Summary:

It may seem scary out there without a label. On the other hand, if you take charge of your own career, the only “recoupable expenses” you ever have to deal with are ones you personally sign off on. There’ve always been a daring few artist-entrepreneurs. But in the digital age, the path is far easier, and the choice may be fast becoming a no-brainer. Bring your left brain to this session, and find out from the people who’ve crunched the numbers how to handle your own business.
