I found 11 remote job companies that offer a free work from home job set up. That's right, they will literally pay for your work from home job technical expenses. Anything from the computer you use, the phone you use, the headset you use, and in some cases even things like internet. So with all these people saying that companies don't want people to work from home, why is it that there are some companies doing this? Well, it totally makes sense because the companies save a ton of money when they don't have to rent buildings and pay for all the expenses involved in that. So if you appreciate me doing these types of videos, let me know by gently tapping that like button and let's jump into it with number one on the list, which is going to be a clinical CSR, also known as a customer service representative. And the company is going to be American Specialty Health Incorporated. So I think everybody knows what a customer service representative is and a clinical customer service representative basically does the same thing, except they work in the healthcare field. So you're going to be helping patients with their healthcare related questions. An American Specialty Health Incorporated, or ASHI, has been recognized repeatedly for the quality, reliability, and safety of their programs and services by national organizations such as the NCQA, the URAC, and as an employer, they've also received many rewards for walking the talk of healthy living and they offer a ton of different perks and benefits for working for them. I'll put those up on the screen. You can check them out if you'd like to. Now typically for this position, they start people off at $15 an hour, which is definitely on the lower side, but they don't require a college degree or previous experience and it's a relatively easy job to land. So yeah, this one's pretty good. I'll give it a seven out of 10 opportunity score. Next is going to be a front end examiner. And this is actually going to be for the same company, ASHI. And basically you're responsible for accurate review and input of patient data. So this job is going to have a lot of the same perks and benefits that I mentioned with the last one, and they start people off at $14 an hour. Now it does say that they require two years of data entry experience, but with that being said, I've helped tons of people get into these types of jobs and it's almost never true. I always recommend to apply anyways. And this company will provide the work from home setup for you as long as you have an internet connection. So yeah, this is another pretty good one, a pretty good company to work with, probably not something that you want to do for the rest of your life, but it can be a good job to get into the healthcare industry and get some experience. I'll give this one a 7 out of 10 opportunity score as well. Next is going to be a commercial account executive. And this is going to be for the company Articulate. And basically you're going to be responsible for reaching out to customers as well as prospects and seeing if the company can help them with any of their products or services. And Articulate is a leading SaaS provider of creator platforms for online workplace training. This position is fully remote, meaning you can work from anywhere in the world that you want to as long as you have an internet connection. And they say that they will actually help you set up your home office with awesome equipment and technology. And for this position, you're going to make anywhere between $100,000 and $150,000 a year. And on top of that, you have phenomenal benefits. I'll put them up on the screen and you can check them out if you'd like to. Now this position does require experience in sales. This is not an entry level position, but if you've had experience in sales before, this could be a great one for you to apply for. And they also have some lower level positions that you can check out. And by the way, this company has great ratings on Glassdoor. They're rated 4.3 out of five stars, which is phenomenal. And 78% of the employees would recommend the company to a friend. So this is a really good one. I'm going to give it an 8.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Now, by the way, commercial account executives are in what's known as a tech sales position. And tech sales is one of the most lucrative career paths that you can go down. And the entry level role in tech sales is known as business development representative. And this company often does hire for those roles. And I've actually helped and interviewed a bunch of people on this channel that have been able to get into tech sales roles, and they didn't need a college degree or previous experience. For instance, Kevin was able to go from a laid off construction worker to getting a job in tech sales in 29 days. And he made $65,000 in his first year. And he and everyone else that I've interviewed on the channel were able to do it through a company called Course Careers. And Course Careers offers free training on how to get into tech sales. And they pretty much answer every question you would have about tech sales and whether or not it's a good fit for you. And you can check out that free training by clicking the link down in the description, as well as the pinned comment below. Next is going to be a customer service representative for CVS Health.  This one, you are going to be working for a healthcare company. So it's going to be health related. And CVS Health is one of the biggest healthcare companies in the world. And if you're from the United States, you've probably gone to a CVS pharmacy before. And the company provides the equipment and training for you. Now, for this role, they typically pay between $17 and $29 an hour.  And it's not too hard to get the job. They do prefer previous experience, but you don't have to have a college degree. This one's pretty good. I'm going to go ahead and give it a 7.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Next on the list is going to be an insurance agent. And you're going to be working for the company Progressive. And insurance agents basically help people figure out what insurance would be best for them. And Progressive is a combined personal and auto insurance company. And they are hiring like crazy right now. And what do you know, they actually provide you with a computer and they have really good benefits. I'll put it up on the screen and they pay about $21 per hour. So yeah, this is another really good one to look into. I'm going to give it an 8 out of 10 opportunity score. By the way, share this video with a friend or family member that you think could benefit from it or somebody who you just want to get their opinion on some of the careers. Next is going to be a members services research associate. And it's going to be for the company Health Advocate. And basically you're going to be helping out patients with things like website help, health plan sites and health related questions. Then you're going to be documenting any issues they have and maintaining department files. And Health Advocate Incorporated is a US national health advocacy, patient advocacy and assistance company. And they've won a bunch of different rewards for giving great service. Here are some perks and benefits that they offer. They start you off at about $15 an hour. And you don't need a college degree or previous experience to get started. So this one is pretty good. I'll go ahead and give it a 7.