I recently did a video about My Entertainment Business: The Journey, and I mentioned three main goals that I wanted done by the end of this year (2015). I sat down and I really thought about what I want to happen and where I wanted to be by the end of this year, when it comes to my dreams. I wanted to use the SMART goal approach to make sure everything is done right, effectively and accurately.
For those who might not know what SMART goals are, it is
(Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic Timely). I want to make sure I
understand exactly what is expected and I don't deviate from my main goals out
of confusion. I want to make sure I can
actually do them and they are something that is realistic and not something
that would awesome to do but not possible. I also want to set time limits for
them, that way I will know that they are getting done, when they need to get
done. I love marking things of lists. I am going to make my list on paper with
sublist to help me out.
Okay! My three main personal goals are:
Learn and understand as much as I can about the
Entertainment Business.
Start my Business
Be the best talent company out there for my talent
(geez)! ok that one may seem a little
much considering everyone wants to be the best of the best. What I really meant
was I want to be the best in my talents eyes as well as my eyes.
Let me remind you that these are my personal goals. Not my
business goals but just goals that I have for myself personally to get to my
business goals. Let's break each of these goals down and let me explain them
better.
The first goal, learn and understand the entertainment
business, is something that is going to be an on going process. That process is
going to be on going until well after I start my business. I want to make sure
I have at least the basic knowledge of the industry and that is why I am going
to Full Sail University to get my feet wet and build my business portfolio as
well as to learn what I need to learn.
Another way I will get to understand and learn about this industry is to
go out and do interviews with mainly talent but as well as talent buyers,
whether they are video interviews or not. The best way to learn is to
physically go out and do it. I want to know what musicians, dancers,
actor/actresses, and models are wanting, thinking and what needs to be done
about some of their concerns, and how I can dive into the root of their
problems and make it easier for them to pursue their career. Like I said
before, " My mission is to minimize bad experiences and threats and
maximize profit."
The second goal is to start the business. I read this
article call, Why You Really Should Just Launch Your Business Already. Click
Here For the article, but what I really held on to after I read it, was the
author saying, "Your business is never going to be perfect in your
eyes," and "You Won’t Know What Problems Need to Be Fixed Until it’s
Out in the World."-By Megan Broussard, 2013. I think what Megan said is
true. I could probably spend years trying to make everything perfect, just the
way I want and it still wont be the exact way I want it to be, which is
perfect. Another thought is how can I try to make it perfect if I don't get out
there and put it to the test. I wouldn't know what is working and what need to
be fix or flat out eliminated.
The third and final goal is to find what is wrong and fix
it, which in my eyes is being the best company out there. I want to try new things that other companies
haven't tried. I have many ideas that I have not seen implemented that should
seriously need to be or at least tried. After 5 years of research I finally
figured out how I can apply them to my business. Trust me it wasn't easy but I
mastered my ideas on paper, the real testament is to master it through my
company. I have written every possible outcome down so I can be prepared for
what could possible not work.
Those are my goals that I will be working towards. In my
other coming post I will be breaking these down in to subgoals and putting time
limits on them to make it easier to overcome. These goals and subgoals a put
into place will lead up to completing my main goals.
