I am excited to announce that Wild Rej Productions is taking the next step towards our long term goals. We have numerous projects in various stages of development, and we are starting a new program for anyone who wants to participate. It’s called “Fun to be a Fan” and here’s what it is… Anyone who becomes a fan of Wild Rej Productions on Facebook OR signs up for our email newsletter will be listed in the credits of our next film. We are prepping the film now for production. We’d really like to make it fun for people who are fans of what we do.
Furthermore, this website will be drastically changing soon. The company has grown, and the site is going to have different needs in the future. We will still offer great production services include video and audio, and we are going to move towards producing original stories.
We are excited to move forward!

I have been tweeting a lot about Crossfit recently, and I thought I would post a link to an interview with the founder in order to answer a lot of the curious readers of this blog.

Why post about Crossfit, an exercise regimen?
Good question.
I love books. I love to read. But I love to buy books. It used to be much worse when I would attend used book sales at libraries.
87 books.
37 dollars.
102 books.
45 dollars.
Those are actual numbers, by the way.

Continuing on the theme of sales…
A YES is not always good.
And a NO is not always bad.
In fact, there are a few things better than a yes…
You are a salesman. Or a saleswoman. Guaranteed.
You might not know it, but it’s true. Everything we do involves selling in some way. If you’re a filmmaker, you have to sell your ideas to the audience. You have to sell your movie so it can get made and distributed.
We sell every day of our lives. There’s no getting around it. And most of us are not good at all.
I have a my share of sales over the years, and I just thought I would provide a few pointers.
