Summary

BUSINESS INTERVIEW: How To Turn Art Into A Six Figure Business Jason Matias is todays guests joining us on the Join Up Dots business podcast today. Jason Matias is a photographer whose art career should be an inspiration to anyone in the Join Up Dots audience who believes that to be a true artist you have to fall into the "starving artist" stereotype. By changing the way he approached his passion Jason was able to create a career from something he loved. Jason runs a fine art business, which has supported him by generating over $100K in sales a year for the past 10 years (including 2020). His work has taken him all over the globe, from the United States to Abu-Dhabi to Indonesia, and has been published in National Geographic. How The Dots Joined Up For Jason While Jason's financial success is aspirational, it's his story that is the true inspiration for anyone wondering if they can make a living selling through their passions. Jason does not come from a wealthy family, who gave him a leg up in the art world. He was born into a military family and went into the family business by enlisting in the Air Force right out of high school. When Jason came out of the military 6 years later, he was terrified of becoming another homeless vet. While he tried some other conventional jobs, he couldn't shake his calling as an artist. Constantly obsessed with finding the light, Jason decided to put all his efforts into making a fine art career work. So what was it that kept on pulling him back into a world that screams from the outside you can love your work, but dont expect to earn from it? And where was his biggest jump forward to where he is today?