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Next is going to be an inside sales position. And it's going to be for the company JJ Keller and Associates Incorporated. And you're basically going to be helping out customers with their needs that are related to the products and services of the company. And if it's a good fit, you are going to be selling those products and services to them. Now they pay about $53,000 to $62,000 a year. Plus they have a monthly uncapped incentive program. So you can make a lot more than that if you're a high performer. They also offer a bunch of different benefits, including free IT and computer equipment provided. Now they don't require a college degree or previous experience, but they do prefer people who have a little bit of experience in something like customer service. So this is another really good one. I'll give it an 8.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Next is going to be a travel advisor for the AAA club alliance. And you're going to be helping the customers of the company with their travel related needs. And this is actually a very old company. They were founded in 1902 that's been an advocate for motorists, say for roads, vehicles and better educated drivers as well as the rights of travelers. Now they have some really good benefits and perks. They pay about $17 to $22.50 per hour and computer equipment is provided by the company. Now this one is a little bit harder to get into. You are going to need about a year and a half of experience. So for that reason, I'm going to go ahead and give this one a 7.5 out of 10 opportunity score. By the way, if you haven't done it already, go ahead and hit that subscribe button and ring the notification bell so that you don't miss out because I have some great videos coming up. Next on the list is going to be a sales development representative for the company Shortpoint. And like I mentioned before, sales development representatives have tons of opportunities. And this is basically the entry level sales job for the technology industry. And when you combine sales, which is probably one of the most valuable skills you can learn with the technology industry, which is probably the best industry you can work in, that can be a recipe for success. Now they pay about $76,000 a year plus commission. They have a good amount of perks and benefits and work equipment is provided. So this is another really good one. I'm going to give it a 9.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Next is going to be a happiness engineer for the company Automatic. And this is basically someone who provides WordPress related technical support. And this is basically a company that hires a bunch of different technology related positions.  And they also pay for your home office setup and co-working allowances. And if you're working from a coffee shop, they're even going to pay for your coffee. So yeah, this is an awesome position and is also an awesome company to work for. I'm going to go ahead and give this one an 8.5 out of 10 opportunity score. Next is going to be a patient coordinator for the company Team Health. And basically you're going to be the first point of contact with patients. And they're going to be seeking medical support from the hospital, the clinic or the doctor that they work with. And Team Health is a physician led, patient focused company. And they say that they're founded by doctors for doctors. And their success stems from their ingenuity, dedicated teamwork and integrity of their workers.  They pay about $15 an hour starting out. And one of their only requirements is that you have enough room for two 27 inch computer monitors, a computer, a keyboard, a mouse and a phone, which is all company provided. So yeah, that's pretty cool. I'm going to give this one a 7 out of 10 opportunity score. By the way, I made a video that actually went viral. And it's called the 17 work from home job companies that are almost always hiring. And you can check that out by clicking right here.

It's Kim from Psych2Go and today we're going to be talking about personality disorders. The personality disorders I'll be discussing in this video are schizoid personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder. So for schizoid personality disorder, to get a diagnosis of this disorder you need two, have one, no desire or enjoyment from close relationships, two, to prefer soul activities, three, have little interest in sexual activities with others, four, have little pleasure for activities in general, five, does not have a close friendship, six, praise does not affect them, and seven have a flattened effect. Schizoid personality disorder has been shown to be related to other mental illnesses as well. One study finding that major depressive disorder in adolescence is strongly predicted schizoid personality disorder later on in adult life. It could also be caused by the environment of fetus and habits in the womb. A scientist examined rates of schizoid personality disorder in men who had been born during the Dutch winter famine. It appeared that being exposed to famine and thus having lower quality of nutrition in the womb increased the risk of developing schizoid personality disorder. Another study looking into social and environmental factors which increased the risk of schizoid personality disorder found that having a mother who is a perfectionist greatly increased this risk as well. There are few treatments available for schizoid personality disorder. However, due to the overlap of symptoms of schizoid personality disorder with schizophrinia, often anti-psychotics are also prescribed to help with these symptoms. Anti-social personality disorder. This disorder is closely linked to psychopathy. For an official diagnosis of this disease, a person must have meet three or more of these criteria. One, failure to conform to social normalities. Two, repeated deception. Three, impulsive viddy. Four, aggression. Five, disregard for their safety or safety of others. Six, constant irresponsibility and seven, a lack of remorse. They must also be over the age of 18 years old and have had evidence of conduct disorder before the age of 15 and their occurrences in anti-social behavior must not be due to mania or schizophrenia. ASPD is a personality disorder which receives the most attention both in media and in research and this is probably due to its link with criminality.  