Tour now: Oslo, Next stop: Stavanger, tomorrow-1 Nov
-Is that a child I hear in the background!?, Eric expressed in the Models-n-Shoots' phone conference.
-Yeah! I just moved in to a house with a pregnant wife, a kid and a dog. I got a package deal.
-OK..., was the only comment before Eric continued the meeting.
I guess the crew at home is used to me being on tour. :-)
A later comment was "That explains why you spend so much time in Norway!"
Actually, we are extremely lucky to have a lot of nice people helping out on Customer Launch Tour. This time it was Cecilia who gave me an office, a room, the one day hang-around, Mari, her sister's daughter and her all-time hang-around dog. Good for a low budget—high-tech tour.
Also, included in the package deal was a lovely view from the bathroom window in the morning!
Cecilia lives in a small house 30 min outside Oslo and I was soooo nice staying there! I just love to be out on the countryside sitting having talks at nights.
So in a sofa was where I started chasing jobs in Norway for our Talents of Models-n-Shoots. With my iPhone headset plugged into my Mac I could call via our switchboard in Sweden (I love today's tech!) and get hold of ad agencies in Norway. All I need to work is basically electricity and Internet access. I rather stay in a cold-floored house in Norway with a lovely "wife" working from a sofa, than being stuck at some luxury office wearing a suite. But I miss the fun crowd a the office at home.
The calls went good!
We got interest from ad agencies in Oslo, Kristiansand, Stavanger, Bergen and Trondheim and next week we will let them in to Models-n-Shoots.
They have all different wishes for models, but a lot of them are looking for "generally good-looking persons with something special". Time to start hunting!
Another thing I learned about Norway: if you mix banana (36%) with sugar and some acid, you get a bread spread for kids. Nope, it does not taste good, but if you taste thoroughly you can actually taste some banana. :-)
Time to prepare for tomorrow's calls to customers in Norway and pack for going to Stavanger.
Cheeers!
