*gasp*
I finally finished everything with The Dumb. Actually finishing a project is like crack. Getting to that crack is the tough part, but with some potential bugs that might creep up I can honestly say I’m finally 100% done with TheDumb.org‘s street team management system.
The Dumb is a website that is uniquely organize to assist in getting street teamers for Psychostick all the materials they need to promote. Sounds simple, right? On paper it is simple, but the logic between real world promotion and managing the promotion is not simple. Plus there has to be incentive. “What’s in it for me?” When massing an army, or just leading a team of people, incentive is vital. Sometimes just acknowledgement is enough, but in the real world people need to see a light at the end of the tunnel for all their hard work. We’re coming up with more rewards for the hard work, but for now we’ll have backstage access, featured dumb t-shirts, and some others.
Now I can get back on track with the Psychostick DVD. I’m really looking forward to finishing that one. There’s been a ton of pressure to get this thing done but more important stuff keeps pulling me away. NOW, between recording and some occasional artwork, I can divert the majority of my energy towards this thing. Fucking finally. It’s coming folks so you just hang in there. I’m just glad to be crossing things off of my list.
Rawrb’s tip on actually being productive: Get all that to-do stuff out of your head and on to paper! Make a list and cross things out as you complete them. You’ll sleep better at night with all your ideas/to-dos/projects written down rather than swirling around in your head with the potential to be forgotten.
I had a couple more questions come in as well. I’ll make that a separate blog!
