Daniel Pink is a bestselling author and friend who's written several really great books like To Sell is Human, Drive and A Whole New Mind, that have helped me (and my production company clients) grow their brands. I think this evergreen message about the "scientific secrets of perfect timing" is worth hearing again and again. Enjoy!
Special Thanks to our sponsors!
Fourlaps:
This episode is brought to by Fourlaps. When I was searching for the perfect short to take me from a run near my home in Laguna — right into a swim in the Pacific Ocean — I found the Fourlaps Bolt short 5”. The truth is I sometimes sleep in my shorts now too — they are that comfortable. I soon discovered that I could build an entire active lifestyle wardrobe to meet the functional needs of my busy job running my Southern California based production company. I wear the fashionable Traverse pants with an open button down shirt or casual sport jacket for pitch meetings and Flex Joggers and a Radius Polo on set when I really need to move around. I highly recommend checking out Fourlaps full line for men and women. Use my special promo code “BRY” to get a deal off your next purchase.

I’ve been a Pro User of Vimeo basically since I started my production company in 2010. Vimeo is for creative professions like me and I use it several different ways:
- It’s a place for me to upload videos with a password for my clients to be able to review and download the work I’m doing for them. There’s no compression or crushing of black colors or over- saturation like when I upload to Youtube. My clients get the full 4K resolution HD as it was intended.
- I use it to host / broadcast live events…
- I also use Vimeo for my portfolio, case studies —and it never has annoying pre roll ads. I can create a customized player and keep people on my landing page so they don’t get distracted and go down the rabbit hole watching someone else’s stuff.
- What you may not know is that Vimeo can be used if you’re in HR to put all your on-boarding videos in one place.. you could do the same if you teach a course…put your vids behind a paywall and charge for it.
- Need a videographer, Creative director or editor? Vimeo let’s you post jobs or find creative professionals.
There are a ton more options so I would suggest checking them out. Just go to Vimeo.com and see what’s possible!
