Casting for THE ONE – We want Larry Chiang

by Larry Chiang on March 14, 2012

Larry Chiang conjures up momentum like Bruce Li. He mastered how to get effed in deals and fail forward. He can even take critical mocking negative energy and parlay it into forward momentum. MIT’s 40 years of entrepreneur woes were solved by a 35 minute lunch keynote and 22 pieces of french toast. Across the river, Harvard’s Harbus,  wrote, What They Don’t Teach You At Stanford Business School“. He refuses to put “NY Times best selling author” next to his name in bios and plods forward with his anti-marketing, marketing approach. His secrets about working the secret world of casting agents is Ga Ga Guaranteed to be an instant-classic.

Casting for THE ONE – We want Larry Chiang

By Larry Chiang

This is an email from Valerie Walbrandt at Kassting, Inc .com. It was sent 12-23-11

Hi Larry–


Thanks for all the text messages.  I know you are in Chicago now but I am attaching the guidelines that will help with the home video that is required. Judging by all your videos on youtube, I know this is going to be nothing short of outstanding!


The link for the application is: https://kasstinginc.com/THE-ONE

Please apply directly online- you do NOT need to download the application~

Also, keep a few things in mind as you apply:

–       When it asks, “Who is your casting producer” under “Show Questions,” please enter my name (Valerie). Do not leave it blank. This is how we find you!

–       Regarding photos: Please attach a couple of photos of yourself (one headshot, one body show, a shot without a shirt if you have one and let’s see some more doing things you enjoy =)


Have a safe and happy holiday!


Best,
Valerie

********************
Here are some ways to leverage a reality show, open casting call
-1- Blog about your experiences. Expose a world. Let someone get mentored from your experience

-2- Be helpful but don’t drop your boxer shorts at the first sign of a potential j-o-b, no matter how desperate you are. In this case Valerie was wanting a shirtless picture.

Oh no, I am not Aaron Patzer like that. And you’re not my VC.
(Inside joke: Aaron, CEO of Mint, took off his shirt for Rob Coneybeer, VC @ Shasta and GP, to hold Aaron’s shirt while Aaron climbed a tree at SXSW)

If you want a picture of me shirtless, you will have to PAY. Yes, I close deals via text message and asked Valerie to “paypal me”…

Which led to this Jan 9 email

Let me know about Pay Pal information…
