Our guest this week is someone who wants to help new and aspiring composers succeed in the video game industry, the man behind Video Game Music Academy, Daniel Hulsman. Daniel is a 33-year-old father of 2, living in Boston with a huge passion for music. He received his Music Education degree from the University of Delaware, but due to the economic crash, (Hint: Most art-focused people's careers suffered) he had to shift careers and find a job that can support his family. He had worked for several corporations that allowed him to learn more about marketing and management, which he has found useful when he started building his own website: VGMacademy.com Daniel currently serves a public charter school as a Music Teacher for the past 4 years, all while managing a choir that records professional video game soundtracks twice a year. (Recording professional video game soundtracks? Oh, you mean, THE COOLEST JOB EVER?!) Ultimately, his goal is to create a stable, recurring stream of income online so that he can focus on his family, especially since his children are both still very young. But here's the thing, his website isn't gaining as much traction, and sales are mostly from selling semi-related products -- y'all know how frustrating that can be, right? So what does he do? Daniel sends us some hater-ade, a long email detailing his doubts, frustrations and surprisingly his hope that maybe - just maybe - we could help him become a successful online entrepreneur too! We can tell a troll from a critic, and this man was no troll, he really wanted something better for his family's future. How would you respond to someone with this sentiment? Well, look no further because this week's episode is all about how YOU can turn a critic into a customer, why you are not for everyone and why that's okay, and how to dispel that voice saying you are not expert enough.
