Follow your dreams by starting a new career in the digital music industry.
Atlanta, GA (Billboard Publicity Wire/PRWeb) November 13, 2006 -- It's just an all too familiar story in today's fickle corporate business culture: Kelly Thomas, a single mother and musician at heart, suddenly found herself out of a job due to the typical corporate merger.
Thomas, who holds a degree from Georgia State University, has a great deal of sought-after job experience. Still, like many men and women who assumed they would have a lifetime of career opportunity in corporate America, she found herself in an endless cyclical nightmare of either being laid off or left to fly solo with hectic, last minute freelance projects.
Why Timing is Everything...
Thomas was more than ready for a complete change that would allow her to follow her personal interests and pursue a new career as a self employed, new American entrepreneur. As an amateur musician, Thomas was pursuing her musical interests in her spare time by refining her bass guitar skills and attending various open jam events around Atlanta. Like many beginning artists, she could think of no finer way to follow her dreams than by making a living in the music industry - but how?
Little did she know that fate and the rapidly evolving digital music revolution was going to play a hand in turning her fondest dreams into an economic reality with a bright future.
It was at this point, feeling frustrated and at the limit of her coping skills, that she responded to someone who always seemed to be there for her as both a mentor and friend. With a professional history at the helm of many high tech and new media companies, Jackie Goldstein called her to get involved in the exploding growth of the digital music business. By purchasing an affordable website from her through BurnLounge, Thomas opened her own Internet-based, 'virtual corner record store'.
In it she sells digital music by independent artists and major label artists as well. BurnLounge provides the tools needed to jump start your business with an ever growing library of music and a user friendly, customizable storefront. Additionally, a commercial is located at the bottom of each retailer's website which makes that initial sales pitch a no brainer. "I was so impressed with the structure of this business because digital inventory obviously does not require warehousing or shipping. The backend office takes care of all order processing in real time and it's a product that everyone loves!" said Thomas. "There's not a business model like this anywhere."
The future looks brighter than ever to Thomas. Not only is she a new American entrepreneur but, she has taken the first step to economic freedom that allows her the hands-on flexibility to be a work at home Mom. She has also found herself in the right place at the right time to benefit from the window of opportunity in the emerging digital music industry. "We are still a young company with global expansion plans early next year. Other forms of digital entertainment are on the horizon as well: movies, games, ringtones, etc. This is a very exciting time!" said Thomas.
As the very wise Chinese sage Confucius once said, "Find a job you enjoy, and you'll never have to work a day in your life!"
