Hey friends,
My mind is caught up on one worry in particular that I can foresee being an issue. I'm currently sitting on a business plan that is very, very likely to bring huge success. I'm talking millions, and millions of dollars, all due to an innovation in a field that genuinely needs it. Not gonna talk about it here on this post in detail, but for the sake of the question at hand, let's just assume that is in fact the case.
I love Entrepreneurship, I love business, I love every single thing about the hard-work, dedication, and risk-taking it requires to become part of the 1%. The one thing I don't like is my privacy being taken away from me. Furthermore, I find it insanely hard to believe that if my business becomes what it's highly likely to be, I'll somehow be able to live an introverted, quiet, private life with no publicity surrounding me or things I do outside of this business.
For further context: I'm also a music artist, and my style of music is very dark and eerie, and it goes alongside a cryptic character persona that I play. Publicly, if people associate my music artist career with the business I'm working on, it'll likely be a PR nightmare. Not because I'm doing anything wrong per se, but at face value it'll look very odd and there will be loads of judgement sent my way that I don't want affiliated with my business.
In essence, playing a horror villain character with dark, angsty music does not pair up well with an innovation in the youth market, constantly under the microscope of parents and specialists in the field relevant to my business.
I hope my concerns here make sense, but I can only imagine a parent looking at my business, seeing my name, searching me, then coming across what I do in the music industry and judging me for it. Thus, bad PR and an invasion of my privacy as an Entrepreneur.
In a perfect world, I'd love for the about section of my businesses website to simply have a pseudonym, with a description of my background. Nothing more, nothing less. I find it very hard to believe that'll bode well if this business truly takes off like I anticipate.
If anyone has advice for those going into business that crave copious amounts of privacy and want their passions outside of business to stay separate, please share! Thanks all!
