1) My first interview was with a friend who used to have his own sports news reporting platform. His platform was specifically for the audience I am targeting, sports fans that are looking for humor. He actually turned it into a nice blog/social media platform and it landed him his current job. His current job is with none other than Barstool Sports. This is obviously the aim I am going for but with more of a television show focus. I know him through my dad's friend's son, he isn't someone I am in contact with often, but was able to give me great insight and likes the premise of my idea and my ultimate goal and vision for my company.
2) This person I messaged via LinkedIn lives in New York and actually took a sports management class online with the same platform I used. I found them on the alumni list for that platform via LinkedIn. This person has had a tremendous amount of experience in various areas, from working for ESPN to working for the sports collum in New York Times, and now working as an SNY journalist covering the Mets, Devils, and more. This would bring a ton of experience specifically in the field of journalism for my company as well as having a tremendous amount of professional achievements.
3) This person I met through twitter, and he currently is a college student at BU. He is involved in producing. He has had a solid experience interning with the Jimmy Fallon show in NYC and is also from Long Island. He will clearly bring the experience and value to our team for production purposes and making everything mesh on camera. While doing that he will be able to help exploit the show and its image and brand.
Ultimately, all of these people bring a certain skill set to the team that is needed, put everything together and it can bring to life my idea for a show, and possibly, even more, to bring the value of the company to the ceiling of the potential it has.
