Networking

If you were like me, you don’t know anyone in the business. As detailed in several magazine articles, I used LinkedIn to find contacts at every major network. I also used it to talk to potential sponsors. For example, an advanced search in LinkedIn for Fox Television yields very useful information:

The search showed me over 261 current Fox employees and 8% had the title of producer. I can see new hires and anyone who has been recently promoted. Give it a try, you will be very impressed.
