Welcome to "The Jim Kroft Podcast" where we explore the intersection between Entrepreneurship and the Arts.
In this week's episode, I'm thrilled to welcome legendary "Indie Bootstrapper" and author Arvid Kahl.
If I could synthesize the human embodiment of what a person might look like at the mysterious confluence between entrepreneurship and creativity, it would be Arvid.
Having secured a million-dollar exit for his business, Arvid pivoted towards creativity, so far releasing two best-selling books and amassing 120,000 Twitter followers along the way.
Today’s story however delves beyond the surface of the success and metrics. In the Podcast, we explore:
- Transitioning from million-dollar exit to bestselling author
- Overcoming social isolation and burnout
- Arvid's content creation system
- Effective message distribution across platforms
- Finding the right audience to serve
- Building in public as a Creative or Solopreneur
Arvid packs today’s Podcast with actionable steps, practical tips and hard-hitting life lessons.
I also want to say THANK YOU to everyone for the wonderful launch of the Podcast! Your support helped it enter the Apple Podcasting Charts, which is just so energising. If you have a moment to rate or review, it would be a massive help as I try to keep the momentum rolling.
OK, time to jump to today's episode!

What is The Jim Kroft Podcast?
Welcome to my Podcast, where I interview founders and creatives, bridging the worlds of business and art.
My show explores the intersection of entrepreneurship and creativity and aims to be a beacon of hope for artists and solopreneurs navigating challenging moments in their careers.
The Solopreneur and Arts worlds are connected - but all too often, there is a lack of meaningful exchange between the sectors.
By learning from those who have thrived at these crossroads, I hope to pass on stories which give us renewed strength for our paths.
With a special interest in the opportunities of the digital economy and the creator world, this podcast deep dives into the challenge of building a life for oneself.
This is me, your host Jim, signing off - by saying:
WELCOME!
Jim