Low levels of serotonin have been implicated in the development of ASPD especially in those who are fairly young. A study found a high anti-social behavior score in a child exposed to more severe physical punishment and an absent father. They also found having a non-working mother also predicted a higher level for those in a low income family. This is probably due to the stresses of poverty. Damage or dysfunction to the prefrontal cortex means the individual cannot make moral or social judgments therefore it could possibly also be linked to damage in the prefrontal cortex of childhood because that kid could have possibly never developed moral judgment in the normal way and thus have developed ASPD. Often treatment for the disorder is given in a prison setting due to the link of criminality of this disease even though not all patients with this disease are criminals. This leads to problems however as the patients may act as if the treatment is working in an attempt to reduce their sentence. Borderline personality disorder. People with BPD are said to have very black and white thinking and often have other disorders or symptoms such as depression, anxiety. Those with a diagnosis of BPD firstly may have impairments in self functioning either through their identity or in self direction and this often means that they have problems with who they are. Secondly, there may be impairments in relationships either due to deficits in empathy or intimacy or they may also intensely fear abandonment. Thirdly, there may be a negative effect characterized by unstable emotional experiences, anxiousness, separation anxiety or depression and fourthly. There may be deficits in disinhibition characterized by impulsivity or risk taking which can lead to rash decisions. Studies have found that about 65% of BPD is due to genetics. It is also very strongly linked to childhood abuse and particularly sexual childhood abuse. Psychotherapy is generally the primary treatment used. Generally medication will not be used to treat these core problems but can be used to treat the related symptoms such as depression and anxiety. Narcissistic personality disorder. This is essentially an extreme version of egocentricism. The criteria for diagnosis of NPD are as following. 1. Have an impairment in self-identity or self-direction and interpersonal functioning, empathy or intimacy. 2. Pathological personality traits such as grandiosity or attention seeking. 3. These impairments must be stable across time. 4. These impairments must not be due to social norms or a development stage. And finally number five these impairments must not be due to drugs or any other medical condition. Clearly, having NPD would affect someone's lives negatively as they would struggle both internally and with their external relationships. There are eight possible factors during childhood which could lead to NPD forming an adulthood. These are 1. An oversensitive temperament at birth, 2. Being given excessive admiration and not realistic feedback, 3. The child receiving excessive praise or criticism, 4. The child is overindulged and overvalued by the parent, 5. The child is perceived by the parent as having exceptionally good looks or abilities, 6. Emotional abuse, 7. Unreliable caregiving from the parents and finally 8. Learning maladaptive behaviors from peers or parents. It could also be due to brain abnormalities. It has been found that those with NPD have gray matter abnormalities in their left anterior insula. It is unknown whether this abnormality is due to the disease or causes the disease, however. Thank you so much for watching guys, that's the end of this video. I hope that this video taught you some things about personality disorders and also that you enjoyed it. Make sure to subscribe to Psych2Go's channel.

A major issue is helping communities consolidate their forest property rights. Over the last 10 years, Bolivia has gone through a process of recognizing property rights of forest dependent people, both indigenous people and agro-extractive communities, people that work with Brazil nuts. Well, one of the major issues is developing methods to help people document their customary forest rights. If they document their rights, they can then place this on the table to negotiate, to work out accords that allow their livelihoods to be maintained. Well, often writing down who is using the forest and how they're using the forest, but it also almost needs to be included a process of mapping. Doing participatory mapping, there's technology available that can really empower local people to map the forests that they use. Well, they're mapping. The key is training local people to map their forest. They're the only people that understand that traditional rights. As an outsider, it would be difficult for me to go in and define the local tree tenure. It's defined by local perceptions and norms, and since they're the people that use those norms, they need to document it. A basis for the livelihoods of people all over Bolivia, the people that live in forests. In the north, communities depend on the extraction and collection of Brazil nuts as a major source of income. Throughout the country, forests provide a major source of game meat, material for housing. They provide a basis for a large part of the subsistence of people all over rural areas of Bolivia. Several different sources. There's a lot of pressure for logging for high-grade timber. Often, loggers moving into a forest create conditions that make the forest more susceptible to forest fire. There's also an expansion of agriculture and ranching, the pressure to produce more and more soybeans, the expansion of pasture areas by ranching interests all create pressure on the forest where communities live. I find it fascinating the mixture of traditional forest uses and the way they are able to link up to market economies. I find it very fascinating the adaptive capacity of forest communities and how they organize to react to the changing conditions they face. Well, for example, communities right now in the north of Bolivia have actively taken part in the agrarian reform and helping to demarcate their territories. However, introducing methods to allow them to map the traditional forest uses, they often find that there's a disjuncture between what forest they use and what forest they've gained rights to. There's no way to go back and redo the agrarian reform. However, it's possible to generate information about these problems and these mismatches.


