It’s the Big one
Posted on August 28, 2008 - Filed Under Business |
The other night I turned on the television to watch another “Self help show”. It was my first time watching this show. First impressions carry a lot of weight. With that being said, the show “The Big Idea” actually impressed me.
For those who may not know, “The Big Idea” is a show hosted by Donny Deutsch who is some big entrepreneurial type. Co-hosting are three experts, all high end entrepreneurs who easily make me look like a stick in the mud. During the hour, they field calls and questions from small, struggling entrepreneurs on how to break through.
Yes, it’s hard to get real quality advice within a space of 3 or 4 minutes. But the quality of that advice is astounding. Come to find out, the three experts really study the business models of the callers before they hit the studio. “Hit the ground running” is a phrase which is applicable.
At the end of every segment, Donny connected the person needing help with someone who could help them. Some lady was working hard to move her beauty products from local to national and Donny connects her with a chief editor from Cosmopolitan magazine. Another lady has fresh marainades for meat and Donny not only gets her talking with a VP from Whole Foods but also helps connect her with a VP of a national food distributor.
I’m always a big supporter of anyone trying to improve themselves, try new things. But to be in a position where you can help others achieve their dreams . . . ultimate respect.
It’s nice to know there’s something of quality to actually watch on tv.
The other night, the writer of this song was on. After this amazing commercial, he’s had problems breaking into the big leagues. This commercial is the best!
