I just completed the fourth presentation of a live webinar training on sound system tuning.

But I don't want to leave those people out in the cold so I have gathered all of the questions and I am going to answer all of here on the podcast.
I have organized them into sections, so today we are going to talk about the Why of sound system tuning. Because whether your event is a small corporate event or a large-scale theatrical production, why tune a system at all?

Welcome to Lesson 12! Lees meer
If you missed the previous lessons, please go back to that email or head over to the course page. http://sounddesignlive.com/from-the-sound-up/
Notes
- The audio industry is a little like the mafia. In each country and city there is a circle of trust and to get inside, you need a sponsor. I have found that the quickest way in, is to build relationships with colleagues because they are the most sympathetic to your situation. They've been there and they want to help you.
- We should always go for the most effective form of communication, in person.
- Our first priority is to get them into a 1-on-1 meeting.
- Don't give up.
- Tell them what you want and ask them what they think the best way to go about getting it would be.
- Before you leave always ask: Can you introduce me to one other person? Is it ok if I follow up with you if I have any more questions later?
- A week later, close the loop.
- Update their record in your spreadsheet with every interaction.Homework
1. Reach out to 3 new colleagues.
2. What is the best way to reach out to new potential clients?

From the Sound Up ✈️ Lesson 11: How do you make friends as an adult?
30 maart 2017 · 5 min
Welcome to Lesson 11! Lees meer
If you missed the previous lessons, please go back to that email or head over to the course page. http://sounddesignlive.com/from-the-sound-up/
Notes
- When you're young, making friends is easy, more natural. But when you are an adult, it's harder.
- Here's why this is important: every time I have moved I have been focused on finding work and a place to live. Because I feel like if I can get that taken care of, I'll be set. But the thing that always creeps up on me, which I always forget about, is my network, because at home, it's something I always took for granted. So then what happens 3 or 4 months down the road is I end up getting depressed. And this is a killer. It will stop all work.
- So here's my new plan for my move to Minneapolis: Instead of focusing on work and housing, I'm going to flip the script and focus on making friends. Crazy, right? Because here's the thing, if I have a supportive network of people that care for me, I can weather any storm. If my business tanks or I can't find an apartment, I might feel bad for a bit, but through the support of my network, I'll dust myself off and get back up again.
- So my agenda for building relationships in Minneapolis is not to have an agenda. Now, I am going to try to intentionally meet the right people, but after I meet them, there's no plan, except to be as curious about them as possible and listen to what they have to say.
- I'll tell them what I'm about, which is going to be super clear and easy because of all of the work at did at the beginning of this course. Then I'll just let the the relationship develop naturally and see how we can support each other.
- So what I'm going to do, to get that started, is contact everyone on my list, tell them that I'm moving, and ask them if they can connect me to one new person in my new city. If they work in pro audio, or the performing arts, or event production, great, but at this point, I'm just looking for friends.Homework
