How much research have you done Mark? I have spent seven years so far researching the issue. I am trying to produce a doc on the subject. When and if you catch up to where I am at on the facts, then your accusations might carry some weight. I also do not appreciate you turning the issue on hand into personal insults. Try to stay on the subject matter only.

undertakers don’t have the client looking over their houlder while they work.

you can’t see that is bad?? you will later if it continues to exist and grow. Be part of the solution instead of helping the problem. Maybe your clients will make you work for free and see how long you think it is okay. 🙂

John,
You need to first identify your market and the demographics. What businesses are in town and how can you can help them by providing your services. What sort of people are targeted? Young , old, white collar, blue collar, poor, rich, etc. You can sell BMW’s to low income people.You have to identify your competition in what they currently offer and what they charge. Then try to sell your services to everyone by doing it better for the same cost or lower. You may have to do some things for free or cheap at first to gain a reputation with referrals to follow.
All avenues to advertise may benefit you. You have to try some out and see the results. There is TV, radio, print, door to door, networking in the community with events like church functions, etc. Have some brouchures, VHS and DVD demos and biz cards. Everytime you go somewhere, try to ease into a conversation that will open up the opportunity for you to give them information on who you are, what you can do an offer. Most importantly, how you can help them benefit and apprecciate gains in their business or life if they let you work for them. If they use yor competition, try to point out how you might be better and why.
Best regards,

Jason,
I recently did five shows for a network that were HD and SD letterboxed. They required 21 minutes and I forgot the seconds. It depends on what the network and client wants. The editor had some freedom on the segments, but there had to be four segments somewhat close in duration with an open and close added in. The open had a fixed duration and the close was always adjusted to make up the difference in what was needed to reech the tota time. In other words the durations of credits could have been speeded up or slowed down. It just had to add up to 21:20 I believe. -

I forgot to add that I talked with Tim Wilson today and I am happy to see there are now two additional forums for low pay and jobs wanted.
