On this episode of the I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we get ghosted by our guest! With no one left to interview – and studio time already booked – we pull Producer, Danny Thompson, behind the mic for an off-the-cuff convo around the topic of “fails and what we’ve learned from them.”
Thompson is really knowledgeable in a lot of areas, he’s an all-around interesting dude. He co-owns The Music Factory School of Music, is a Podcaster and Marketing Consultant over at Music Lesson Business Academy, produces the I Heart Costa Mesa Show, and is the drummer for the band Face To Face.
In this episode, we talk about small business, haters, touring and travel, struggles, legacy, Yelp, Patreon, work ethic – and, duh, Costa Mesa!
