Lot’s and Lot’s of great information.

I’m hocked can’t wait until tonight

I’m especially appreciative of the “raise your hand” housekeeping action. Whoever came up with that should be elected to the Teleclass Hall of Fame! What a great way to bring order and structure to this type of venue, where in the past, numbers of people try and speak at the same time, wasting time.

Well, just got back from the library where I checked out my audiobooks and now I’m off to the periodontist. ( I know, too much information.)

Will check back in tonight for “getting things done”.

I did have one remaining question which was to reprise the three parts or ‘hats’ of running a business, regarding the responsibilities of the ‘entrepreneur – manager – and craftsman’. I have the category and job outline straight on the ‘craftsman’ but as to the entrepreneur and manager, aside from the concept to have a business in the first place, I think I’m blurring their duties a bit. Is this the entrepreneur who does the marketing and promoting – and it is the manager amasses and manipulates the components – the nuts and bolts direction of how the product is accomplished?

In any case, I am getting a lot out of the class and working on the assignments as well! I still kind of wish I could hear Harlan a bit louder over my speakerphone though! I am typing notes as the class is progressing(because my handwriting is like a doctor’s!) and I’m avoiding that special kink-in-the-neck of cramping the receiver between your shoulder and chin!

I asked the question last night about time management to balance the various aspects of a VO career, and the other question about whether you’ll discuss financial software in an upcoming program.  I am so impressed not only with your knowledge, but also the gracious, respectful, and often humorous way you answer everyone’s questions in turn.  Summoning up the courage to ask a question in an unseen forum is huge for me, but when the answers are genuine and thoughtful, it sets up a true give and take learning environment.  That’s incredibly hard to do when you don’t even get to see who you are talking to!  I marvel that you two are pulling it off beautifully!

Lastly, Dan, please remember to send us the email link about your discussion email with Ann de Wigg.  (You asked to be reminded last night.) 

I’m looking forward to tonight’s session, and am getting onto my FB to join our newly formed group!
