#316 - Wipe Your Feet at the Door Before You Enter the Theater

Business Side of Music

You get on stage, and you’re not sure what you’re supposed to do. Is it a matter of just singing the songs? Do you create a conversation with the audience? Or do you suffer from some form of stage fright, maybe to the point where you think you’re going to throw up once you’re on stage (or before)? Joining us today is Bill Cakmis. A seasoned professional with decades of experience, he’s more than a performance coach. He’s what many in the industry call a “Show Doc”.

If it’s on stage, at a podium, or in front of a camera, Bill Cakmis is hired to create it, develop it, enhance it, or fix it. For over 30 years, Bill has coached singers, actors, anchors, talk show hosts, politicians, doctors, lawyers, CEOs, and athletes. His clients include Grammy, Oscar, Tony, and Emmy winners. Bill has partnered with major film studios, production companies, TV stations and National Cable stations (CNN, FOX, The Weather Channel) to create productions that are unique, creative, and powerful. Bill’s full resume is extensive, including acting, writing, directing, and motivational speaking.
