Here’s what you missed by not attending the last Media Coalition Networking Salon on Tuesday, October 11, 2006.

Guests:
Janice Brown, VP of Ventura Brokerage, Inc and Christine Sadofsky, President.

The presenters were engaging and specific on how you can get hurt if you do not have the adequate insurance for your productions.

Those filmmakers who were present learned:
- How to select a broker and the value of speaking to insurance people who listen to your needs before completing your budget and your production;

- Types of insurance you’ll need for domestic versus international productions.

Also, Janice and Christine shared that you are the client not the insurance company and your needs come first.

Everyone present asked questions and they responded completely to everyone. They showed the value of real customer service and how helping you protect yourself is simply good business.

See you next time. Don’t miss it!
