After watching 60 Minutes, with their piece on Drew Rosenhaus, the super agent of the NFL, I was thinking - Where is the super agent in your business? I see these football players, all very talented athletes, and they don't have to tell people how good they are. They go out, do what they do, and someone else negotiates for them. Someone else has their back. Someone else understands the game they are playing and convinces the people who hire this talent, how much money they are worth.
Where is the Drew Rosenhaus in your industry? In my industry, the speaking industry, I know many speakers who are really good. I mean brilliantly talented and yet most off them/us are out negotiating our own fees. You don't see the top football players doing that. They have Drew.
Isn't time that each of us find that "super advocate/ agent" who can spot the best of the best in any industry and start becoming an advocate/agent/mouthpiece for the people who are the best of best in what they do? I challenge someone to step up, get yourself on the cover of Ink Magazine, of Fortune Magazine, of the New York Times Sunday Parade Magazine as the super agent of what ever industry they are the expert in... Any takers? Also, if you do follow Drew's model, it seems quite lucrative.. he made over $18 Million last year.
