You know that I’ve built up One Broke Actress to be my main source of income while being an actor. But have others done it? YES. And today I’m bringing you Jazelle Foster to talk about her journey in her acting career. Jazelle shares her journey from acting to founding a creative marketing company, Creatives Meet Marketing, offering social media strategies and insights for actors. We get into social media, online platforms, LLCs, financial management, the significance of embracing imperfection, and tips for cultivating a social media presence that works for you. If you’ve got an idea or a desire to get finanical freedom, Gabrielle and I are launching our Side Hustle Academy October 21st-25th - sign up below!
