Grecian Influence: Job 35 and Job 36!

Great news: I am confirmed for Job 35 and Job 36, next Friday and Saturday!  And, serendipitously, both have Grecian themes!

For Job 35, I will be sampling and promoting Kalikori Olive Oil for Spyros Bourboulis at The Atwater Market (Marché Atwater) from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on March 5th.

Kalikori oil is produced from hand-culled, cold-pressed Vatsikes olives grown on a small, family-owned orchard in the mountainous Kalamata region of Greece.  Spyros's wife's grandfather planted the orchard over sixty years ago and her premium olive oil business perpetuates her family traditions and estate.  I can't wait to taste the oil; it supposedly has a sweet, peppery taste.  Yum!  I'm going to revel in my Omega 3s and get my gourmet on!

For Job 36, I am going to slather myself in oil, rewind 2 500 years and get my Greek goddess on!  Okay, okay, replace oil with glitter...

On Saturday, March 6, from 2 -5 p.m. at Mainline theatre, I will be inhabiting my burlesque alter-ego, Miss Mae Montreal and modeling as a Greek goddess for the world infamous live burlesque drawing Event: Dr. Sketchy



Trivia: I was the first model ever to perform for Dr. Sketchy in August 2008, in a hand-beaded showgirl outfit (took me over three weeks to make, Swarovskis, Ostrich feathers et al)!  This will be the third time I'm working for the organization, and probably my sexiest effort (think: olive oil and Aphrodite ;)  I already have my flowing goddess dress in mind, as well as my otherworldly underpinnings!

There will be FREE ADMISSION to anyone wearing a toga!  That means you, George!  HA!  Otherwise, it's 10 Buckeroos to see me live in my Underoos!  Tips are customary and accepted in $100 denominations ;)  Your Goddess spanks you!

IN OTHER JOBS:

REMINDER:  As part of Montreal's Nuit Blanche festival, the Art Anarcholympics at Red Bird Studios, 135 Van Horne, is on TONIGHT, from 8 p.m. onward.  My sexy unitard stretching and floor swimming Kabaret of Kinomorphosis will be fully functional and featured!

Paul wrote me this funny e-mail today:
aimee,

hahah- funny youtube video!

did you get yer milli-tard hits*

the footage was super.


thanks for being a good SPORT!

p

*1000 youtube hits per uni-tard.

I didn't get my milli-tard yet; as of 7:30 p.m., I'm at a centi-tard, or 132 hits.

Speaking of hits, I am super stoked for my Underpants Dance, to be released this week.  Editing is going to take a wee bit longer than I anticipated, but it should be hot, hot, hot and feature my butt, butt, butt in One Hundred Jobs gear.

Enjoy burning the midnight oil tonight! 

Your Goddess,

Miss Mae Olive Oil

Goooooooo.... Erotic Educators!

IN JOBS FROM AROUND THE WEB:

In case you missed the media hullabaloo earlier this week, two Winnipeg, Manitoba teachers were suspended after they connected with their inner YouTube famewhores and broke out in a cheeseball lap dance during a high school pep rally:



Moral: minors and muff diving don't mix.  Neither do classrooms and cunnilingus.

T-shirt Heaven

George the Spanker and I struck a deal this week that he would sponsor the soon-to-be world famous One Hundred Jobs branded Underpants Dance.  Here is the e-mail of Georgie accepting my $69 counter offer to create a sponsored underwear and t-shirt video:
|
Uncle George to Me:











   



You SO want to do ths Underpants Dance...

How could I, as a red-blooded American pervert, possibly deny you the pleasure?

One behalf of all your horny, fun-loving followers, we have a deal, provided you get 857 views!

Commence a-shakin yo money-maker...

George


I then wrote back:
Semi - deal.  I will refund you back $50 to cover costs of apparel branding of your $69 payment for the sponsorship of The Underpants Dance if I fail to get 857 views.

A

--

And so the $69 was sent from George via Paypal and all was well.  All that is left is recording the video and getting the views.

Except for...

Rosanne (The potential $100 unitard - buying client) to me:

Oke, i understand it, but i have not 100 USD for the unitard. It is a nice project.
I can promote you project with the unitard.
When you have an old unitard after the project, you can send it to me. Haha.

Greetz Rosanne
 Sorry, Rosanne, no Benjamins, no 'tard in the mail.  Anyone else want to buy my dark turquoise blue unitard???


HOWEVER, I GOT AN AMAZING IDEA TODAY FROM A FRIEND REGARDING CUSTOM 100 JOBS T-SHIRTS:

I am going to launch, via Prinfection.com, limited edition T-shirts listing all of my 100 jobs, at one job per t-shirt, in my trademark Impact font!  I will do so starting tomorrow.  Malay of Montreal can still design her custom tees, but I think this One Hundred Jobs specific idea is killer!   Thanks, Andras!

I may also be launching limited edition prints of Stephen Frew's artwork.  Check out this portrait that he painted from the art modeling I did for Job 25:

Wowza.  Halluncinogenic pretty.

IN OTHER JOBS:

Kalikori Olive Oil will likely hire me to sample Olive Oil in Gourmet food shops, as Job 35.  I'm still awaiting confirmation for the exact details!

Enjoy your din din in your work shirtz, pervertz,

NFB Press Presence, Lester B. and Hostess Hair!