Hi guys, what is up? Welcome to my channel. So for today's video, I have never been so excited for a video. I am a part of a really major Pat McGrath collab today. So here is what you are in for. Me and six other lovely creators, we have decided to do a full face get ready of Pat McGrath, each using a different palette so you get to see several different looks today.

Because if you're subscribed to me, you know how obsessed I am with Pat McGrath and I know so many of you are as well. I have this idea where I wanted to create a full face get ready of me using just Pat McGrath and I know there are so many amazing creators here who are also just as much in love with Pat McGrath as I am.  And then I got to give it to my girl Kelsey, Kelsey Brianna J. She definitely took the reins on this one and she was like, here's what we're going to do, here's how it's going to be done. She took my little wimpy idea and she made it into the collab that it is today. So I'm so excited to be in a collab with so many people that I love on this platform and that I respect and it's amazing. So here is what you're in for. So we are all doing a full face of Pat McGrath, loves and dislikes, but I know you guys always ask me to do looks with my Pat McGrath palettes because they are so expensive. You have seven looks today. So the first mothership palette, the Subliminal palette is going to be featured in Kelsey Brianna J's video. The second palette, the Sublime palette is going to be featured in Michelle Wong's video today. I am doing the number three subversive palette. Doing bronze seduction is going to be Chelsea from Glam Girl Chelsea. Midnight Sun is going to be covered from Alicia. She is kinky sweats here on YouTube. Mel is going to be doing a look with Divine Rose. And then we have Tara Lynn who is going to be doing a look featuring the Blitz Astral Cods. So make sure you definitely check out all of their videos. They are all super talented at makeup. They have such amazing channels. So if you aren't subscribed to them already, you guys need to go subscribe to them. Check out their videos. They create amazing content as well. And I think everybody here is just the perfect fit for this collab. I am so excited. I love all these people and I'm so excited to spread the Pat McGrath love with you guys. So if you want to see how I got this look, then just keep watching. Going to start off with the eyes. And generally speaking, as far as Pat McGrath eyeshadows go, you guys know where I stand. I think she makes state-of-the-art eyeshadow palettes. She has the most beautiful, unique Blitz Astral Glittery formula, which is on this eye right here. She has my favorite eyeshadow palettes ever in her line. My favorite of hers, of course, are the Mothership palettes, the big ones. I also like her little baby motherships, though those ones, I just don't love as much as the big ones. But she does have some not-so-good ones, which I'll talk about in a second. But first, we're going to get into the look. I'm going to show you how I did this eyeshadow look. I'm doing the Mothership 3 Subversive Palette. This palette really inspires me. I feel very creative with this palette. So I'm taking my red for 16 brush in this matte brown shade. And I just want to make sure I'm using a big fluffy blending brush so that nothing is too harsh for this first color. And I'm going to blend that all the way through my crease. You guys always ask me for Pat McGrath tutorials, so I'm so excited to get another one up with this palette. Because I don't think I've ever done a look on my channel with this palette. Maybe I have, I can't remember, but I'm happy to bring this palette out anyways. So as you can see, that blended out nice and seamless. And now we're going to just dip into the matte black because I want this to be a pretty smoky, dramatic look. And we're going to pop that here, and I'm going to grab something laying around. And we're going to work on blending black. I find this really helps to blend black so that it doesn't go out of hand. Or really low past your eyes to kind of droop your eyes down. You want to keep it at an upward angle, especially when you're blending black, because it can make you look sad. So many of my houses vacuuming right now. This is very inconvenient timing. You see how that color just like lifted my eye allowed me to kind of blend that black very freely. And I am going to make sure I have this quarter of my eyelid covered in black because I like the look of shadow layered on top of black. The main baby that we're working on is this shade right here. I of course had to do a purple look with this palette. I definitely on my Instagram and my YouTube, I've never done a purple look using this palette. So I really, really had to. This shade needs to be worked on with a finger. It's a little bit sheer, meaning that you can really see the glitter particles, but you have to build it up if you really want the color that you see in the pan. And then I want those glitters to run high. So make sure with your finger, you're tapping it up high over the crease because I want a glitter explosion on my eye. This is not her favorite formula of mine, but it's still as you can see is a gorgeous, gorgeous color. And then we're going to take one of my favorite shades in the palette. This is her Blitz Astral formula, which is the best. This is like a purple blue and I love the way this layers over the two shades that I have down. And I'm just going to pop that on the outer half of my eyelid.  