The idea that helps Film Producers
Film Producers want to easily coordinate complex shooting schedules. However, they can't get it because they struggle to efficiently organize and communicate shoot times, locations, and crew availability.
Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. ShootSync.
Production Schedule Management Software : ShootSync is a cloud-based software solution that allows film producers to effortlessly coordinate complex shooting schedules, manage locations, and communicate with the crew in real-time. Of course it is much better than the stuff from StudioBinder, or Setkeeper!
How to find Film Producers
You can get insights about the pain points of film producers if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.
The process, step by step
One process that we can totally recommend is this:
- Find out where film producers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
- Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
- Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
- If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of film producers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
- At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Production Schedule Management Software.