Canada's National Film Board, the NFB, is profiling my project with a video and photo essay for a new media documentary called the GDP: Canadians Confronting the Economic Crisis and wants to document at least three new jobs within the next couple of weeks. I'm so honoured!  The GDP feels that I found a novel solution to my unemployment: a self-directed new media job challenge that makes use of all of my skills as an artistic professional and social media maven.

For the documentary, I'd like to do at least one office job, a trades job and maybe a restaurant job, if anyone has any suggestions.  You'll benefit from the additional press coverage provided by the NFB.  I love my silly unitard gigs, don't get me wrong, but I need more diversity in my job jumping!

IN OTHER JOBS:

Here are a few photos taken during Job 33 last week, when I hosted the corporate video about vocational education for the Lester B. Pearson school board's Adult Education and Vocational Training CentresMarrone Video provided an amazing production crew and I really enjoyed the company of the talented
directors from Lester B, Veronique and Paula.

Striking a glam pose on set. I hand sewed the top the night before.
That's me in the monitor and in the front row. 

Gettin' my make-up touched up on my...
Head of the class.

I am so channeling Oprah AND Dolly Parton with my hostess hair.
Script reading with Derek Dugas, Director!

My amazing crew from Marrone Video and Lester B. Pearson Vocational Education!

I told you my hair was cute! 

I'm going to put together a blooper video from Job 33 as soon as I get my hot little paws on the footage in a couple of weeks.

A word about vocational education:  I think that it's about time that trade-based education made a shameless come back!  Because many people in the current job market possesses University diplomas, work experience and technical training are often bigger assets than broad academic training.  Also, University education is not as targeted in its approach to job training, leaving many students completely lost upon graduation about which career or industry to pursue.  Learning a trade is also faster than completing a degree: most vocational courses can be completed within one to two years.  Vocational education is a great practical solution to be quickly trained and obtain work in a specific career.

Otherwise you'll end up like me, a B.A. doing 100 jobs, most of which are in a unitard!

HA!

Job 34: Costumed Art Model for the Kabaret of Kinomorphosis

As I announced on Friday, I completed Job 34 today as a costumed art model for my friend Paul Warne's "Kabaret of Kinomorphosis" to be shown during Montreal's Nuit Blanche ("All Nighter") festival THIS SATURDAY FEBRUARY 27 at 8 p.m. - 3 a.m. at the RED BIRD STUDIOS free open doors event, located at 135 Van Horne Avenue.

This is a video of the previous costumed art model movement work I did for Paul for another installation, the Lumenarium.  The first body is my body, but with a baby's head:



Basically, the installation is a new version of the old cut out headboards at carnivals and amusement parks, but with moving bodies.  The bodies are projected onto a screen with a hole cut out to peek your head through.

Here are the e-mails I got from Paul leading up to our job today:
Hey Aimee-

A last minute inquiry.
I'm doing a video installation for Nuit Blanche at Red Bird studios, and am still not sure exactly what it will be.

They are having an Olympics theme, so I was thinking to do a new variation on the Kaberet of Kinomorphosis with athletics/sports as the theme.
Before I get into the ideas I have about it, I wanted to check to see if you might be interested and had time next week to schedule a shoot?

(Ideally Tue. or Wednesday). No make-up, 1-3 simple costumes at most (and do you still offer the 100 bones artist-special?)

p
--
 
Paul,
Yes and yes! And Job 34! Whoot!

--
Aimee
 
Great! I am glad to hear you are available.


Let's do Tuesday then.
I'm still working on the direction for the piece, and will give you more info. over the weekend as it occurs to me.


The theme of the evening is the "Art Anchrolympics" .


Do you have any of the following:


- old-timey bathing suit (i think you mentioned this once?)


- modern (sports) bathing suit


- any kind of sports-uniform/ paraphernalia


- cheerleading outfit


- biking outfit (spandex!)


- yoga/gym-wear


- dancer/gym outfit circa Fame (leotard, legwarmers, etc.)

This could take the direction of a "kabaret" piece, which would be fun and keep in the vein of the original (while making a little nod to the spectacle of sports)- but I don't yet have a skit/number in mind. And/or it might be a more literal interpretation, i.e. just athletic-type movements. Still working on it...

and, of course, if any of this sparks any ideas in that creative noggin' of yours, let me know!


Looking forward to working together again


p
Well, we did wind up working together again today and I brought a big backpack full of sexy sporty goodies, including THE DARK TURQUOISE BLUE UNITARD (Yes, Rosanne, and all my other 'tard fans). 

The vid for Job 34 is up in two hours!

Uni-Yes!

I think I had a psychic moment yesterday when I wrote, "I wonder if unitard fetishists like Olympic speed skating?" on my Twitter because I just got an offer, via Youtube, to sell one of my unitards:
Hello Sweety,



In the movie Episode Three you wearing a unitard.


I like that movie. Can i get a unitard from you?




Greetz Rosanne

Absolutely you can, Ms. Rosanne!  This is what I wrote back:


Re: Episode Three Unitard

Hi Rosanne,

I have a dark turquoise blue unitard without any logos for $100 USD.
Did you want me to wear it beforehand? If you send me a payment via Paypal to aimee.davison@gmail.com and your mailing address, I can mail it to you as soon as payment clears!

Take care and thank you!

Aimee.


-- 

Why am I in possession of a dark turquoise blue unitard, you ask?  Because that's what I wear when I write my Blog entries, Rosanne. ;)

I kid, I kid, I was going to use it for my fabulous zany aerobics class.  But if a generous soul wants to purchase it off of me as a $100 job, consider the 'tard in the mail! 

