Jules, Rachel, and Stephanie chat about:

  • how rejection can make you better
  • and ways to handle rejection

If you have a question you'd like us to discuss feel free to email us at hello@artistssoar.com

Key Talking Points * Julie has changed her mindset to realize that you have to get a ton of 'Nos" before you get a yes. * Recognize when you are experiencing imposter syndrome. * You have to take the gut punch of rejection and keep going. * Turn the negative into a positive. * You have to have a failure rate, and take the shots. * Evaluate and talk with other artists to see what is working for others. * Have some friends mill about in your booth to pique interest. Do not be on your phone! * Consider giving a survey to find out what the audience or email subscriber wants. * Test different ways of doing things (A/B testing). * Mindset is the #1 thing to watch. * #2 Figure out how to turn it into a positive * Consider having a document that you can actually write what you want to say to get it out of the way (never share) * Create a "Fabulous File" to put all of the positive things people have said about your work. * Write down what hurt you and burn the note.

We'd love to hear what you do to handle rejection, email us at hello@artistssoar.com
