Creative and Post-production agency in OC seeks a connected professional with people and contacts in the right places. We provide high-end retouching, CGI/animation and photography to various industries and are looking to blow things up by getting in front of the right people and companies. We need someone who has the following people in their pocket: Traffic Managers, Art Buyers, Art Producers and Art Directors, Marketing Managers and others who hire vendors for production and post-production work. I'm effectively looking for a partner and I'm willing to offer an equity stake to the right person. My LinkedIn profile is here: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/nick-markovsky-mba/7/696/629?_mSplash=1 We do not yet have a physical location. . .we're virtual now but looking to get into a studio when the time is right. See http://www.pixelmachine.com We currently work with a handful of OC ad/marketing agencies and have several direct b2b relationships as well. I am the founder/CEO and I hold a UC Irvine MBA along with nearly 20 years experience in high-caliber post-production at the top shops in and around OC. I am the only employee on the books. I have developed quite a large network of ex-coworkers, local freelancers and outsourcing options allowing the company to remain very lean, mean and scalable. Scalability is the key to being able to offer ultra-premium work at prices usually untouchable by other post-production houses. When we need a photo studio, we rent one. If I need to bring on people for a contract project, I do so. I need to team up with someone who has contacts in the local advertising and marketing spheres as well as be able to sell to the industries which we believe need to know about us. Specifically, I see huge untapped markets for CGI in cosmetics, packaging, CPG, online fashion retail and others. Further, any manufacturer who has products designed using CAD software are another target as we can leverage their CAD into amazing marketing and sales collateral promo pieces with great cost efficiencies to the client. So, if you have a sales background in marketing/adv (with contacts at agencies and industries mentioned above) and you understand that CGI has tons of potential beyond games and movies, shoot me an email. Send along your story: resume, credentials and any other info that would be helpful to know. If your background looks like a fit, perhaps we can get together for a beer and discuss. (Extra props for those who know about and enjoy good beer and good scotch.) If any of the above information doesn't make sense to you, you're likely not the person I'm looking for. Please save us both tons of time and refrain from replying unless you live and breathe this stuff and have a background that speaks to this fact. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you! Nick