Am I really going to become a niche specialist in unitard modeling?

If so,  MAD ZAWESOME! 

I'll be rockin' the body stockin'! 

Sounds like a t-shirt slogan!!!!!!

--

In other "pushing the panty line" offers, George may be paying me my counter offer of $69 for a branded One Hundred Jobs t-shirt and underwear combo Youtube show (and t-shirt promo video), hereafter known as The Underpants Dance:
Aimee,

Hey, I never thought I'd hear you ask me for "69" anything
I will agree to your offer, with one caveat: As an incentive for you to make the Soon-to-Be-World-Famous Aimee Davison Underpants Dance xtra supah sexeh, we add a small wager
Your awesome booty-shake video has, after three months, received 857 views on YouTube. If the Underpants Dance has received less views than that within three months (by May 22), I get my $69 back.
Deal?
So now not only does George want to drag me into the underground world of bum tapping, but now he wants me to gamble? 

I don't know.  I'm not really that much of a risk taker.

*snickers*

I think we're on, Georgie!!!!  That underpants dance is aching to bust forth from my...


Unitard money maker,

Job Went Well: Let's Drink Beer!

The video is slow, but the content is good.  Here's my weekly recap in 100 jobs, featuring my fabulous curly hair:

http://www.ustream.tv/flash/video/4853032

On my want list: faster Internet connection AND beer glasses.

I reviewed Bud Light Lime and gave it a 7.5 out of 10... refreshing, crisp and limey.  Good, clean finish and a nice way to end my work day.

By the way, next Tuesday, I'm doing Job 34 as a costumed model for an art installation!  More deets later!

Off to relax... worked 10 hours today,

Life Imitates Job

Hola,

Through my acting agent, I got hired last minute yesterday for a job on Friday hosting a corporate video on "Vocational Education".  My script makes me giggle:

I'm excited to be here today to help you answer the burning question:
what am I going to do with my future?

The pressure is on to make decisions!

You may be worried, and concerned, about which path to take,
one that will lead to a fulfilling career and allow you
to capitalize on your skills and passions!

The clincher comes later on:

I don't know about you, but I wish someone had talked to me
about all the possibilities that vocational education has to offer!

LOL!

I'm really happy I get to put my hosting skills to use. Technically, I got this Job through my agency, but it is paying over $100, so I am going to list it as Job 33: Hosting Corporate Video about Vocational Education.  Fits, non?

I hope [Aimee has] inspired you
to begin visualizing yourselves
learning and working in an area that suits
your passion and personality
[like One Hundred Jobs]!

Gotta memorize my lines before tomorrow,

Aimee.

Perfection at Printfection?

In the comments of my last post about my newest web venture and Job 32, T-shirt making, Laura Roberts pointed out that there may be better alternatives to Cafe Press.  I did some research and Printfection seems the way to go: free pro shops, more colour choices, better printing process and cheaper base prices.

In the spirit of One Hundred Jobs being an exercise in online job proliferation, and a good case study for others trying to do the same, I'm going to distribute on two channels and sell via Printfection AND Cafe Press.  Let the market decide which service it wants to use!   I am voting Printfection, because I think the product will end up being cheaper for my clients (You guys!).  We'll see when my first products go up in about a week. 

Keep the t-shirt suggestions coming, please!  Any ideas or phrases about jobs, working, business or social media are encouraged, especially if it's funny!  The sooner you submit your idea, the more likely your slogan is to end up on one of our custom tees.

Speaking of custom orders, George the Spanker made this "generous" offer:
Aimee,
After reading your blog today, I had an idea to help promote your OneHundredJobs effort. I see they sell women's boy-briefs at cafepress as well as T-shirts. I will buy you a T-shirt that says "OneHundredJobs" on the front, and a pair of boy-briefs that says "Assume the Position" on the rear. In exchange, you would agree to make a video of yourself modeling them. I think that would definitely be worth a couple of hundred hits for you on YouTube, and it would give me some cheap thrills.
George
My response:

George,

Will this be a $100 job? Sending me a payment and I order them myself?

Can I do it in the signature One Hundred Jobs Impact font? White on

blue or white on black? Or do you prefer black on another colour? What

colour scheme?

Aimee.

--
A,

Hmmm... for $100, I think it would have to be the thong panties, not the boy-shorts.
My idea was simply to pay you the costs of printing. And yes, you could print them any color scheme and font you prefer, and you would have to order them yourself — I am certain you would not give out your mailing address for me to place the order!
George

I can't believe I asked him what colour scheme he wanted.   Ha!  He very obviously wants something else... in flesh tone!

I don't know if I'll take Georgie-pie up on his offer or not.  I could make my cute little modeling video into a kind of advertising for my t-shirts and underoos, but George is still paying less than my rate for producing custom content.  I even have a dance in mind Ã  la Risky Business...

 

By the way, Anonymous, I won't do "it" for $100, nice try! 

Should I make a "Kahn is an artist and you are a moron" t-shirt too?

IN OTHER JOBS:

I finally opened my trading account at CIBC!  While opening my account, I learned that the banking representative opens very few self-directed investing accounts.  That doesn't surprise me, because I think most people, especially women, see investing in the stock market as a complicated hassle.  I want to prove otherwise.

My account should go live in my online banking in about a week.  I'm going to have to start researching hot stocks soon.  If you have any stock pics or investment tips, please feel free to pass them on via my comments.

I can has $100 on a printed tee AND in mah pockitt,

Creativity, Collaboration Cure Unemployment.

In my The Frisky.com article, I opened with "creativity is the cure for unemployment".  I'm going to update that phrase and say instead that "creativity and collaboration cure unemployment."

Alliterative C's aside, I think that one of the advantages of social networking is that like-minded artists can easily meet and build mutually beneficial businesses together.  There is strength in numbers and a saner-than-doing-100-jobs-all-by-yourself division of labor.

As such, for Job 32, I am opening up a Café Press Shop with a designer called Malay of Montreal.  I met her through the talented, award-winning art director and graphic designer for Maisonneuve Magazine, Anna Mizhulina.

Malay is experienced in logo design, screen printing, t-shirt design and a level of graphic awesomeness that I could never achieve on my own.  Our agreement:  in exchange for her generating the designs for free, I am splitting profits of our sales 50/50.  That means that we have to generate at least $200 in profit for the job to count!

The disadvantage to Cafe Press is that the base prices are a little high, but the advantage is that start-up costs are zero, you don't need to fuss with shipping, inventory never runs out, and you don't get high from the solvents used in printing. Or is that a dis...

We decided to make some of the t-shirts specific to social media, blogging and work, instead of branded exclusively as "One Hundred Jobs".  We want our market to be as wide as possible, instead of limited family sales to my Mom and Gran.  

Do you have any One Hundred Jobs or work-related slogans you'd like to see on a shirt?  Malay and I are open to suggestions!

(Don't hate on the food baby?)
(Cheesie Finger Feast?)
(My boss sucks balls?)
(I'd kill you but you are my coworker?)
(I'd spank you but you are my coworker?)

Don't carry out You-commerce companionless, cuties!  Cash-in on collaboration!  Crush it, crazies!

Job 31: Slak.ca

It's pretty much fashion industry standard that photo shoots always pop up last minute, usually when you chowed down on cheesies and are bloated.  Yup.

Last Friday, right before sitting down to broadcast Blood, Sweat and Beers, I got an e-mail from a fellow named Jim, asking if I could model on Saturday for a clothing company called Slak.

Melanie, the boutique's owner and chief designer, had never hired a model before.  Because of One Hundred Jobs, she finally got the chance!

Here's what went down during Job 31:



Slak has a boutique and a workshop on 352 Villeray in Montreal. You can also purchase the clothing online via Agences Ka. Melanie was also kind enough to give me a pretty blue tunic top, on top of my rate. Sweet!

In case the video didn't make it obvious, Slak doesn't actually make slacks!  They make relaxed "slacker" casual clothing for women in comfortable stretch fabrics.  At the boutique on Villeray, they also sell men's screen print shirts, one of which has an adorable seagull print on it!  I loves!

IN OTHER JOBS:

Charles Vinh, the artist whom I taught a few Photoshop tricks to for Job 13, sent on this illustration he made of me. He had snapped a couple photos of me before I left that day, because he needed images of women walking, from behind. George the Spanker is sure to love this!

Don't I look inviting and... blonde?


At least my cheesie-induced food baby was well-hidden.

Blood, Sweat and... Nothing?

I am so frustrated!!!  Yesterday, I recorded clips on Ustream and they didn't save properly.  I drank Tuborg beer and gave it a 6.5 out of ten; it was light yellow with a medium head, bitter, dry and tasted weakly of grain.  A disappointment after a long, hard week of looking for jobs and putting up with Anonymous. :p

To make matters worse, tonight I recorded a recap episode and the video didn't record and the audio is super quiet.  UGH! That means you'll unfortunately have to wait until next week for the 4th episode of Blood, Sweat and Beers. 

What did work out, however, was my conversation about my use of social media with Jackson Wightman.

We talked yesterday for about twenty minutes (you can hear the Podcast via the link above) about my project, my social media platforms (My blog, Ustream [GRRR], Youtube, Twitter and Facebook [Still need more fan page members!]) and my ideas for how businesses and job seekers can make use of a social media strategy.  I think all brands should have a presence:  the cost of entry into the social media sphere is minimal and equally the cost of failure is low! 

In other good news: I completed Job 31 today!  I want to keep it a surprise, but it went really well and I should have the video edited by Monday.

I need to relax.  I will not let Ustream give me a coronary just before Valentines' day.

Happy V-day, loves!  Drink anything but Tuborg!

Don't Die Penniless

This has been burning a hole in my psyche for the last couple of days: I said I would respond at length to the comments posted about Job 29.

To respond to Beeeeeeeeen, I agree that artists should create first and foremost, and that some works should never be encumbered by concern for financial gain.  No artistic progress would ever be made if all artistic content was tainted by capitalism (though some could argue that it is, no matter what, but I digress...).  As I mentioned in my entry, if your goal as an artist is to create commercially viable works, you need to analyze if there is a market for your work, and if so, how you will promote, sell and distribute that work.

I also feel that some artists are idealistic and assume that financial success is guaranteed if their work or their talent is exceptional.  I wish for those artists to become more pragmatic in their approach to selling and marketing their creations, as to not end up like the case study cited by "Anonymous": Louis Kahn dying penniless in a train station, despite arguably being one of the best architects of the 20th century.  I don't meet to be crass, but imagine if that artist had sought out business training or government funding assistance?  His fate may have been different.

Speaking of the business of doing business, you'll notice that the changes to my blog have begun, starting with a custom "Favicon" (little icon in your browser's URL bar) that I pho-to-shopped for 100 jobs.  I learnt how to create and upload my Favicon at a great free blogger template website: YummyLolly.com.  The 100 Jobs Favicon was created using IconJ.com and is hosted on their site.  Yippie!

Unfortunately, Jackson Wightman couldn't chat with me today because he had to attend to other business.  We should be doing the interview within the next few days.

I wanted to post this song as inspiration to anyone engaging in the challenge of starting a new business, capitalizing on the tools of my self-coined neologism "You-commerce", or employing the "numerical challenge blog revenue model":



Don't die penniless: persist and always strive to improve your work!   For instance, I have so many surprises in store in the next few weeks.  I'm excited!

Work it harder, make it better, do it faster, makes us stronger,


Aimee

No, I will not be available for your presentation, neither this week, nor in 20 years time.  I also don't understand the logic of your job offer: I will be working for you, but you won't be my boss?  I suppose you mean that I won't have a direct supervisor breathing down my neck and pressuring me, like you are sure to do at your marketing presentation.

And colour me silly, but I think I already have a job where I make my own hours, am my own boss and could make a very interesting salary based on my efforts: it's called One Hundred Jobs.

Sincerely,


Aimee Davison
Ms. In Need of a Legitimate Job Offer.

Colours and Interviews

I'm updating my Blogger template again and I'm offering this disclaimer: if my blog looks like it was coded in crayon and scotch tape, it's because I'm being artful in my new design, which will hopefully stick with me until 100 Jobs is in the bag (not full of weasels).

I read a funny article yesterday on MSNBC that linked certain colours with depression, and guess what? Grey is the top colour associated with a doom and gloom frame of mind! 

From the article Different colors describe happiness, depression:
The study found that people with depression or anxiety were more likely to associate their mood with the color gray, while happier people preferred yellow.
My grey text: harshing on my yellow. Ha ha ha. Ahem.




I'm sitting at about a #10 poo brown right about now.  Yourself?

IN OTHER JOBS:

I'm being interviewed tomorrow by Jackson Wightman of Proper Propaganda(I like his blog design!)  We are going to talk about my use of social media tools in the promotion and execution of One Hundred Jobs.   I'm going to film our phone chat and upload it to my YouTube channel tomorrow!

Of to wrestle with XML templates,

Aimee.

Bunch of Stuff (Weasels)

As I said on my Twitter feed, lately I feel about as fun as a bag of weasels... when you are in the bag.

Image via Sleevage.com

A bunch of things are bugging me:

I'm not so sure I'm happy with my new blog design. It's beginning to feel like a dress that you thought looked awesome on someone else that you bought on a whim without trying on and now you look... like a bag of weasels.

My main issues with the design is that it is written in bloody "spaghetti code" that is impossible to modify, especially the font sizes and colours, which I am finding too big and too grey. Also, the current design is too "steely, hard and masculine" for my tastes and the tone of this blog. I lost the soft, fun charm of my previous design. I feel like my writing, as a result, has suffered as well... what happened to funny Aimee?

Well, I'll tell you what happened to funny Aimee: she is experiencing the pains of the employment search: not getting a job or jobs she thought she was booking. Here's what I lost out on this month, with dollar amounts attached:

1) An out-of-town 3 day fashion contract for $1 500: the client canceled on everyone the last minute.

2) I lost a regular, house cleaning client: She paid me $100 every couple of weeks for 3-4 hours of cleaning her semi-detached. She told me she was "super satisfied" but that she wanted to return to cleaning for herself. She also said she wants her key back. SNIFF!!!!

3) I was sent on 3 modeling castings and didn't get any of them despite knowing I did a decent job at the auditions. A lot of us do a decent job, though: competition is fierce and FIERCE. :D

4) Because I couldn't commit to three weeks solid, partially due to the aforementioned fashion contract, I missed out on an awesome Olympic installation gig at the Grande Bibliothèque, "Breaking the Ice", also worth $1 500.

5) I have a bunch of clients who are "maybes", but haven't committed to a fixed date yet, either because their projects aren't starting yet or they are busy themselves. I have to be patient and/or follow up with most of them.

To make matters worse, things are really tight financially right now, and I'm seeing very little return on the effort I'm putting forth.  In my persistent can-do mind, though, that just means I have to dig deeper and get more creative to find solutions to attract more clients. 

IN OTHER JOBS:

Remember my vow to make $100 off of the stock market? Well, I went to the bank a few Saturdays ago and while I was there, the financial advisor's computer crashed so she couldn't open my account!  Just my luck!  She was supposed to call me back last week, but it looks like I'll have to follow-up with her as well.

And my blessed, zany aerobics class: I haven't booked the space yet! I was going to do so last week, but my birthday and the redesign got in the way. I'll have to set a date soon!

Cheryl's "Get a Facebook Fan Page Following of 1000 Members" and I'll toss ya a hundred bucks" has stalled at 171 members. I don't want to begin irritating people to get them to join because I want everyone's participation to be voluntary and lighthearted... unlike a bag of weasels!  Ha!  Bit ya ear there!

I also announced yesterday via Facebook that if you can find me a job for $115, I will give you a commission of 15%. That applies to any individual contract of any amount in excess of $100, for the next little while! So you get to be like my one of my agents: making a few calls, sending me out and laughing manically while I do the dirty work.

I will not get into a bag of weasels for $115,

Million Dollar Job?

OzLeap, the person who asked me what I was going to do after One Hundred Jobs is completed, told me about Alex Tew, the Million Dollar Homepage creator. Alex, who was broke and looking to pay for his first semester at University, sold advertising on his web page Milliondollarhomepage.com for a dollar a pixel, with the advertiser's logo sized at a 100 pixels minimum.  He wound up netting over a million dollars with his project, by giving advertisers a novel approach to online advertising, which was made irresistible by the worldwide buzz generated by his unique project. I hope to do the same!

Here's a video about his million dollar idea, and my thanks again to OzLeap:



I don't know if you all noticed, but there is now a spot open in my "Sponsors" section on the top right hand side of my web page. Right now, the spot is available for ten days to any advertiser willing to be the first to part with $100. The entire square is available for $300 (Sorry, Matt). I will also write an article about your business and show up to interview you, if you live in Montreal.


Yours in precious pixels,

Aimee

All Over The Place

Holy Smokes. I am in-un-dated. I feel like I'm dividing myself between a hundred important tasks and it's a little unpleasant, unfortunately. I even re-edited yesterday's post about Matt's half-completed website! And that's not even 1/20th of it. I have people to follow up with, grants to apply for, jobs to book and people to see and I have to maintain a half-decent life offline at the same time!

I need to get through it all, one job at a time.

My live broadcast on Ustream.com last night was absolute crap. I think I am going to need to upgrade the speed of my Internet service if I am to continue live broadcasting and I need put in a little more planning, as to not depend solely on the interactivity of my live audience. No one wants to watch a choppy, pause-filled show. The plus of Ustream is that it's interactive, but with a delay of 40 seconds caused by my poor connection, it's more like a bad conversation with an egomaniac at a bar that's too loud. And she's drunk on imported beer! lol!

I did, however, just record a live segment about an hour ago. I edited together a clip via my usual flipcam and here is what went down, via Youtube:



This is the useful link to how to taste beer that I found on ehow.com: Tasting Beer.

The beer that I drank was X.O. Cognac beer by Benedictus. It was absolutely amazing: just sweet enough, with strong notes of honey, ripe fruit and caramel, and a smooth, pleasantly unctuous finish. I gave it a 9.5/10. I did a little research and it won the grand prize of the public vote at the "Mondial de la Bière" in 2000, 2001, and 2003.

IN OTHER JOBS:

A usual, I need more jobs, so I created another job posting in Montreal Craigslist's Artist section. I will also post again on Kijiji tomorrow and Helpareporter.com.

I got one response from a guy or girl called OzLeap, but it was more of a question:

Hey,


Thats an interesting angle, so what will you do after the 100 jobs are completed?


I will sleep. And cry. And send on my completed manuscript to my book editor. And wait for my million dollar cheque to arrive.

LOL.

Happy Saturday, loves! Hopefully you are more composed than I!!!!!

Enjoying my 7:30 p.m. networking dinner at Capriccio with The Social Woman,

Job 17: Social Networking Identity

I'm going to hearken back to my as-of-yet completed Job 17: designing male model Matt Aymar's website.

So far, we have created a very simple, easily modified, drag-and-drop HTML Yola site, to launch Matt's online social networking identity, gradually increase his fan base and strengthen his personal brand.

Instead relying on the PR of his modeling agency, I encouraged Matt to create his own website and start his self-branding as a fitness model blogger and vlogger.

I think that if you are in the entertainment or modeling industry, or any business where you are selling your self or your brand, it is absolutely irresponsible to not use the current self-promotional tools that are readily available online for free.

I know there are an infinite number of sites and methods to promote yourself online, so here are the social networking and new media essentials for anyone wanting to promote themselves or their brand online, in 5 simple steps:

1) Decide on your name: You will use this name across all platforms (social media or new media websites) like Twitter, Facebook, Blogger, Flickr, and Tumblr, or to comment on other people's blogs, so try to get one that hasn't been taken, AND REGISTER IT RIGHT AWAY.

Also, try to make your name as specific to your project as possible. The title "One Hundred Jobs" is a good example, I think!

2) Create a simple website: It doesn't have to be all flash in Flash, but it should give a good idea of who you are and what you or your project is about.

It also helps to establish the goal of the website: is it to sell yourself, your project or actual merchandise? Is it "You-commerce" or e-commerce or a little bit of both?

Matt and I have opted for "You-commerce", or building brand equity of oneself, for now. He wants to start blogging and vlogging on YouTube while he travels for modeling. We may get into the business of Cafe Press t-shirts or signed romance novels, later.

To register a domain name, I recommend that you go to GoDaddy.com. On Yola.com there are very simple steps to creating and hosting your website, including how to "point your domain name" to be hosted at Yola. For beginners, it's extremely easy!

3) Set up your essential social media accounts:

Twitter: Send out daily updates and connect with similar minded people in 140 characters or less.

Facebook: Setting up a fan page takes five minutes, and if you become Popular enough online, marketers will want to see it before dishing out sponsorship dollars.

Flickr: If you have photos, Flickr is a great way to manage your media while connecting with other users.

Tumblr: I know I'm using Blogger, and am also a fan of Wordpress for more attractive designs, but Tumblr seems to be one of the more community driven blogging services. You also get points to connect with other users!

YouTube: People love to watch other people rant! Buy a cheap digital flip camera at Best Buy, and even if you can't edit, one shots of a rant will help to get you seen!

4) Create content on a regular basis and distribute through all of your social media channels: Twitter, Blogger or Tumblr, Flickr, and Youtube. Repeat daily.

5) Make friends! Once you're out there with your media, make sure you pay attention to other people's media, as well. As much as new media and the new web is personality driven, it's also community driven. If you have nothing to say, comment on someone else's work: their blog, their photo stream, their tweets! Try to also find forums of like minded users and comment there. You can then bring them back to your site later on.

And that would be it for a simple online self-promotional social media strategy. Obviously, the more crafted your content, the better! But any level of quality can jive online, so long as you are consistent and you are true to yourself and your market. if you work hard enough, I believe You-commerce can generate substantial revenue!

I'll be back online tonight LIVE at 7 p.m. EST for BLOOD, SWEAT AND BEERS on USTREAM!


See you then!!!!

Power Outage

My apartment was without power for most of the day, so I didn't have the opportunity to finish writing about self-promotion via new media. I'll get to that juicy topic tomorrow! I also had some good comments on my Gynad networking post. I'll address those too, when I'm less bleary-eyed.

Thanks to everyone who joined my Facebook Fan Page thus far: I'm up to 160 members! Only 840 to go until Cheryl forks over $100!

Coaxing people to join my page is more of a time consuming job than I thought it would be. I can see why some people don't want to join, though: I identify with being overwhelmed by the omnipresent marketing messages and selfish invitations on social networking sites. Random solicitations can be annoying,

...BUT I'M DIFFERENT, I SWEAR. MY CAUSE IS COOL! /sarcasm

At least One Hundred Jobs expires at Job 100 or on December 31, 2010... whichever comes first! You only have a limited time obligation to moi and my mischief! So get it while it lasts, Slapchop-style!



IN OTHER JOBS:

The FLYOD photo shoot originally offering me $2800 is a 100% fake-cheque scam. Read this:

No FLYOD, everything is not well-stated or well-written. Why must scammers undermine their game with shitty syntax? With all the money they make, surely they could hire someone like me for $100 to edit their correspondence, right?

I am amused that not only are there Nigerian money scams, but also Nigerian Modeling scams. Ah Internets, land of strange money-making strategies.

...like 100 Jobs!

New Age, New Design

YOOOOO! Today's my 32nd birthday. I'm spending it the old fashioned way: editing the HTML of my new blog template in Frontpage and screaming at the computer! OPA!



There are a few things I don't like about my new design and can't figure out how to fix yet, like having the white area below the title of this entry visible, even if you don't highlight the area (with left click on the mouse and drag). Try it. You'll see the time this was posted, categories, and number of comments. I can't find the #colour option anywhere in the code to change this text from cream like the background TO ANY OTHER GOSHDARN COLOUR.

HELP ME!

I'm gonna go post on Yahoo Answers, too.

TO ANNOUNCE JOB 28!

My good friend Cheryl Roett, a top-selling CIR real estate agent in Calgary, Alberta, has put up $100 as a job/prize for me if I can get 1000 people to join my Facebook Fan Page. With the new design of my blog, it's as simple as clicking on the Facebook icon at the top of the post. If it doesn't work, please let me know. Alternatively, you can find my Facebook Fan Page if you type One Hundred Jobs into the Facebook search bar.

PLEASE JOIN OR GET YOUR FRIENDS TO JOIN MY FAN PAGE AND YOU OFFICIALLY BECOME ONE OF MY EMPLOYERS FOR 100 JOBS! You're paying me TEN CENTS WITHOUT OPENING YOUR WALLET! Hell, I'll credit you in a special episode for Job 28, once we hit the 1000 member mark!

That's all for now, folks. This re-design is eating away at my chocolate cake time!


Much love,


Aimee

Job 29: Networking for Gynad.com

Please note: If my blog design looks funktastic today, it's because I'm editing and trying out a new, spiffier template. Please bear with me while I go into Beta/ what the hell is that on top of that and why is this a giant design mess? mode. Spanks you!

Yesterday night, I headed off to a networking event for the Metropolitan Montreal Board of Trade to complete Job 29 for Pierre Bellemare of Gynad.com.

Pierre is actively seeking new clients and was trying to obtain leads to sell his "Human Billboard" concept. For those of you who are new to One Hundred Jobs, here's a video of my first Gynad experience showing a branded Gynad unitard in action:



I didn't wear the unitard last night, and was met with a hefty dose of scepticism that I didn't experience the first time I wore the bodysuit. I commented to Pierre that it was a "tough crowd". Then again, the majority of members present were corporate professionals in industries such as banking, insurance, and financial consulting. A banker is more apt to be comfortable with traditional (read: less sexy) promotional marketing strategies. Though not as risqué (or as sexualized) as bodypainted logos on bare breasted models, Gynad's skin-tight lycra bodysuit is definitely edgy and unique.

However, some of the thorough and honest feedback we received at the event, especially from Chabo Communications, will help Pierre to improve his concept and properly define his business plan. I have come to realize that the reason business plans exist is to evaluate and prove the feasibility and profitability of your business. I don't think Gynad has completely defined its business plan, its services or its market, yet.

Pierre likely needs to select a new name for his "human billboard" concept if he is to sell his product and his model placement services. Gynad, as is probably pretty obvious to most, evokes thoughts of any words beginning with the Vadgy McVadgerson GYN prefix. Gynad as a name is more maternity ward than resto-bar. Unless Pierre wants his first client to be Canesten, I think he will have to change his name.