It's really, really incredible. And then I'm going to blend these edges a little bit, kind of disperse that glitter. Love how this is turning out. And then I'm going to take a pencil brush and we're going to go into this shade right here, which is basically a sheer shade with a pink duochrome to it to finish off for now. These all complement each other very well. You clean up underneath because there is fallout with this shade. If you want to reduce fallout, definitely use a glitter glue with these shades. I think that original purple shade would definitely benefit from the use of a glitter glue, but it doesn't need one. Before we move on to the face though, I do want to talk about some eyeshadows that I don't like or that personally I feel aren't worth it. For the most part, her palettes in general are always a thumbs up for me. I haven't really come across a palette that I haven't liked from her. However, I have come across some that I don't think are worth it. So this guy, I don't even know what it's called. This is the cheapest packaging from Pat McGrath ever. Sometimes she'll randomly do these collections where the packaging is so cheap. This came in like a little set with a glitter and these are the colors. And the shadows are good. The quality on these are good. They blend good, but these are the most boring colors. It just wasn't worth the money. I feel like it was good if you want to try the Pat McGrath formula, but truly I feel like you aren't getting the Pat McGrath formula in here with this. You're just getting some nice shimmers and some nice matte. And while these shadows do correlate with her palettes, you're missing the main beauty of the glittery shades. So for me, this just wasn't worth it. It wasn't a true representation of the brand and the packaging was not good. Also, please, please, please don't pick up her individual shadows. These are the most expensive individual shadows with the least amount of product ever. The value on these are horrible. The value in her regular big pans are so much better.  You're getting like little to no product. And the majority of the shades can be found in her original palettes. And just the amount of money you're spending on these individuals, you might as well buy the product itself. She has a few shades which are original, so those I am happy to own. But value-wise, these were a rip-off and the packaging again is really, really cheap. She'll come out with some amazing, luxurious packaging and some items, which, yes, amazing, totally worth the price, totally worth the experience. And then she randomly comes out with these super cheap packaging things that just aren't good. So anyways, I mean, the quality of these, of course, are amazing, but please don't purchase the individuals because they are not worth it. We will come back to that palette, but we do need to work on her complexion products. She has a system which you're supposed to use and coordinate all of her products. For the most part, I really do enjoy her complexion products. So we're going to start off with the Skin Fetish Sublime Perfection Primer. This is another one of her weird items that have super cheap packaging. And personally, I am not wowed by this primer. It feels nice going onto my skin for sure, but that's about it. It does leave my skin with a smoother canvas, but personally, I don't find that this makes too big of a difference. I would much prefer to use my Smashbox Primerizer. I don't notice this to be especially blurring. In my personal opinion, this is not my favorite product from her, but I don't think it's bad. I like it enough, of course, to keep it in my collection and keep using it. It does have a pretty strong fragrance to it. So if you're not a fragrance fan, you might want to stay away from this. I have sensitive skin, so I probably should stay away from this. But that being said, my mom loves this primer. She's repurchased it. She's run through it. She swears this makes her makeup last longer and look better. I personally have not had that experience. So just know just because I don't like it, my mom likes it. Some people see the value in it. So I'm going to take a little bit of her concealer just to run on my blemishes really quick. This is her Skin Fetish Sublime Perfection Concealer. I wear the shade LM9, which is Light Medium. And you guys, this is one of my favorite concealers literally ever. I think it's one of the best. You get a lot of coverage with it. It doesn't really crease. It's just an amazing, flawless, full coverage, lightweight concealer. It is probably my favorite concealer of the moment. She hit it out of the park with this particular release. So I too highly recommend this concealer. This is one of her best complexion products that she's come out with. So I'm just starting off by using this to cover my blemishes. This isn't my skin color. So that's why I'm putting it underneath my foundation first just to work as extra coverage. Because we're going to move on to the foundation, which is the Skin Fetish Sublime Perfection Foundation. I also use Light Medium 9. And this is a controversial foundation because it's like $70. And a lot of people did not like this foundation and didn't think it was worth it. I've got to be honest. I really do enjoy this foundation. I think it's very lightweight. It's very, very natural on the skin. You'll see it's a very liquidy concealer. I just love it because it feels like there is nothing on my skin. I feel like I'm putting water on my skin. I think the reason why so many people don't like it is because you don't get much coverage with it. I would say this is a light to medium coverage. You can build it up to medium or you can get a really light everyday coverage with it. But I mean, I personally like it. I think it's a really great everyday foundation. I don't wear this when I want to have full coverage or like a full beat. I do like it for everyday. I just think it looks so natural on the skin. It wears really well on my skin. And I don't feel it on my skin, which I really like. But I think where a lot of people are coming from is they're like, this is a $70 foundation. And it just, you know, there's not much coverage to it. It doesn't look special from any other foundation. So I feel like you either love this foundation or you hate it. For me personally, I really like this foundation. I think it's really good. I think it's worth the money if you like light to medium coverage. If you don't, I mean $70 is a lot. If you don't like light coverage, but for everyday, this is an ideal foundation for me. Because I don't care for too much coverage. Normally if I'm not behind the camera, I don't need much coverage for my everyday kind of look. This isn't by any means my favorite foundation in my collection, but I am one of those people that really does enjoy the foundation and the finish. And it just makes my skin look nice and juicy and healthy. Moving back to the concealer for the under eyes. Oh, this magical concealer. I need to put this all over my face and see how it does because this concealer is that beautiful. I cannot shut up about this concealer literally just the best. Do you see how much coverage I got? I thought the contrast between the concealer and the foundation was interesting though, because this concealer is pretty dang full coverage. So I almost don't like wearing