What are the top three things affecting our industry today?
Politics. We are in the business of entertainment and profit. When political opinions start flying you ostracize those who have differing viewpoints and the bottom line accordingly. One can profess to be an artist or working because of the love of the work but it truly is about economics.
Economics. The cash flow is substantially choked by those who can afford the best lawyers. The trickle down theory is not working.
Failure to survey and understand what the public wants for entertainment. We foist acts that may suit the East or West Coast but that precludes a substantial portion of the country who possess as much wealth. Leave out Denver, Dallas and Chicago and you have walked away from millions. Better understand what the public wants and you will enjoy greater profits....
