We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful RICH LARU. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with RICH below.
Alright, RICH thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Let’s kick things off with your mission – what is it and what’s the story behind why it’s your mission?
My brand’s mission is unwavering—to remain authentic while reaching unparalleled levels of success with no bounds. I prioritize quality over quantity because I have the ability to do so. I greet everyone I work with respect, regardless of their job title. It’s crucial to remember that the individuals we hire to create the ultimate visual picture matter the most. My mission is perpetual elevation, coupled with inspiration, standing alongside the squad that contributed along the way.”
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I entered the industry as a director, initially establishing my brand as a TV host. While traveling the world to interview celebrities and building a hosting reel to evolve into the next TV personality, I acquired knowledge in production and post-production. Along the way, I learned every job title, from conceptualization to the big screen.
In the realm of creating and storytelling, I carve out a space of innovation. Disrupting conventional notions of greatness and value, I blend these perspectives, shaping the overall narrative. What I envision, I bring to life, ensuring an iconic moment that defies expectations. Despite the challenges faced on the journey to this present moment, I take pride in never compromising my values or identity to conform. I remain true to my mission, emphasizing quality in every aspect and expressing gratitude for each experience along the way.
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
Learning the importance of gratitude and surrendering to the present moment was a crucial lesson. To be authentically oneself, being present is key. Reflecting on my journey, I now realize the significance of focusing less on the future, releasing the weight of the past, and embracing the opportunities in front of me.
Furthermore, part of this growth involved unlearning the tendency to let the industry’s reality and the perspectives of peers define my own reality. Instead, I’ve come to understand the importance of charting my course based on authenticity and personal values, free from external influences
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
My go-to for building clientele has gotta be the creativity I bring – it’s all about being original. I want folks I interact with not just to hear my ideas but to really see them, you know? It’s about staying true to myself, ’cause let’s face it, people hire you ’cause they dig your work, they like you, or you’ve got that public vibe that they can brag about, like, “Yeah, that guy did my video!”
When you nail all three, it’s not just about the work; it’s about the whole experience of working with you. That’s what’s been spreading the word for me and getting me to where I am now.
