In the wake of the Industrial Revolution, the economy was reconfigured to manufacture goods en masse and sell them as quickly and cheaply as possible. This shift created standardized but stable jobs for an entire generation.
Many criticize technology and trade for upending this system, but few realize the new opportunity the internet has created. Today, it's easier than ever to marry your passion and occupation by monetizing your individuality. Ex-Planet Money journalist Adam Davidson and tech investor Li Jin have independently dubbed this new reality “The Passion Economy.”
In this pack, you’ll hear from each of them, first, separately, then in conversation. They'll tell you all about the Etsy sellers, Influencers, Artists, and Teachers who are taking advantage of our new reality by identifying their unique talents and finding an audience for them.
In future packs, we’ll dive deeper into the types of creators thriving in this new world and the companies enabling their success. Subscribe so you don’t miss them!