this concealer with the foundation. Now people kind of have opposite perspectives on this. If you wear a lighter coverage foundation, maybe use a heavier coverage concealer to kind of counteract that. For me, I just find it looks odd, especially as the day goes on and your makeup kind of wears away. I just think it looks better if you're going to go for a light coverage foundation. You might as well go for a light coverage concealer as well. So I don't necessarily enjoy pairing these two together because I do feel like I have to go over some parts of my skin with the concealer just to make everything look more consistent. For me, I would probably pair this foundation with the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Concealer. That one is much more lightweight on the skin. But dang, do you see how freaking amazing this concealer is? Now we're going to move on to a product that I might love even more and that is the blurring under eye powder. This is also fairly new just like the concealer. I have mine in the shade light y'all. This powder is my absolute favorite under eye powder ever. It is so blurring. It is so finely milled and it really just makes your under eyes look amazing. I've been pairing this with all of my concealers lately.  So I kind of use it to set my entire T zone because it's so perfecting and so blurring. Also, one thing that is not worth it from Pemograph at all is her brushes. I'm using my own personal brushes. I've never purchased her brushes but I've seen them. I felt them. They are not worth the money whatsoever. They're just synthetic makeup brushes that you can get from like Morphe or all of these other brands. So I don't like her brushes. I think they're one of those items that again are a complete ripoff. Next up, I have the Sublime Perfecting Setting Powder. I'm not really moved by this one either. I use it because I have it but I don't see myself repurchasing this. So this is another product that I wouldn't go as far to say as I don't like this from her line. It doesn't impress me. It's just a setting powder. I don't notice it to be particularly blurring or anything. It's a powder that's just kind of there. Just kind of sets your makeup, doesn't really add coverage. So for a lot of people, her base products are kind of hit or miss.  I don't think everything in her line is great but I do love her foundation, her concealer and her under eye setting powder. Everything else I can kind of do without as far as the base.  So we're going to pull this baby back out.  So run it along your lower lash line and mixing it with that brown is going to soften it. So I'm going to take this shade right here and we're going to apply that to the inner half of my lower lash line to kind of aid the fact that this really only works with a finger. I'm just going to wet my brush and we're going to pat that all along the inner part of the lower lash line like so on every little bit of that black to be covered by the shimmer shades. That's where Pat McGrath shines. I'm going to show it off. I'm just wiping that brush off and then I'm going into this shade right here and again pat pat pat right along the black.  I don't own a black eyeliner pencil from Pat McGrath though she does have one. I haven't tried it. I ordered one but it's on the way so we're just going to pop a random black eyeliner down here. And her mascara. This is the Fetish Eyes Mascara. This is another product where you either hate it or you love it. I'm one of those people that love this mascara. It is one of my absolute favorites. I love how the mascara builds on itself and how voluminous my lashes become. I love this mascara. I think it is awesome so I'm going to quickly put these on my lashes. So a major mistake just happened so I need to wait for this to dry.  And I do want to talk about her liquid liner really quick. This is the Permer Precision Liquid Eyeliner. And I do really like the formula of this. It's very black. It's matte. I really like this when it works. So the problem that I have with this did dried out really really quickly. I just have it here to show you guys. I just ordered a new one because I do really enjoy the formula. But if you don't have the money to be constantly spending on a liquid liner over and over repurchasing it, run far away from this because it's super annoying how quickly I find this dries out. But when it's new and pristine, it is an amazing formula. So I'm going to get this all put on some falsies and bronzer and blush because Pat McGrath doesn't have that. And I will be back. Welcome back to the face. I use my Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow for bronzer. And then my Kylie Cosmetics Blush in Kitten Baby, which is just a really soft color. So we're going to talk about highlight. I only have two kind of highlighters from Pat McGrath. She has like this cream stick. I first have never tried it, but I'm going to use the Sublime Skin Highlighter Highlighter Palette. And I think I'm going to upset a lot of people with what I'm about to say. I'm not crazy about this highlighter palette. So there's three colors in here and you have a pink base, a gold base, and this really bronzey gold base color. I feel like for Pat McGrath, she should have a larger highlighter collection right now. But this just isn't for me. I don't care too much for the colors. The formula is like a putty formula. By the way, I'm going to use this pinky base color. And this palette, like it works fine. The formula is really nice. I really like using this highlighter that's pink with a look like this. But I feel like she's missing a champagne color in this palette and these aren't really colors that, to be honest, I really like. I feel like it's not as reflective. It doesn't bring your cheekbone out. It just is kind of a splash of color on your cheek. But don't get me wrong, the formula, I don't know if you can see this lays really pretty on the skin. But it doesn't really do what a highlighter technically should do for me. I will admit though, I think this is just better catered towards medium skin tones. This gold is really nice. It's a unique gold that's going to look on everybody from pale to super deep. The formula is good. I just don't like the colors that she went with. But I do think if you have a deep skin tone, this is like stunning for you. So on my pale little face, I don't really care for it. Like right now I want to go in with something a little bit more blinding. For me this isn't worth it but I can definitely see why other people would like it. I just don't think it looks that good on me and it's not the kind of colors that I go for. I also have this Chromalux highlight cream. I got the light pinky one and she also has an icy blue one online. I have not used this since the day that I reviewed it. It's a fine formula but I am never ever ever going to use this. For me this was a huge waste of money.  