"Far too often have I seen amazing artists fall short financially or quit the industry because of money issues. The reason we wrote this book was to help all the amazing artists out there to be financially successful through a thought process and plan that will help them generate multiple streams of income!" ~ Fahim Niaz, Graphixly Founder
