But there’s more than just “stuff” and “digital stuff” that you need if you want to make it in this gig. […]

Thank you, Ashley! By following your advice I just got my first paying gig.

Without a website or any social media presence! I used the clips I created in Clips Camp and I just decided to go for it.
