George Spillmann: Mistakes New Business Owners Make

As an experienced entrepreneur, George Spillmann has had the opportunity to work alongside many professionals, including a lot of people who are new to the world of business. Striking out on your own can be intimidating at the best of times, so it is important that you do everything that you can in order to give yourself the best chance of success. These mistakes are ones that are commonly made by new business owners and must be avoided at all times.

Creating A Poor Business Plan

The business plan that you create not only needs to cover every area of the company, including the finances and the level of competition that it will face, but must also be fluid enough to be adjusted if need be. Make sure the plan is concise and easy to follow, while still also containing all of the detail that you are going to need in order to run a business successfully. Otherwise you may find that the company starts to veer off course.

Poor Marketing

It is often easy to overlook marketing for the company when it is first founded, especially if your focus is placed on the service-end of the business. Unfortunately, delivering quality is only going to get you so far and you need to make an effort to also gain exposure in order to draw more customers. Failure to consider a good marketing strategy may result in slow business growth, making it even harder to survive those difficult initial years.

Trying To Do It All

Very few people are able to do absolutely everything that is involved in running a business, which is one of the reasons why George Spillmann has become talented with effective delegation. If you know that you don’t have the time to do everything that needs doing, find people who can help you.

George Spillmann: Tips For Small Businesses

George Spillmann is an entrepreneur in California who has set up a number of business and led them to success. Starting a new business is difficult at the best of times, particularly for smaller businesses due to the various difficulties involved in terms of locating investors and getting the ventures off the ground. These handy tips should prove useful for anybody who is looking to set up a small business but doesn’t know where to start.

Focus On Finances

Small businesses tend to run into trouble when their owners fail to focus on the money that is coming in and out of the company. Operating on a smaller budget means that there is far less room for errors in your accounting, so make sure you are vigilant or that you hire a professional to do it for you. Otherwise, you may end up spending far more than you should, putting the business in jeopardy in the process.

Network Constantly

The business world is as much about who you know as it is what you know, which means that there are plenty of opportunities out there that will pass you by if you don’t make the effort to network and meet other professionals in your industry. Make use of LinkedIn and any other social media sites that can connect you with business influencers. You should also make sure to attend any local business events and conferences in an effort to get your name out there.

Deliver Consistency

George Spillmann always makes it a point to deliver on everything that he promises to as a business owner. Make sure that you establish your product or service and develop a reputation for quality. Once that reputation is in place, make sure you are consistent at all times so that you keep your customers loyal.

George Spillmann: Benefits of Playing Basketball

While studying to develop the skills that would go on to be of benefit during his later career, George Spillmann also played basketball at the collegiate level. In addition to being one of the most popular and exciting sports in the United States, basketball offers its participants a range of different benefits, all of which can be useful in life away from the court.

Improving Teamwork Skills

If you are unable to operate well as part of a team, it is likely that you are going to struggle when playing basketball. While individual skill is certainly important, your teammates will also be relying on you to be in the right place at the right time, regardless of if you are in offence or defense. Failure to work with your teammates as a cohesive unit can lead to lost games. Thankfully, the game teaches you just how to work well in a team and these skills can also be transferred over to the world of work.

Better Physical Fitness

Basketball involves undertaking a lot of physical activities that will lead to your body being in better shape if you play for an extended period of time. The constant running around the court will improve your cardiovascular conditioning, while regular jumping also builds muscle strength and stamina in your legs. Improved physical fitness, particularly when it comes to your cardiovascular health, will mean you are at lower risk of suffering from heart disease and other potentially fatal ailments.

The Social Aspect

George Spillmann made many friends while playing basketball in college, many of whom shared similar interests to him. The benefits of a good social life should never be underestimated and basketball gives you the opportunity to meet new people and develop healthy bonds, allowing you to get more out of life and also offering you support in times of need.

New York Times: Turkish Edition from Quba Michalski on Vimeo.

This is our one minute advertisement for the launch of Turkish Edition of The New York Times.

We constructed typographic versions of the most recognizable landmarks in Manhattan and Istanbul, and created a compact tour taking the audience from the New York Harbor all the way to the Bosphorus. Actual pages from the first issue of the newspaper were used to create the textures used in the scenes. The financial news page became NYSE and Wall Street, entertainment news turned into Times Square, and so on.

The result is 60 seconds of typographic goodness, mastered in 2K.

George Spillmann: Business Skills That Foster Greater Growth

George Spillmann has built an impressive career by using a few business skills that have gotten him through tough times. Spillmann works in Roseville, California, for an automotive business. He is a dedicated professional who’s learned the value of hard work and staying focused on the big picture. In addition to growing his management acumen, Spillmann knows the following skills can help a budding executive.

Communication

Many people think they are effective communicators in the workplace. The truth is, though, that effective communication isn’t attained in a single day. It takes time to communicate effectively, and its during periods of stress that the worst comes out. It’s easy to recap the Sunday night football game with your colleagues at the water cooler, but it takes skill to explain the work flow diagram that illustrates the company’s security infrastructure.

