Hello family! 👋🏾

Do you know any Ghanaian who is interested in being, or is already working as, an A&R focused on Gospel music?

Please connect us! I’ve got some amazing opportunities for the right person.

DM me or tag them below. 🙏🏾

Bro, if you don’t mind, I’d actually love to see your audience demographics. If Ghana isn’t in your top 3, I’ll be VERY surprised 😮

@j3stblaze @PoundsterlingDr @JasperZiggle There’s no fixed price for a haircut in Ghana oo 😊.

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

@AngiePosh5 God bless you!🙏🏾

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

@KwesiVirgins @PoundsterlingDr @JasperZiggle lol but calling people who make more than GH₵200 a day “outliers” is exactly my point. You can’t use your personal experience as the baseline. The reality on the ground is different for different barbers, locations, clientele, pricing etc.

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

Dear Artist,

There is a difference between saying “I didn’t get enough support” and saying “I got no support.”

Those are two completely different statements.

So… which one do you mean? 👀

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

@RevErskineGH You are right! Then the moment the numbers come, the narrative becomes, “Nobody supported me. I did this all by myself.” 😂😂

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

@PoundsterlingDr @JasperZiggle So because you don’t make GH₵200 a day, you think every barber doesn’t make more? 😂😂 Please, your personal income is not the industry benchmark oo.

Capital follows traction. Not ideas 🤷🏽‍♂️

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

We often separate ministry from the marketplace, but what if they’re more connected than we think?

The same skills you develop serving God’s Kingdom are often the ones that open doors in business, leadership, and influence.

The Church doesn’t just change lives,it develops us!

[David Ashbel @david_ashbel]

There’s absolutely no one God doesn’t have a plan for.
