Los Angeles, NYC and more

It occurred to me today while people were discussing CineGear on the call that it might be fun and productive to do an in-person meetup in the LA area at some point this summer. Seems like we'd have a critical mass of folks in this greater region. The same might be said of NYC. I wind up traveling out there for jobs a few times a year and it would be cool to talk shop with anyone who's around if schedules permit.

July + August 30-Day Founder Sprint Pricing

Quick heads up: This summer will be the last chance to join the Founder Sprint at “founder pricing.” I’m restructuring a lot of the ecosystem this fall, including launching the new Solo Studio System and will have to adjusting pricing. So for July and August, I’m actually dropping the Sprint price down to $500 for anyone who wants to jump in before that happens. The Founder Sprint is for people who are serious about repositioning themselves, building a stronger client pipeline, developing offers, improving communication, and building a more intentional creative business. It’s not really a “course.”It’s much more hands-on and strategic. If you’ve been sitting on the fence, this is probably the best opportunity to jump in before things change later this year. Happy to answer questions or talk through whether it’s a fit. Here’s a link for more information on the program https://c.directorscut.studio/group-sprint
