Why Millenials, Coachella and Daycare are roadsigns for business

I've been pondering lately.  Not the random pondering that normally occupies my overly busy mind, but a more focused pondering, and a focus that is a sure sign that I am a geek and should really get out more.  But given I'm not out, I thought I would share the gathered outcome of this weeks ponders. It began when I was sent an article about Swedish House Mafia at Coachella.  It was a review, not so much of the music but of the effect that it had on the masses of people who filled the 'tent' and…See More

How The Happiest People In The World Spend Their Money

This may come as old news to many creatives reading this, after all you have been living your dream for a while, or you've chosen to follow your heart and passion. Every so often its nice to be reminded that the choices you've made are the ones others are being advised to consider. I for example work from home running my own business because I have kids and I want to be there for them each day after school, and also because I realised a long time ago I make a much better contractor than I ever…See More

Genius response to a bad review

We love this.  It happens to the best of us at some stage, a bad review, someone's bad comment about what we do.  At that moment we get that bad feedback we have a choice:  We can do nothing and let it slide, philosophically it shows more about them than ourselves anyway; We can throw mud back, but as the article below shows, that's probably just going to make you look like a schmuck and blow potential opportunities you didn't know were there; you can call in the LOVE - which is genius.  Go…See More

The Start Up Curve - interesting musings from AVC

Once a creative decides that their efforts are more than just a hobby and a passion but have the potential to make them a living they enter the world of the entrepreneur. That world is contains much higher peaks and unfortunately much lower lows.  When that is coupled with the fact that creative professionals are often laying their heart and soul out for the world to see with their product the prospect of riding through those peaks and troughs becomes more than a little daunting. Its helpful I…See More

Hey Janette,
Look forward to the opportunity of contributing to the portfolio evening. With enough time and a bit of sponsorship we could create a specific lighting environment for the event. Could be fun! :)

Hi Jana

That all sounds great. Featuring some of our CleveBastards would be cool... I could supply you with pics and content. I've also got a blog called Cleverhunting so would love to load some of that content to CreativeCollide. Would you like to have a look and let me know what you think of my posts? Also the Portfolio Presentation evenings sound like a great idea

Hi Janette, what a great site! I head up a website called CleverBastards.co.nz which hunts, showcases, promotes and sells the works of New Zealand artists and designers. I love getting their names and works in front of larger audiences around the world... and it looks like CreativeCollide might be it! Any hints or help would be most welcome.
Cheers
Paul
