Benchmark Business Breakthroughs: Recent Episodes
Daren Smith
Each week we get thirty minutes to create a breakthrough for an artist, creative, or business owner that they can use as the leader of their business, using the Benchmark app. Hosted by Daren Smith, co-founder of Benchmark App.
Ryan Innes is an acclaimed singer-songwriter who has appeared on both NBC's The Voice - where he earned a four-chair turn - and Songland where he worked with Esther Dean on his song Long Way Home, which later became the song performed by the winner of that season of The Voice!
In today's episode, we talk about different income streams for musicians, growing from musician to business owner, and honing your craft to become so good that people can’t ignore you.
