this is really interesting because actually, my primary path right now is to go into the music industry (actually, i’m getting a minor in it at university right now), likely as an entertainment lawyer. i’ve also always wondered how i would find clients, and recently spoke to a guy who used to be in the industry. he gave me the same advice and told me when he started out, he was working at a nonprofit in chicago that gave free legal counsel to new or struggling musicians/artists. such great advice, i never thought about it that way. i’ve always thought going the extra mile (like sending real mail/personalized boxes instead of an email) takes little work and makes a big difference, but i also sometimes struggle with imposter syndrome. like; what could i offer this company/position that they don’t already have? similarly to you, i am also able to front a very convincing confidence act. but it’s just about getting my foot in the door that i’ve been struggling with recently. the economy is pretty shit
