Another tough one to swallow (but sometimes the Truth hurts)…

Another RandomStarMusic.com Critic’s insight…

With knowing the difference between these two, you’re ahead of the rest…

Just in case you’re tired of hearing what I have to say, here’s a Critic from RandomStarMusic.com…

Without this TidBit…you’re just spinning your wheels and going nowhere.  Let’s move forward with TidBit#4…

May not like this one too much, but I wouldn’t steer you wrong…=)

Advice TidBit #2…

Here is the first piece advice that I have for Indie Talent (Artists/Models) in the journey from beginning to SUCCESS: TidBit #1…

…is the ability to create CONTROL within and for their company.  After being absent for a year from this blog, I’ve been gone doing just that.

Random Star Music is no different than any other company out there.  You have your highs, and you have your lows; there’s ups and downs; there are the “when will this happen” moments and there are the “OMGoodness, can I keep up with this” thoughts; and every once and awhile, if you are persistent in being productive, you’ll have a situation where someone will offer a helping hand.  In the case if the “helping hand”, be cautious if you’re accepting the assistance for the NOW or for the LATER.  Here’s why… Read the rest of this entry »

Social Media sites…you gotta love ‘em.  So much in fact that I believe the time will come where we start to hate ‘em. 

Why?  Because they’re going to die out?  Not necessarily.  Because everybody is doing it?  Eh, gets annoying for companies who have no need for such a site (like a tire company) but not a strong enough reason, perse’, to plan Social Media’s demise.  Then why?  Why will we start hating them?  Advertisments!

The Ad-based only structure is the most annoying setup for a social networking site.  You have ads to the left, to the right, up top, down below, popping up in the middle of what you’re reading, survey of stupid sh*t that you could care less about, etc.  You can’t sneeze without seeing an ad; blink without accidently clicking one because now they move around; or stay excited about the initial visit due to the damn “commercial-break, screen-sized movie” ad before getting to what you’re visiting the site for!  However, in their defense (of some) these sites need a way to generate revenue to survive.  They have costs, just like any other business, that has to be paid monthly, semi-monthly, or annually.  So I’m not bashing their stategy, I’m just asking for more individuals who own/supervise this type of company to BE CREATIVE!

Be creative, work a little, hell…stress a little over “what the hell is this company about?”.  But considering we’re in the “microwave” era where society suffers from the “Givemenow” epidemic (myself included sometimes), this may be a far stretch bordering miracle request.  “Why make a million dollars actually having to work, when I can copy-cat?”  To some, that’s the same as:  Why make a buck working construction in 110 degree heat, when I can make that same money in air conditioning and at a desk?  Touche’….kinda.
