Modern Luxury’s Post

Our Bruce Wawrzyniak was in Nashville last week. That followed his having been in Alabama a few weeks earlier. And that was right after he'd just spent time in New York City. Today we posted our blog for this week, encouraging you to go find opportunities that might be out there for you, which you likely won't get if you shut it down and just stay home. Use the link below to read the full post and get actual examples of where maybe you should get yourself to -- even if locally. #musicbiz #connections #opportunities

As of July 1, 2024, a new State budget is active which includes a $32 million cut to arts and culture organizations across Florida. That means $0 in funding to support organizations like your Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra and $150,000 in grant support we no longer receive. Read more in this The Associated Press article on how this is affecting organizations across the entire State. #orlando #orchestra #supportthearts #budgetcuts

Every event and every occasion is an opportunity to meet up with @Abigail Medenciy from Supio. Some of the fun we had in Nashville during the @American Asociation for Justice was at the Country Music Hall of Fame. Even Dolly was there! For those who have never had the opportunity to visit Nashville, you need to visit the Parthenon. Originally built in 1897 and restored in 1920, it designated Nashville as the "Athens of the South." Conventions may seem like fun, but if you want to come home successful you have to network. That means work. How? I talk to people I don't know about the venue we're in. I talk about something I'm passionate about! I talk about music when I'm in a music hall; I talk about restaurants or clubs we've been to. If you're new to client relationships, don't start with trying to sell them something. Think about how you will be remembered. Build a relationship and make it memorable. If you missed me at AAJ and want to discuss how your firm needs to update its software, set up a call, and let's determine your needs. https://lnkd.in/gC6zPWBG #onepercentbetter #relationships #networking #legaltech #legalsoftware #makeadifference #knowyourstuff

URGENT: 100 Strangers Needed in 24 Hours — Minneapolis creatives, I need your help. Hello LinkedIn. It's Liban (lee~ben) here, and I'm reaching out with an urgent message. As the founder of Strangers Meeting Strangers (SMS), I find myself in a situation where I need to be fully transparent with our community. We're facing a challenge, and I take full responsibility for it. Tomorrow night, we're hosting our second non-government affiliated Town Hall at Theatre in the Round — an event that's grown from a simple idea of two strangers meeting on stage to becoming the largest intentional gathering of creatives in our city. But here's the truth: We've planned for 200 attendees, and with just 24 hours to go, we're only halfway there (100/200). This is on me. I waited too long to reach out, believing that word would spread naturally. I was wrong, and now I'm turning to you — our community — for support. Picture this: A 360-degree theater filled with artists, musicians, and creatives from all walks of life. The air is electric with anticipation. Strangers are becoming collaborators. Real, raw conversations are unfolding. The soul-stirring melodies of The Cherry Pit are washing over the crowd. Tickets available here: https://lu.ma/6518k4tt Why Attend? (1) Real Talk: Engage in honest conversations about money, purpose, and the challenges of a creative life. (2) Live Music: Experience the beautiful, soul-stirring melodies of The Cherry Pit. (3) Community Building: Be part of a movement shaping the future of our creative community. (4) Networking: Connect with fellow creatives who understand your journey. This isn't just another networking event. It's a chance to speak your truth and be heard, to shape the future of our creative community. If you're reading this, I want you to please consider yourself personally invited. And if you can't make it, I'd like you to share this message. Your single share could bring the person who changes the trajectory of our creative scene. Tickets available here: https://lu.ma/6518k4tt From one stranger to another, thank you. #StrangersMeetingStrangers #SMS #MinneapolisCreatives #TownHall #CommunityBuilding

When tackling a topic it will help to find a central character, or team of central characters, to give focus to your story and a heart to the problem. The solution, if there is one, is the journey we as the audience get to experience. If done correctly, we will connect to some emotion. Sadness, anger, anxiety for the main character and depth of the problem.

Kudos to Brittney Oliver for creating this comprehensive listing of Black-owned businesses in #Nashville. Our city has a lot to offer across many categories, and several of my favorites are listed here. #BlackBusinessMonth "This guide to Black Nashville is far from comprehensive. However, the businesses, historical sites, and—most importantly—people showcased below should give you a glimpse into Nashville's Black culture, which blends traditional old Nashville with the new. Here's what you need to know to plan your next trip to Music City."
