“Imagine it's your last day on Earth. What song would you write?“ – Greig Watts

Today’s featured bestselling author is a father, husband, songwriter, publisher, and A & R, Greig Watts. Greig and I had a fun on a bun chat about his book, “Keeping the Dream Alive: A Songwriter's Guide to Overcoming Rejection, Finding Success and Enjoying the Journey Along the Way”, what it’s like navigating business deals overseas, finding international success in unexpected places, and more!!

Key Things You’ll Learn:

What inspired Greig to become an author, and his journey to getting his first book published

Why it’s important to say yes to opportunities and embrace new experiences

The difference between negotiating deals in the East vs. the West

How a setback led him to become a music consultant for the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation)
