Shownotes

When does your editing business invest in new equipment? Is it when productivity lags? Or is it merely a matter of budget? How do you know when it’s REALLY time to replace equipment? And then what determines how much you spend?

We help Bryan decide whether to purchase a new Mac computer or stick with his old one. Plus, file storage, video editing, and impostor syndrome!

Questions to ask before you buy that thing…  

  • Is this an emotional desire or practical need?
  • How long will your investment to last?
  • Is your need for the gear long or short term?
  • Is there a work-around?

When you spend more time crashing and rebooting than editing, it’s time to get a new computer. 

Also covered...

  • We get into file storage because you can never back up enough. 
  • Bryan is NOT a PC guy. 
  • What video software is the easiest? 
  • Daniel discusses his recent experience with Impostor Syndrome… notice how we approach it through awareness and practical experience. 
  • We share the value of accountability and you’ll probably learn a new word. 
  • Getting inspiration from others who are doing similar things as you isn’t really stealing… or is it? 
  • Should Jennifer do a course? (yes, I think she should)
  • Jennifer, a skeptic, gives a review of Descript 
  • Descript Tip: Use Ctrl/Cmd + F to find a word or phrase to delete en masse
