Pombo Live.<br> <br> <br> <br> Today I’m going to tell you a little bit about this fellow here. This is Charles Wiley.<br> <br> <br> <br> I got to interview on a very special episode of the Off the Grid Biz Podcast.<br> <br> <br> <br> There’s a link in the description here.<br> <br> <br> <br> Go and listen to it. It’s really cool. He’s a cool guy.<br> <br> <br> <br> We got to meet him over in Albany, Oregon. When we went for the Mother Earth News Fair earlier this year.<br> <br> <br> <br> Charles Wiley though, really interesting guy.<br> <br> <br> <br> This is a musician who has done music his entire life, grew up in a musical family and is dealing with the fact that the music industry is completely falling apart and transforming.<br> <br> <br> <br> Really it’s transformed into something completely different than it was when many of us were younger.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s in the process still of transforming. It still hasn’t completely found its base.<br> <br> <br> <br> At one point you would put out an album, you would get it played on radio stations.<br> <br> <br> <br> People would go out, purchase the album and that’s how you would make money. You’d also make money doing concerts and going on tour and selling merchandise and things of that sort, that whole model has completely fallen over and gone on in a million different directions.<br> <br> <br> <br> Music just isn’t what it used to be.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s a different industry and Charles didn’t just sit back and suck his thumb. He decided he was going to do something about it.<br> <br> <br> <br> He was going to try to stand out.<br> <br> <br> <br> How did he stand out?<br> <br> <br> <br> He created something called the Corn Man.<br> <br> <br> <br> What is the corn man?<br> <br> <br> <br> The corn man is a children’s book. It’s a musical album.<br> <br> <br> <br> It is an audio reading of the album put out in pieces over time.<br> <br> <br> <br> The Corn Man goes on and on and on, it keeps becoming something different.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s a coloring book.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s, it’s multiple things.<br> <br> <br> <br> Go and listen to that episode on OffTheGridBiz.com, link is in the description, for that specific episode where I interview Charles Wiley, the Corn Man.<br> <br> <br> <br> He could tell you all about standing out.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s all about differentiation.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s all about being different than everyone else in your field.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s being different from anyone else out there and learning how to stand out and we have a great discussion as far as that goes on that podcast.<br> <br> <br> <br> Go and listen to it.<br> <br> <br> <br> If you’re looking to stand out, if you’re looking to take your business and really stand out, if you’re in the space that I discuss called the self-reliance space, meaning you help people become more self-reliant either through nutrition like Charles or talking about overall health or you’re helping people to become more self reliant with their resources or you’re helping people to grow their own food or what have you, go to DreamBizChat.com<br> <br> <br> <br> DreamBizChat.com is all for business owners that are in the self-reliance field.<br> <br>
