We’re looking forward to introducing you to Eric Meyer. Check out our conversation below.
Eric, so good to connect and we’re excited to share your story and insights with our audience. There’s a ton to learn from your story, but let’s start with a warm up before we get into the heart of the interview. What do you think is misunderstood about your business?
It seems that people misunderstand how much work goes in to creating, recording and releasing music to the public. Often people seem to think that this is something that can be done in an hour and they seem to combine tracking, editing, mixing and mastering in to one word…”recording”.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My job is to create projects to accomplish, network and generate business, and deliver the vision of the artist so that it can be released to the world so that the artist can have creative material to perform and share with their audience. Our brand is unique because we are very customer oriented and we can have expedient communication with our clients. What makes us unique is that we are a very small team that can pivot and make adjustments quickly. As of now we are adding educational videos to our YouTube channel showing people how equipment can be repaired so that they don’t always have to dispose of a piece of equipment as junk. We really try to be a good steward of peoples money and we believe that by educating the world we can contribute to people having money to spend on other necessities as well as help them achieve their goals.
Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. What breaks the bonds between people—and what restores them?
It seems that the things that break bonds between people is the lack of working together. It seems that with the advent of phones that the world has become more disconnected from each other and people seem to have become a more I-centric in their universe. We think that the best way to restore the broken bonds is to lead by example and bring the ability to share the space with other people and to bring back communication with the ability to agree to disagree and agree to work together. It seems that if we would talk directly with each other and if we put the electronic phone barrier down the problems would more than likely start to disappear and people would find a way to work with each other.
What did suffering teach you that success never could?
The thing that suffering taught me that success never could is how to persevere for the long haul and how to recover from mistakes. By making mistakes I learned what I did wrong and how to recover from mistakes. Had I got them right the first time I would have missed opportunities to learn new information. Since learning is considered good…what is the reason that society doesn’t teach that making mistakes is a form of learning. Since we seem to be willing to pay for higher education, what prevents us from being able to learn from people that we pay to do a service. I am fortunate for every HVAC tech, electrician, plumber, janitors and other people that do jobs that are in my blind spot because I get an opportunity to learn from new people and to me that is a WIN!
I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. Where are smart people getting it totally wrong today?
It seems that “smart people” always think newer is better. “Smart people” also seem to think that just because you can…you should do it. It doesn’t seem that they have much of an aerial view of the ramifications of their actions. It seems that they are not smart enough to know that all big things started out small. Once the small thing becomes to big to control then they say “we meant it for the best”.
Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. Are you doing what you were born to do—or what you were told to do?
This is an interesting question. I am doing what I choose to do. Every day I choose to educate myself more and there are tons of topics that I am working at understanding and getting better at.