Team player

At almost position, working with other individuals on projects is almost a necessity. It takes a lot of patience to get along with people and work towards the attainment of goals. Some people find it easy the first time. Others, well, need to practice a little more to become good team players. For business executives though, it’s imperative that you work on listening to other peoples’ opinions and being patient.

Good writing skills

At the top echelons of the company, a lot of information is disseminated in written form. You don’t need Pulitzer-winning writing skills to work, but the quality of your emails and reports can’t be wanting. Effective writing comes with practice, as it demonstrates that you care about the recipient(s) of the message.

Market knowledge

Regardless of the product or service that your company specializes in, it’s important to understand the target customers, their needs, and how the company works to meet those needs.

George Spillmann has valuable business knowledge that he constantly shares with his employees. itiesMV�-OB

AD Sports TV - Directors Cut from Frame. on Vimeo.

Les Folies Design Haus in Dubai, UAE commissioned Frame to create eight over the top idents for the re-launch of the Abu Dhabi sports channel AD Sports TV.

In a collaboration with Obeida Sidani, Executive Creative Director at Les Folies, Director and Creative Director Anders Schroder at Frame came up with the idea of having top athletes of various sports performing in the streets with the iconic buildings of night-time Abu Dhabi as the backdrop. As they are performing the surroundings would transform into their respective playing fields.

The team at Frame creative directed, conceptualized and animated the transforming floors under the athlete and the particle systems around him.

Anders wanted to explore what the opposite of the ever so popular organic film look using handheld, vintage lenses to create shallow depth of field and flat grading would look like. He wanted to achieve a look that was almost synthetic and videogame-like with extreme angles and razor sharp infinite focus but all achieved in-camera. A look that would be synonymous with high performance rather than the performers themselves.

Being fascinated by the HDR look typically associated with commercial sports photography, Anders suggested to re-create this look BUT in live action. The technique is based on the idea of shooting with multiple exposures and then combine them in post. Furthermore, Anders wanted to shoot high-speed with zero motion blur and considering this was a night shoot which added tremendously to the difficulty.

Together with DP Zubin Mistry they asked themselves: How do we shoot fast paced action high-speed, everything in focus, no motion blur, at night, with both the buildings and the sky and athlete fully exposed?

The answer was motion control, a monstrous lighting package, Master Primes wide angles, Phantom Flex 4K, and lots of compositing. Using the motion control rig they filmed each shot in several passes moving the massive light rigs out of the shot each time background and buildings were being shot. The motion control rig enables the team to be able to squeeze in another cool gimmick; slow motion athletes in the foreground and time lapse cityscapes in the backgrounds – in the same shot!

The result is a spectacular and hyper-real look that feels almost CG-like even though most of it was shot in camera.

Aaron 'Wheelz' Fotheringham - Wheelchair Action Sports from Unit Clothing on Vimeo.

Unit, one of the world's fastest growing action sports brands, has just released a six-minute mini-documentary on one of their star athletes, Aaron “Wheelz” Fotheringham.

Wheelz, 19, has obtained a cult following globally for his antics with the Nitro Circus Live Tour after successfully landing 40ft Backflips, Double Backflips and Front-flips in the past six months… in a wheelchair.

The Las Vegas teenager is one of the most inspirational athletes in the entire action-sports industry; he hasn’t let spina bifida dictate his lot in life and has taken his custom-built wheelchair to places they’ve never been before, including skateparks, BMX parks and of course, the Giganta-Ramp.

Unit sat down with Wheelz during a recent trip to the USA and found out what makes the laid-back, humble teenager tick. Visit youtube.com/unitridersaus to check it out.

Following on from the successful Nitro Circus Live New Zealand Tour Wheelz is back in Vegas and preparing for the Nitro Circus Australian Regional Tour, which kicks off on March 9 at Albury’s Lavington Sports Ground.

George Spillmann: Effective Business Management Tips

Managing a business is not an easy role. Historically, setting the tone in the business that enables others to work optimally is difficult yet necessary for the company to function. As business executive George Spillmann knows, it’s important for business leaders to use effective methods that ensure work is done faster and more efficiently.

Because a lot of responsibility falls on senior management, it’s a common feeling among executives to feel overworked. However, an effective manager can employ a few techniques to ensure they work smarter. Avoiding stress is paramount to effectively utilizing the mind, which some industry experts view as the most powerful tool in business.

Relax

Managers who are less stressed and keep clear heads are able to make good decisions. As an executive, you can keep tabs on the amount of stressful situations you can handle. Anytime you find yourself getting overly agitated over poor performance or losing business, take a moment to breathe and evaluate the situation. In almost any instance, getting worked up or anxious over anything is never a good use of your energy. That’s why it is important to cut out all the anxiety and focus on getting the job done. Even adopting a positive attitude can make a lot of difference in your performance.

Break up work

Another way to boost productivity is by breaking up large, complex projects into smaller, more palatable assignments. Breaking up a large project has the capacity to allow faster completion and easier monitoring of work. Employees can also be more motivated to work on a project when they can work on smaller tasks. If a small part of the project can be completed, it acts as a motivator towards the individuals working on it.

George Spillmann has worked in the automotive industry since leaving the military. He is constantly working to improve business skills.
