Hi my name is Nick Quintero and over the last 20+ years I have been making music, starting side hustles & working in creative positions at corporate companies. All I have ever done for a living is make things. Aside from using these skills to start my own business, start my own podcast and create a nice side income from freelancing projects, I have been helping my friends with all of their creative ventures along the way. And now I’d like to help you.Podcasting is my newest leap into a new creative field and as I’ve joined a few communities I have noticed a lot of people asking questions about making merch and doing beginner marketing. This made me realize that these are the questions in these communities that I am best suited to help answer! I really enjoy making things for a living but helping other people make their stuff is also so so satisfying. I love the idea of contributing to ideas and leaving a positive mark in this world before it’s too late.
