Ep192: [CASE STUDY] How a Single Outreach Email Led to a Dream Job at Marvel | with Matthew Farrugia

<p><a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9349361/" rel="nofollow"><strong>Matthew Farrugia</strong></a> is an assistant editor in Hollywood who’s recent two projects are both so high profile and high security, I can’t name them yet (Hint: They’re for Apple+ and Marvel). What’s crazy is that despite his young age (and more impressively his extremely short amount of time in the industry) Matthew went from working in a paint store to landing his dream job working for Marvel in just short of 2 years.TWO. YEARS. After becoming a student of my Optimizer coaching &amp; mentorship program, Matthew quickly learned the fundamental mistakes he was making with his cold outreach that were leading to zero success. Let’s just say once he learned <a href="https://optimizeyourself.me/workshop-networkingninja" rel="nofollow"><strong>how to become a networking ninja</strong></a> the game totally changed for him.</p><p>Whether you’ve been in the industry for 2 years or 20, you’ve most likely experienced the frustrating bridge between where you are now and where you want to be next. And inevitably you won’t bridge that gap alone - you’ll either need a mentor, an advocate, or ideally both. If you’re tired of writing cold outreach emails that don’t get responses - or at least useful ones - this conversation will illuminate what it is specifically that you might be getting wrong, and more importantly how to do outreach the right way.</p><p>My interview with Matthew will cover the exact cold outreach email networking steps he learned in the Optimizer program that took him from working in a paint store to, as he calls it, “working jobs he thought would be his endgame.” (pun intended Marvel fans) You’ll learn what a great outreach message should consist of, how to write a great follow up message, and you’ll also learn the key mindset shifts it takes to turn your ‘failures’ into wins and make the most out of every moment in your career.</p><h3><strong>Want to Build The Dream Network That Leads to Your Dream Job?</strong></h3><p><a href="http
