Episode 121
This episode is by request, on how to address the gremlin: "No one wants to hire my work, it's too out there/contemporary/weird."
What you'll hear:
- Hop on over to the waitlist for Cycle 28 of The Audacity Project, enrolling to next week for early adapters! 1:15
- There's 1 or 2 places left for Creatrix if you wanna come get warm and learn witchcraft with me 1:48
- The nature of a gremlin: they are all liars and are not based in empirical data 3:37
- EMPIRICAL DATA: Weirdos who have had lots of success (just to prove to your lizard brain that the gremlin is based on lies, and weird things get success too):
- You can expect a 5-10% response rate from cold solicitations (emails to casting@___.com type inboxes) 13:15
- Please stop trying to sound professional 14:38
- That response rate number above increases by 20% if you get a personal recommendation/introduction 16:00
- Before we ask if we're good enough for them, how about asking if they are good enough for you? 17:15
- Add to your Brag Book! 20:50
Don't go back to sleep.
