MTTV: Amanda Palmer & The Art Of Asking
Amanda Palmer is notorious online for raising over a million dollars via crowdfunding and in this TED talk she stresses the importance of building direct relationships with your fans in the new music industry, but the lessons she shares can be applied to any community experience. Oftentimes, those who get hoisted onto a pedestal forget how to connect with those same people who look up to them when it can be as simple as asking for help from those who would love nothing more than to lend a hand.
