MELISSA CORE-CABALLO

As a lecturer and speaker,
you are deeply involved in
educating the next
generation of industry
professionals. What advice
do you have for aspiring
entrepreneurs, particularly
women, who are looking to
break into the music and
entertainment industry?

Get amongst it—run three
times as hard as younger
so you can walk in the park
in your mid to late 30s into
the rest of your life. Intern
for free; work cheaply just
to get close to the best
people in the space you see
yourself growing into—
people will never refuse
good help, and then you
can leverage yourself into
the job you deserve. I
worked so hard when I was
young, I worked for free so
many times to get close to
the execs, to get to anyone I
needed to, and it always
paid off. But most
importantly, know your
DH7 branding formulas
and build yourself the life
and work life you want,
like I did.
