STOP MARKETING - Ep 57

STOP MARKETING - Ep 57

You hear the title! Reel it back one second. I have a suggestion for you. Take that energy you invest in other people and instead use some to solidify the relationships around you. When your next idea is released the first one's to support it, share it, are gonna be the people close to you. Personal relationships, when they hear you, feel you, see you, that tend to hold more weight than someone you promoted to on the internet. On this episode I explore the importance of not taking those closest to you for granted. 

Octaviani.biz is the site where you can find my curated gallery and my online shop home to my merchandise.

Work Like Someone Is Watching - EP 56

Work Like Someone Is Watching - EP 56

You wanna know why I tell people work like no one is watching? Because when it comes to the point where you reach your big break, when you get that audience you've been working towards, what are people who are new to you and your brand going to do? Check out your OLD work. Catch up on every thing you made prior to when they discovered you. Look at how powerful that can be. This is the reason why I am stressing on today's episode the importance of taking your work as serious as you possibly can, be your realest critic. Regardless of your experience, treat every project, every collaboration like it's a feature film, like it will get featured in a magazine or win an award. It will pay off if not now then in the future.

My website is up and running and ready to be viewed, Octaviani.Biz, now featuring a gallery with everything on sale! Also, my online shop will be up and running at the end of July! Not just about me you can stay informed on protests, petitions, find where to donate, and more!

Pure Radio, a podcast for the ART community, is hosted by Joseph Octaviani and was created in 2018. What started out as just a hobby quickly turned into a passion of wanting to help. Joseph provides insight, recommendations, and any helpful tips to help YOU become the best artist you can be. No matter the experience, no matter the medium. Do you want to become an artist? This is the show for you!

Are You Ready - EP 55

Are You Ready - EP 55

If you ever find yourself wondering, why haven't I captured that dream of mine? I want you to stop and look within. Episode is an introspective one so be ready to do a lot of thinking and soul searching. I want us to slow it down and ask ourselves, are we ready? Are YOU ready? It's ok if you aren't, this is the opportunity to learn, practice.. while you still can afford to.

Some things I would love to share:

  •  One major change in my artistic journey has been the movement towards full independence. This episode I reveal that from now on all the sales of my artwork will be handled entirely by me. No more partnerships that take a fat cut. No more companies I have to rely on. It is something I am proud of.  Every transaction will be more personal. 
  • Another move, my podcasts will be entirely produced by me so that I have control of the sound and artistic direction. 

Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Visit the site to check out how to stay updated on this movement happening. Find a protest or a petition, support my gallery, or just come and have a look!
