Yes, here is what you want to achieve – SKILL STACKING!

This is what will lead to massive SUCCESS!

This is when you have a MASTER PLAN to put your skills you will learn and master that relate to your entrepreneurial journey.

I will use my own journey as an example.

First, I had the opportunity to work in a record store where I learned the valuable skill of SELLING. Everyone SELLS whether they recognize it or not. You sell yourself on the reason that hot looking girl or guy should go out with you!

I became a rock DJ enabling me to use COMMUNICATION SKILLS I learned as a debater in college. If you are a student in either high school or college, get in a debating club. You will learn skills that you will use for the rest of your life.

Then I switched to radio news, where I learned how to use the 5Ws & 1H: WHO, WHEN, WHERE, WHAT, WHY & HOW. These are invaluable for whatever career you pursue!

I soon was asked to intern for the prestigious Post Newsweek TV Group, where I had a further opportunity to use the skills I had learned in radio news. In addition I learned to shoot and edit film for news stories. Later I co-owned two video production companies.

Then in grad school I learned advertising and public relations skills. I chose to pursue public relations as I had learned these skills before grad school interning with a genius in the public relations world – the late Barry Horenbein, who had Playboy, Dick Clark Enterprises, 3M, and the Seminoles has clients.

I opened my own public relations consulting business upon graduating and my first big client was the Original Marlboro Man, the late William Thourlby. I was his publicist for his best selling classic You Are What You Wear. I used my background in news to obtain 99 interviews by media over a six month period! As a former member of the media I knew how to get them to do the interview without being pushy.

I hope you are seeing how SKILL STACKING is so valuable!
