#103 - How A Passion Project Can Turn Into A Real Job with Josh Kirchner

I’ve had a lot of conversations over the years with people thinking about producing outdoor media but don’t know if it’s worth doing.  They have a voice but either don’t know where to begin or just need a little nudge to overcome the fear of putting themselves out there.  If that’s you, this episode is for you.I asked my good friend Josh Kirchner on the show to discuss his journey with his website, Dialed In Hunter.  What began as a passion project writing articles for free has now become something that Josh gets paid to do. Josh and I dive into the weirdness of starting something online and discuss the personal benefits that can come of it even if you never see a single cent come your way.Show Notes and LinksIntroductionsHow Josh found himself writing about huntingExploring the idea of finding a “voice”Deciding what to share and talk about with an audienceJosh’s startup story and getting past the “weird” partOn being honest and genuineDreams versus realityWhat publications WANT to see from writersOn honing your craftFinding the “why”When to know you can charge for your workFriendships that come from putting your work out thereJosh’s future goalsFinal thoughts and AdviceHow to follow up with Josh onlinehttp://dialedinhunter.com/https://www.instagram.com/dialedinhunter/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6ItIjVnltPYvPWohOPk0dQText the show!Support the showThanks for tuning in!  Check out the links below to learn more, connect, and support the show.www.byland.coJoin my NON-SPAM newsletterLeave a [email protected]