And look it's really pretty like it's actually more gold than pink. I'm not really about to put that on my face. So it is gorgeous but what I would use this for more likely is my eyelid. But I've had this for months and I haven't bothered to do that. So for me this was a big old waste of money. I don't think the formula is bad by any means but again like what am I going to do with that? That's just I don't really like it. So I definitely feel like though Pat McGrath doing what she does and being who she is she should have more highlighters eye in her line by now. Let's move on to lips now. She has some of the best lip products in the industry. She also has some really bad products as well. So the first one that I want to talk about is her lip fetish lip balm. This is the biggest waste of money. So I got this one from her Star Wars collection. It's just a clear lip balm and these are so expensive. They're like 30 something dollars and it's just a generic lip balm formula that you can get from CBS. So basically if you're looking for a good actually moisturizing lip balm I would get it from Laneige or Tacha. Those two are the best. This is just you can buy this for three dollars. It's not exceptional. I mean it does moisturize the lips I guess but it's not worth it. I got it because it was in cute Star Wars packaging. So she came with a lot of lip balms in her Star Wars collection randomly. These are her astral lip balms.  So I have a gold one and a pink one and you can't... I don't know. Very very subtle glitter. I don't know why I bought these truly.  I spent like over a hundred dollars for the packaging solely and it's just don't waste your money. Lip liners. On the other hand she has some balm dot com lip liners. Some of the best in the business. My two favorites are done undone and contour. Done undone is my favorite everyday pinky nude lip liner. It's basically the color of my lips. And then contour is if I really want to either shape the lips or I'm going for a more brown based lip liner. These are awesome because they are really really creamy with application but then they set down and they last forever. They are expensive but truly they're one of the best lip liners on the market that I personally experience as far as wear time and ease of application. So highly recommend her lip liners. Like I said contour and done undone are my favorite. Kind of lip do I want to go for. So I think I want to go with like a pinky nude. That's a little too peach. For my lips I'm going to use done undone today because I want to go for a more pinky lip. As far as her lipsticks go are some formulas that I like better than others. The matte trance is okay. It's her matte formula and they're kind of that powder matte finish and I don't really find them to be anything exceptional because her lipsticks are very pricey and so I would go for her luxe trance formula which is a little bit more moisturizing, a little bit more shiny as you can just see from the bullet compared to the matte trance but just for the sake of color today I am going to go for soft core. She's just like this very simple powder pink lipstick but yeah I'm not a crazy fan of her matte trance formula. I'm taken by her packaging more than anything. You know her lipsticks are expensive so I would go for luxe trance not matte trance. She also has an interesting formula which are called blitz trance and these are really cool. They're such a unique, very pretty, glittery, metallic lipstick. I'm going to use nude romantique right on top just so you can kind of see. These are one of my favorite glitter lipstick formulas. I just think they do such a good job of not being metallic but not being gritty also because of the glitters. It's the perfect in between and they're still wearable so rose romantique is a really great everyday color if you want to try these blitz trance formulas out. So I do think her blitz trance are worth it and then I'm going to finish with a lip gloss and her lip glosses are one of my favorite formulas. I find that they really smooth out the lips. They really go over lines and they're super comfortable. They're not too sticky. They last a long time and they're super shiny so all of her lip glosses across the board I absolutely love.  I got this in a little set and it's just a really pretty glary pink. She has flat ones as well that aren't going to be glittery but this look is so glittery how could I not? So I'm going to put on some earrings and all that good stuff and I will be back for the outro. Alright and here's the look we created this really beautiful purple and blue smoky glittery eye. I am obsessed with it. I think it is stunning only Pat McGrath can do a look like this. I thought this video was really fun because you guys know Pat McGrath is my favorite brand and I'm really only positive about her brand. However, she can do things wrong so I do think it was fun to talk about the products that personally I don't think are worth it that I don't think are really worth the price tag. There are great things in her brand that are amongst my favorite out of my entire collection but there are some that I'm just like no. Not good, not worth it. So hopefully this video helped you out a lot and the best thing about this collab is that during this quarantine you guys have a lot of great content to watch so make sure you check out all of the videos to see a different look with different palettes. You get to see everybody's different makeup styles and their opinions of what is worth it and what is not from Pat McGrath. So I'm very excited to be a part of this collab. I think it was so fun and I'm so excited that we get to bring you guys so much Pat McGrath content today. I love talking Pat McGrath. So that is all I have for today's video. I hope you guys enjoyed it and I hope you found it helpful. If you aren't subscribed to my channel yet I hope you guys take the time to do so and I will see you guys in the next one. Bye guys, have a good one.


