THE MUST HAVE GADGET FOR ANY ENTEPRENEUR

As actors we know how important it is to be connected at all times because your business (so also your money) depends on being able to jump at an opportunity when it presents itself. That might mean something as simple as being on time to an impromptu meeting with a producer in an hour (but how do you find your way there on time?) or sending your resume and head-shot to a casting director while you are at the gym, or even simply answering the phone.

Not to worry though, the rate at which technology is evolving in order to make OUR life easier is astounding. And that’s just perfect for people like us who need to be alert 24/7 for our big shot! Here is a list of things all actors need to be alert:

1. A cell phone.This is a no-brainer. In the 21st century there really is very few people who don’t own one or two of these. Just remember to always have it on, charged and with a voicemail set up.
2. A laptop. There really is no telling when you might need to email a resume and head-shot or even receive a script to look over while you are out of the house.
3. A GPS device. Knowing important details like how far a place is and how long it will take you to get there factoring in traffic, accidents..etc is a vital tool to prevent you from being late ever again. Not to mention those of us who might get lost on the way!
4. A day-planner. To write in all those great opportunities and never forget, or simply remember when you have to pay your classes, rent…etc.
5. An address book. Don’t be caught off-guard without it when you need it. Its one of the worst feelings ever.

So obviously you cant just jug all this aroung with you when you are going to the grocery store or the gym!!! The solution?

iPhone, Blackberry or any other PDA!!!

It’s the all-in-one solution. My personal favorite is the iPhone hands down, but whatever works best for you. This is THE best investment you will ever make. Having email, phone, GPS, day-planner…etc in the same palm sized device is what people have been asking for and now its at an affordable price for the general public! So do yourself a favor and invest in one so you are never unreachable. The next call can be your big break!!!!!!
