Take an interest in other humans - Musician Kari Paavola

He started out where many drummers did in his day; responding to magazine adverts for unpaid work with bands.
Over the years, Kari’s built a successful career for himself as a freelance musician, finding plenty of ways to diversify his income. He’s learnt so much that he now teaches others how to turn their passion into a profession.
So how did he get there, in an industry where it’s notoriously difficult to make a living?
Interestingly, by using a lot of the same skills and approaches that freelancers in other industries learn to apply.
Kari’s service might seem wildly different to yours, but you’ll be surprised by how much you can learn from his story of being freelance.
