- 1. Win an argument, but lose a sale
- There are lots of media consultants out there. But in the end, why work closely with people you don’t really like. You can be proud to have us interface with your customers on your behalf. We have the right combination of being tough negotiators and finding a creative win-win solution so that your business partners will want to do business with you again in the future.
- 2. Why deal with Schmidt Junior when you can go directly to Schmidt?
- US Media has connections at the top operational level or shareholder level of many Media Companies. The business is growing, but the number of big players is consolidating. Take advantage of our connections.
- 3. If you can’t kick with both feet, then you are only half a soccer player.
- For most areas we consult in, we have experience on both sides of the negotiations table, for instance content distribution platforms and content suppliers. Don’t limit yourself to a consultant with only one-sided experience.
- 4. If you have to ask the price you can’t afford it
- Don’t worry … with US you can ask because low overhead = lower costs to you. We aren’t just out to load up on the billable hours to pay off our back office. We don’t even have back-office that we try to re-finance through you. We are just a few smart guys and girls with lap-tops and cell phones who deliver solutions within realistic time horizons. Depending on the client’s job and wishes, we have worked on either a fee per month basis, a fee + bonus basis, or a fee + participation in the additional value created basis.
