Top Quotes from Lynn Colepaugh
On Treating Creative Work as Business:
"It is convincing creators that they are a small business. And it's a really big hurdle because they are creators at heart—whether they are dancers, whether they're making instruments, whether they are writing music."
On AI vs. Authenticity:
"I'm seeing the pendulum swing away from as much AI generated stuff back to people questioning, 'Is this real, a real image or is this something that was generated separately?' And those that are authentically creating are now standing out even more in a really beautiful way."
On Basic Marketing Fundamentals:
"If some industries are just so kind of barren with communications that all you have to do is reply and be thoughtful and communicate, then holy mack, there are companies missing out completely on getting new customers and nurturing customers and keeping their customers long term."
On Local Trust Building:
"I tell people, if you have roots, show your roots, because that's how people know if something goes wrong, they're going to be able to find you."
On Low-Hanging Fruit:
"So many things are on the very granola first level fixable level that people have issues that are just 100% addressable."
On Timeless Marketing Strategy:
"If you're getting your message out correctly, then you will adapt as tools come and go. To me, it is staying face forward there, making sure you're storytelling and talking about the things that are important."
