Want to be a Producer? Learn to be a politician first.
I stumbled on an interesting "How To" on Squidoo the other day. The title of the Squid? How To Become a Politician.
Some of the tips? Fundraise all the time, have a budget and stick to it, rudeness is always wrong and is not the same as confidence, etc.
Sounds like similar tips for being a Producer, if you ask me. Read them here.
Leaders of any industry and entrepreneurs of any type require a lot of the same characteristics.
When determining the type of Producer you want to be, look at leaders in all areas of business, from politics to poker. They share similar traits.
And you should too.
