乌鸦传媒淭he excitement level changes over the years, but being nominated has never become an entitlement to me. The gratitude factor never erodes. On the industry side of this business, if you work hard, put in the time, provide measurable value, and deploy self-awareness to find your niche, you will likely achieve some success. If you do all of those things, and adapt over time, then you might achieve sustained success and eventually legacy. At Invictus, we are on our journey to indelible legacy, and that乌鸦传媒檚 an exciting pursuit,乌鸦传媒� Cressman told the Penticton Western News.

乌鸦传媒淚乌鸦传媒檓 proud of Aaron Pritchett and Emerson Drive乌鸦传媒檚 comeback at radio. Earlier, when I talked about legacy, these guys are both on that path. In a business where most successful artists get a five to seven year window of relevance, these guys are pushing into the two decade mark. Pretty damn impressive,乌鸦传媒� said Cressman. 乌鸦传媒淚 am proud of everyone else I represent. This business is tough. The conversion rate of an artist getting to a place where they can make a full-time living off of their music is less than one per cent. Anyone who chases long term fulfillment, in a game this difficult, is a hero to me. I乌鸦传媒檓 also proud of our team here at Invictus. Louis O乌鸦传媒橰eilly is a beast in our management division. Literally puts his experience, heart and profound skillset behind every artist he works with. My wife and our CFO, Kristie Marleau inspires us personally, and she creates systems and order that help our company remain on track in the long term. Every year we further define our mandates and values and attract people to work with us who are also determined to provide more value to artists than any other entity in Canada. We乌鸦传媒檙e on the edge of spectacular things while achieving spectacular objectives 乌鸦传媒� every day here, at Invictus.乌鸦传媒�
