Moment #35 // There are many ways to end up in the C-suite. You can just choose to work hard, and wait for your promotions. But, in larger organizations, this can take many years.

I recently saw a play called Women Playing Hamlet (by William Missouri Downs) that explores the idea of playing roles others cast us in versus choosing the roles we play and inhabiting them fully through full knowledge of the self. In this episode I ask the question, why do we hesitate to cast ourselves in the roles of our choosing? Why do so many of us continue to play it safe by not stepping into our identities as writer/musician/artist/etc.? How long are we going to continue on playing the roles other people have chosen for us, or ones we think we should be playing, before we find the courage to cast ourselves in a role for our own fulfillment?My episode on Hollywood comeback storiesMy blog post Breaking Into the Chocolate FactoryTranscriptContact meWould You Like to Support My Work?Sign up for my newsletter!Buy me a coffee!

Breaking into the attractions industry is no simple task, especially if you have built your professional career in a non-related industry. However, for those who change careers into the industry, they find that there are both benefits and challenges to bringing an outside perspective into an industry that historically has promoted from within. This also may require those who have always worked in the industry to reframe their mindset to embrace and welcome individuals who leave a different industry to join a new network of AttractionPros. In this “mailbag” episode, Matt and Josh discuss the value of transferable skills, methods of breaking into the industry, and the three keys to networking. Transferable Skills Every industry has its own unique, uncomparable skills that are required to get the job done. In the attractions industry, there is a place for every skill imaginable! Whether it's figuring out how to rig chairs onto a robotic arm, tricking guests into thinking they teleported into a spaceship, or finding a new way to go about guest situations, there are so many ideas and skills required to further improve our industry. Expertise leads to a foot in the door. Few people come into this industry blind, as many people have the experience as a consumer and also their previous scope of work. By capitalizing on those previous experiences, your transferable skills can bring you into the industry and break you in. After you get started, you'll need to learn the terminology along the way and stand on the strong shoulders your previous experiences have given you. Breaking Into the Industry The attractions industry has a strong history of valuing new ideas. Being able to take certain ideas or technology from previous experiences and collide them with the established technology of the industry can create unparalleled attractions that pull guests from every corner of the world. By marketing your unique skill set with these new ideas, breaking into the industry can be very simplified. Innovation only occurs when someone brings about change. By using your transferable skills and new ideas to your advantage, you can find that breaking point to put yourself in the industry. However, this must be exercised with caution, as the mark made must be made properly in an industry like this. Show patience and be friendly, and you'll find out that the people you talk to always know somebody that can help you out, whether that be in the lens of networking or your new job. Three Keys to Networking To build a career in the attractions industry, networking is extremely important. Even today, if you don't connect yourself with the people who are creating these experiences, you will struggle finding a place where you can release your talent to its fullest potential. The secret to networking involves being known, liked, and trusted.. These three keys are what people define you by, and when you fill all the criteria, people will want you on their team. When it comes to being known, you'll need to initiate conversations. By having a unique trait or scheduling meetings, it will get those talks started. This will help you stand it in a crowded space and get you recognized. When it comes to being liked, being personal and making the conversation about who you're talking to can make a great first and lasting impression. By creating that relationship, people will want to talk to you again, and that opens up doors for the future. As for trust, make sure you're not just networking for personal gain. It's crystal clear when people come up and are talking to somebody just to get use out of them. By showing your genuine self, it increases the likelihood that people will trust you and will want to talk to you again. There is so much more to talk about when it comes to breaking into the industry and networking, and we want to hear your thoughts! Feel free to share on Twitter and LinkedIn, and tag @AttractionPros.

