What’s it take to make it in Hollywood?
A question we get nine times a day.
Turns out, the answer may lie in a post from Zen Master, psychotherapist, and Karate black-belt Mary Jaksch.
There is DEFINITELY Something About Mary…
We discovered Mary when we joined the A-List Blogger Club (yes, that’s a rare affiliate link we’re proudly promoting…check it out.)
She’s a firecracker of a woman, and if we had half her energy we’d own Hollywood by now.
While we were exploring her blog Goodlife Zen (one of many fueled by her writing) we found a mysterious post on developing a crucial ability you better have if you want to succeed in Hollywood.
What is it?
The ability to be productive.
Every Business is a Numbers Game
Think about it: sales men knock on a lot of doors to sell a vacuum cleaner.
Hollywood is no different. You have to pitch a lot of great projects to get just one of them off the ground (and yes, they ALL have to be great. Pitch a lousy project and you won’t be invited back for a second round.)
Planing to sell your one big idea to Hollywood and get rich?
It’s time for a new plan.
Only by consistently pitching high quality projects in great numbers can you begin to hope for Hollywood success.
In short, you have to be…
Productive Like a Ninja
