Does doing what you love for a living always involve enterpreneurship? - Maple Leaf - 03-24-2014 04:13 PM
I love to look at wildlife and forage for free food, and I am an experienced musician and pianist, I am a vegan, and have researched health topics for quite a long time.
There was a guy I met last week that gave me some helpful advice and ways to make money and he told me to do what I love, instead of going into marketing. He also told me that I should create a Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter page to get people attracted to my piano playing.
Isn't that the same thing though? Doesn't everyone that does what they love and makes a living at it either blog, become an affiliate of some website, run an online business or make money off of youtube or different websites like Amazon?
How are you supposed to make money doing what you love if you don't market? I don't get what he was trying to tell me. Marketing is everything I think. If you don't know how to market, then you won't attract customers.

Erm, market what you love. All he is saying is that if you're going to go into business make sure it's something you love doing. And this is rather obvious because your interest and passion will keep you going and energized.

Not necessarily. I worked for a major telecommunications corporation for 31 years and for most of that time I was doing what I loved.
