ABSTRACT
The career plan is far from being something that is chiseled in stone and to be strictly followed. Any plan must be fl exible, and the artist career plan will require modifi - cation on a monthly basis, perhaps more often. A plan like this is a guide that is a refl ection of reality, and the artist’s reality will change often the fi rst year or two of a new career. The plan will need to be modifi ed as circumstances change. For example, some goals will be achieved quicker than anticipated and, likewise, some will take
longer than expected. There is nothing wrong with this. It is the reality that an ambitious plan made to help navigate within a highly competitive industry will require continuous updating.
