The easiest example I can use for this assignment is my sister's fiancé's Esports organization. His name is steve and he has started a new Esports organization called Lividity Gaming. As we all know the Esports industry is rapidly rising, the MLG (Major League Gaming) has registered qualified organizations that have teams that are considered professionals at what they do, game. He would like to work his organization to that status at the baby stages of the Esports industry. I had the pleasure of working for him as head Talent Scout, I headed the organization's scouting department and had to negotiate contracts and scout free agents via streaming platforms and tournaments in NYC. I wrote extensive reports on individuals I thought had the talent to bring attraction to the organization and value for tournaments in an effort to generate player revenue through our commission on contracts and endorsement deals. I have seen what this guy does for the good of the business and it amazes me how much social media focus there is when starting a business and looking for attraction. Times have changed and a lot of his money and time goes into ad creation and exposure to get the company out and about on the web.
I hope to get the proper guidance of what it takes to start your own business, as I would love to open up my own talent agency one day, and would love to know the steps, and guidance for preparation when doing so.
That is awesome that your sister's fiance has successfully made it into the Esports industry! As gaming becomes more and more popular, that industry has become very challenging to get into but also very profitable. It is so cool that you got the opportunity to work for him and see what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. You must have gained a lot of valuable knowledge from that experience. Hopefully your sister's fiance continues to do well with his endeavor!
ReplyDeleteHey Nicholas,
ReplyDeleteThis is really cool, I have heard that Esports industry is really growing fast and since we are in the midst of COVID-19, most of the people are spending more of their time playing video games and other different eports activities. So, for you to get an experience in your sister's fiance's business in this industry is very valuable (in my opinion). I read that you want to open your own talent agency, I hope you succeed in that cuz I am sure you have got the headstart from experiencing how to manage the scouting organization in your sister's fiance's business.
