And that’s part of what makes this such an excellent episode—we have fun together! It also helps that Cory totally knows his stuff as an audio engineer, he’s an awesome storyteller, and he’s funny as hell.Some highlights from the episode:When Cory recognized that he should stop doing work for free… and why he kept doing free work anywayWhy Cory got a day job and still does his own work on the sideWhat Cory would have done differently, if anything, in becoming an audio engineerHow to get paid, when to ask for the money, and yet more money stuffHow Cory set up the not-so-fun but oh-so-necessary legal aspects of his businessThe ongoing debate about morning routines and whether you really need one to succeed“Scientific” proof why today’s music actually sucks—or, at least, substantive support from the educated ear of an audio engineer that today’s music is not goodCory Barton is an audio engineer for fiction podcasts and the founder of Kool Nerd Productions, an audio and music production company.—Songs mentioned in this episode:Lyrics from Sleepy Hallow’s “2055”Written by Tegan ChambersSong released April 14, 2021Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by the guest in this program are those of the speaker and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of the host Jasmine Love or Business Models for Creators.Watch Business Models for Creators on YouTube!
