Dance Boss: From Start-Up Enterprise to Dancepreneur
Do you dream of starting your own dance business but just don’t know how?
Are you stuck wanting to grow your career in dance but can’t seem to make progress?
This unique and inspiring book has all the answers!
In DanceBoss – From Start-up Enterprise to Dancepreneur, author and dance professional Chris Duncan shows you how to make your dance business dream a reality. With over three decades of industry experience across multiple successful enterprises, she openly shares her knowledge and expertise, providing a step-by-step framework to help develop future dancepreneurs.
As a teacher, choreographer and studio owner, and now, as an agent, publisher, event manager and producer, Chris has dedicated herself to providing as many opportunities as possible for the next generation of dancers to learn, grow and become incredible future leaders. She understands how many passionate dancers enter business ‘accidently’, as a way to monetise doing what they love. And while the fun-factor is important, it can only take you so far, especially when things get tough (like when a pandemic hits!).
After a career spanning 35 years, Chris knows the highs and lows of doing business in dance. In this motivational book she demonstrates her versatility as a mentor, successful business owner and passionate advocate for dance, sharing her knowledge and insights to help dance industry professionals across the globe find their niche and make their mark.
In DanceBoss, Chris shares valuable lessons and insights she has learned through trial and error across multiple dance business ventures of varying sizes. You’ll discover the tips, tricks and shortcuts that can fast-track your journey to success, along with the five essential business pillars that need to be mastered in order for your enterprise to really thrive. Chris also shows you how to find the right type of dance business to maximise your strengths, and how to stand out from the crowd in a competitive industry.
Whatever stage of business growth you are currently immersed in, from the early days of a start-up through to the highly rewarding creative entrepreneurial phase, it can be exhilarating and empowering—but it can also be a little overwhelming. Whether you are a business ‘newbie’ or have been operating your studio for many years, this practical and easy to follow guide will show you how to avoid wasting time, energy and money. You’ll learn how to get clear on your intention and purpose so you can understand your all-important ‘why’ and have the confidence you need to progress your dance-biz to the next stage.
As a passionate and highly respected force of the dance industry, Chris inspires students and professionals across the world to thrive and prosper. DanceBoss is an intimate guide to her own personal business journey, expanding her mentoring role to reach passionate dancepreneurs worldwide, so they can smash their dance-biz journey and create their own successful enterprise.