Matt Stocker is an industry-leading talent acquisition professional in the sports industry leading employee recruitment for one of the most exciting brands in the world. Don't know a lot about FC Cincinnati? That's okay...outside of the sports business industry, many don't. But inside the walls of sports jobs we widely recognize "FCC" as a growing, exciting, and ground-breaking brand in the industry. FC Cincinnati is playing the role of "innovator" and "disruptor" inside of how teams operate as a people-driven business. Matt tells a wonderfully detailed story of how he left the world of sales for the NHL's Florida Panthers to work in the department of employee endeavors. After 4 years of grueling and hard-core sales for the Southern-most hockey team in the NHL, Matt converted from the Panthers sales team to human resources. This is a fairly rare transition in the industry and shows the beautiful story of somebody BREAKING INTO the industry, then finding their best use of their skills in another department. In early 2021, Matt made the move over to FC Cincinnati to play a larger role in their talent acquisition efforts, hiring over 400+ people as the brand expanded.

Everything You Need To Know About Video In Ecommerce We've touched on it before in a previous episode, but video creation for ecommerce is just too important to ignore! In this episode of The Ecom Show, we're honored to welcome Allan Glanfield from Canada, an accomplished video marketing strategist at Bellwether X. If you take a look at their website, you'll see impressive visuals, engaging content, and top-notch music to go with it as it becomes increasingly more apparent that these guys are damn good at what they do! Sit in as Daniel and Allan discuss what it takes to craft a story and everything you need to know about video in ecommerce in addition to: ✔️ The importance of storytelling ✔️ Evolution of video advertising ✔️ The right time to start thinking about videos for your business ✔️ How to get started in the video marketing world ✔️ Subtle differences and helpful hacks for creatives in Q4 It's All About the Story We heard it from our good friend Ian Garlic a few weeks back, and Allan drives the point home this time. You can have the best equipment and actors, but if your product and your story aren't good you won't succeed even with the best in the business. It can even be frustrating when a simple concept out-performs a “million-dollar idea,” but that's the nature of the trade!Don't get caught up in the best technology. Just learn lightning basics, help people learn about the product so they can make an informed decision, and above all else, tell a compelling story! The Times are Changing Back in the day, a room full of writers would painstakingly develop a winning idea for a television commercial, with one shot to make it work. These days, it makes more sense to create lots of videos and test them to see what performs best.You could even argue that the conventional advertisement has been completely replaced by “viral videos,” unboxing videos, customer video testimonials, and simple videos. People also think these videos are only suitable for social media, but you can find them on landing pages, product pages, and even email flows post-purchase! Are You Ready? People often wonder when they should start thinking about creating engaging video content or hiring someone to do it for them. Allans says that you should worry about that right out of the gates! It's never too early to start thinking about content, and without beautiful images, captivating videos, and other content, your website will be just an unremarkable framework! You actually save yourself a headache in the long run if you map out your creatives early on, even if you have a tight budget to start. Breaking Into the Industry Video marketing gurus come from all different backgrounds, so there's no wrong way to get going if you think it might be your calling! Allan mentioned that comedians make for great writers, and having a sense of humor is a must if you want to create compelling advertisements that move people to action! You can also start as a videographer or photographer like Allan and build up years of experience learning strategy, marketing, data analytics, and the other essential aspects of media buying, but it takes time. Q4 vs. Rest of Year Surprisingly, the story takes a back seat this time of year to more concise, simple product-focused videos. It's buying and gifting season, so people are more worried about seeing a product and learning about it and less about the brand it comes from.It's also important to capture attention in the first few seconds of a video because there is lots of competition during November and December. Use nifty camera angles, engage the audience directly with gestures, and make sure you get some eyes on that video you've worked so hard to create!

This is the first of a new sub-series for the Design Break podcast where I go through and answer a series of old questions I've been asked over social media. This first episode (008 of the main podcast) answers the question "What do you do if you get discouraged or frustrated with your work?"
In this episode of the Design Break podcast, I discuss how being a Jack-of-All-Trades is a positive attribute to your creative career and not a detriment to your growth. When it comes to finding a job or doing freelance work, having a range of different skills allows you to diversify both the work you do as well as your bank account. The more skills you know, the more things you can do, the more of an impact you can make in the creative world.
Lyn Ford says that breaking into storytelling isn't quite the description that fits the beginnings of her career. It was more like leaping off the edge of a cliff, with all the materials to build a strong glider that would carry her wherever she should go, but no blueprint or directions on how to build the thing.
