Most entrepreneurs go after their passion and dominate a business and move on to the next. Then they become a serial entrepreneur, creating multiple successful businesses or just exploring new fields. So part of being a serial entrepreneur myself, I am heavily thinking about getting involved in the entertainment industry. I had a thought last night, while I was thinking about ways that I could possibly explore getting involved in the entertainment industry because we all know it is a very lucrative field. The idea was for the next season of 'The Apprentice' -yes the very famous show which is produced by Donald Trump- the billionaire himself. The concept would be to bring actual serial entrepreneurs onto the show and have them work for Trump. It would be quite different than any other season because previously, there was usually a mix of entrepreneurs and people who have never owned their own business. And currently- the show is filmed around a bunch of celebrities.
What about the ratings?
With any business, without repeat satisfied customers, there would be no profitability. Since the show is a business, Donald Trump has to consider what would work and what wouldn't. In my opinion, who wouldn't want to watch a bunch of successful serial entrepreneurs working with each other- or arguing (etc.) with each other?
The Roundup
It might be hard to round up successful people wanting to appear on the show. But- I'll be the first to volunteer. Since the show couldn't consist of people who are CEOs of companies and don't actually own the company the work for, it limits the choices. But I still think if Donald Trump could get Dennis Rodman to come on the show, what does it take to round up some regular multi-millionaires?
To Conclude:
I personally think the show would be a hit. Serial entrepreneurs are in a whole different basket than any other crowd that has appeared on the show. I know a lot of entrepreneurs who have had great success and might have trouble actually taking orders from someone else for once. There would probably a lot of battling and ruthless business going on- but isn't that what people want to watch?
If the show ever materialized and I went on...I think I could make it to be THE APPRENTICE. Do you?
Leave your comments below and let me know what you think of the concept and maybe I can get Trump to consider...perhaps even having me appear on the show. I know all the readers would love that, right?
