past podcast guests like Tammy!—on the Faces of Collaboration Facebook group, where we share tips to enhance your day-to-day, whether you work a nine-to-five or you’ve set off on your own.
