  • 13206: What's The Right Size For Your [Show] Business?
    Nov 19 2024

    Hey there, hero!

    Do you get the number of auditions you want? On-camera, VO, whatever.

    You good?

    Or do you constantly pursue more? Is growing your audition stream an endless pursuit? The highest priority?

    I think everyone is different. And there's a trend in business that informs this. It's variously called "10X-ing," "adding zeroes," and "blowing things up."

    Whatevs.

    I don't personally want more auditions than I am getting now - I'm good with my current level. But some people would question why I'm not pushing like crazy to "10X my business."

    I'm good. I feel like I'm at just the right level. I don't need more.

    But that's me. What about you? Is the size of your [show] business a metric for your success? Your self-worth and self-image? With "bigger" equal to "better," and that you will never have enough opportunities?

    How to do you feel about your level of opportunities? What pressure do you feel? What would ultimately make you happy? Let me know in the comments below.

  • 13205: Is It Ever Too Late To Promote Something You've Created In The Past?
    Nov 12 2024

    Hey there, hero!

    We work really hard to create stuff. Really great stuff.

    And after a while, we tend to forget just how valuable that stuff is.

    And...in addition...how valuable our superpower, creating great stuff, actually is.

    This episode is dedicated to reminding you that your output is your product. Your books, your TV shows, your podcast episodes, your films, your audiobook titles...they are all worth remembering in your plans for both holiday promotion and promotion at other times during the year.

    What products have you created (or helped to create) that are worth reminding your audience about? Feel free to post links to the things you want to promote in the comments below.

  • 13204: Scary Versus Exciting
    Nov 5 2024

    Hey there, hero!

    When you get ready to do something new, what wells up inside you emotionally?

    Is there fear? Being scared?

    Or is there electricity? Being excited?

    And how does that affect how you approach it?

    The two will likely co-exist in a sweet spot: instead of being so scared that I am immobilized, I'm...cautious.

    And instead of being so excited that I ignore taking reasonable steps and precautions to maximize success...I'm jacked and happy.

    And it feeds me from both directions. What about you?

    How does it feel when you face tackling something new? Scary? Exciting? Treacherous? A bit embarrassed? Some combination of those? Does it depend how different it is from what you're doing now? Let me know in the comments below.