Secondly, Gynad will also have to become more involved with the creation of unique, comprehensive, street marketing campaigns to pitch directly to brands and sponsors if the company is going to turn a large profit. Otherwise, Gynad will be limited to printing the odd bodysuit and booking the occasional model.

Likewise, corporate clients expect to have KPIs or Key Performance Indicators present in their street marketing programs, substantiating their efficacy and translating into a boost in their sales figures.

For instance, if a marketing company creates a coupon-based sampling program, the KPI is built into the program. For other mediums (or the new term "platforms"), like traditional print advertising, the metrics have already been proven and established. With Gynad's human billboard, however, there are no integrated KPIs to prove the efficacy of Pierre's non-traditional marketing device. He needs to address that weakness if he is to acquire big name (read: big paying) corporate clients. My thanks again to Luc and André at Chabo Communications for providing such helpful and practical advice.

Tangentially, The Montreal Board of Trade event reminded me that many artists, though highly creative and innovative, lack complete knowledge of how the business world works. Widely, artists suffer as a result of economic ignorance.

Ideas and products that many artists create, however brilliant and unique, often lack a market, a strategy and therefore financial viability. I think I have begun to apply this "capitalist" mentality to my projects and my life.

In my opinion, an artist only has so much time to create, and if one of your goals is to turn a profit on your talents (and subsist on them entirely), you absolutely need to reflect and analyze the ROI (return on investment) of your projects as if they were a business. If not, or you may be wasting your time and energy in executing cool ideas with zero markets.

I am at the stage where I no longer want to waste my time on niche endeavours. Increasingly, I want to channel my creative energy to create a profitable business, instead of piecemeal creative work. No, this doesn't undermine the integrity of One Hundred Jobs, which is an adventure in temporary contracts, but it does have me reflecting on my bigger professional choices outside of the scope of this project.

If you're an artist or an actor, I strongly urge you to start thinking about your work, and your biggest asset, yourself, as a business. I think it's better to choose projects with bigger returns than to be starving on principle. That doesn't mean that you have to lose your artistic integrity, but it does mean getting smarter and stricter about your creative investments.


Aimee.

P.S. Networking events sometimes remind me of the Eurythmics' song "Sweet Dreams":




Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Every body's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Every body's looking for something

I think you could also also replace the words "sweet dreams" with Twitter in the social media sphere. lol.

Job 30: New Couture

For Job 30, I was hired by a new designer, Erika, to model the first three pieces of clothing that she has ever designed and sewn. What an honour! She needed to photograph her work for the portfolio she's creating to get into Ryerson University's fashion design program.

A good friend and designer, Nicole Picard, hooked me up with the job and she gives private sewing lessons. You can contact her on her Fairyesque Design blog if you want to learn how to become the next Alexander McQueen!

Here is the video of the job with a shout out to George, the Spanker:



And the photos resulting from the shoot, shot by Emily Gan:

Detailing of blue ruffle shirt.

Inside of rose gold brocade Victorian-inspired bolero jacket.

Bodice of taffeta cocktail dress.

Blue ruffle shirt by the fireplace.

Attitude on the sofa.

Glamorous lounging. Emily Gan, the photographer, told me to "make your legs smile". Voila. My smiling legs. Better then my shocked face on a Ukrainian Butt!

And that's a wrap! I am happy to have been an integral part of a new designer's professional development. That's what makes One Hundred Jobs so powerful: I'm providing many other artists an affordable service for their projects and passing on my expertise.

IN OTHER JOBS:

Over the weekend, I got a sketchy job offer via Model Mayhem. It started with this e-mail:

My name is Floyd,professional photographer/Manager.I've a client who wants to update her Catalog with her new year Fashion outfits release in Canada & I'm interested in you for the shooting.your pay for the job will be $2,800.If you're interested get back to me asap via email flyodfotos@yeahRIGHT.com

Thanks
flyodfotos


The first red flag is the abnormally high rate for the job. The second red flag is his Nigerian Scamorama grammar. The third is his name: FLY-OD? Not FLOYD?

If any company is willing to pay $2800, they can go through an agency and hire an experienced model with the perfect measurements. Why would a photographer use Model Mayhem, a somewhat amateur modelling site, to source models if he has a reasonable budget? It doesn't make sense to me.

Curious to find out more, I wrote him back, asking for more details. He wrote back almost immediately:

I wrote this response a few minutes ago:

Hi Flyod,

I thought the payment for the job was $2 800... why do I only get $700? What date are you looking to shoot in Montreal? Can I be paid in cash, the same day, as we don't have terms established yet?

Do you have a photographer's website? What country are you from, please?

Take care,

Aimee.

* * *

We'll see if he writes back, but I'm assuming it's a junk offer. Too bad, so sad, could use a couple grand!

--

In a couple of hours, I'm going to go complete Job 29. I'm working for Pierre Bellemare of Gynad.com again (the unitard modelling job) at a networking evening for the Quebec Board of Trade. I don't think I'll be wearing the infamous white unitard, but I will be trying to get Pierre some new clients!

AND FINALLY, all the details for Job 28 will be revealed tomorrow. ANOTHER CLUE: If you join my Facebook Fan Page, you are already part of the job. So JOIN! It's my birthday in two days!

Follow moi, the human billboard job search,


Aimee.