Hello and welcome to NewsClick and People Dispatch. On this occasion of May day, we are joined by K. Hemlata, the President of the Centre of Indian Trade Unions or C2 for short. We will be talking to her about the condition of workers in India during this COVID-19 lockdown and the crucial role being played by them. Thank you for joining us today. So can you first talk about healthcare workers who are rightly being called the frontline warriors during this battle? Can you tell us about, particularly about the role being played by care workers such as Asha workers, Anganwadi workers, nurses, midwives, etc. And sort of treatment they are getting both at the hands of the government and the people. Yeah, the Asha workers and the Anganwadi workers, they are also along with the doctors and nurses, they are also part of the frontline workers. And they are asked to go house to house and identify the people and provide them advice and other things. So along with the nurses, they are going to different houses, they are conducting a survey. And Asha workers, though the Anganwadi workers are actually not directly under the Ministry of Health, they are working under the Ministry of Women and Child Development. But because they have close contact with the people, they are also part of the team and they are also going house to house. And the main problem is that they are not provided with any protective equipment, either gloves or mask or anything. That is one area where they are exposed to risk. This is not part of their work, but they are doing this because they are closely related to the people, particularly in the villages. But they are not having any additional remuneration. As it is, the Ashas are not provided with any wages. They are only called social health activists and they are provided with some incentive, which is very low. And now they have additional work and they are not paid for that. That is one issue. Second, they don't have any protective gear. That is the second one. And third, in many places, they are being beaten up by the people. In some places, they think people think that they have come to conduct the CAA survey. And some places, they are because of this stigmatization and all these things, particularly in the minority areas. They don't want to give the information. They don't want people to go there. Though now under this scheme, the government has announced that Ashas also will be provided this 50 lakh insurance. Actually, it is when they die, their family will get. But even that is not there for the Anganwadi workers. So Anganwadi workers are also part of the team. They are also subject to all these difficulties. They also don't have any additional remuneration for this extra work. It is not part of their routine work. And they are also exposed to the risk and they are also not provided with any protective equipment, nor with this insurance. So these are the main issues that these health workers face to be. And if we talk about other sectors, there are also workers active in many other sectors who are not being talked about as much. So can you tell us more about them? They are also working despite all these concerns. They haven't stopped their work. They are the ones sustaining us right now. Can you tell us more about the crucial role being played by the working class during this lockdown? So in addition to the health workers, that is the nurses or the doctors or the Asha Anganwadi workers, there are various other workers who are also indirectly related, who are working in the particular circumstances like the transport workers, the goods transport workers, the loading and unloading workers and also the railway trackmen. Recently we came across a complaint where the railway ministry is trying to fast track. Generally what they do when the request of the tracks etc., the trackmen, they do that. They are done in between some time when the trains don't pass. But now because the trains are not running, they want to fast track that and they are not provided any means they are not even under the consideration. There is no scope of social distancing. All of them have to together work and they are not provided with any protective care. So these are and many places they are finding difficulty to even attend the work because they are villages. They come from nearby villages. In the villages they have fast resolutions and they are saying that you can't go to work. If you go work, now the government has issued guidelines that when a particular sector is working, then the employer has to provide accommodation to the workers, their food etc. But even the railways is not providing for their own trackmen. So there are many other sectors where workers are compelled to work, the municipal workers, the sanitation workers. So even the bank employees, the bank employees are also working, the banks are functioning. And because of the jandham accounts etc., there is a lot of crowd, particularly in the beginning of the month. But the bank employees are also not provided with any protective care or anything. So the various other sectors, the employees and the workers, they are also working. But the government is not at all taking care of them. In addition to the migrant workers, which has come out as a very big problem, the government guidelines which were issued immediately after the lockdown, they say that the employers should not retrain the workers including the contract workers and casual workers. Their wages should be paid and those who are in leave, they also should be treated. Those who have taken leave before and could not join because of the lockdown, they also should be considered as attending the work and they should be paid wages. But nowhere is this being implemented in very few places including the public sector undertakings. Like the border road organization, we have been receiving a lot of complaints that they are retrenching workers who have been working for decades and similarly in the private sector. Many workers, they are not being paid and not only the small and medium enterprises, even in the big IT sector, we have found that women, pregnant women, they are being retrenched. Many employees have been retrenched. We have been receiving complaints for a lot of companies based on, based in Pune, based in Calcutta, based in Chennai, Gurgaon, etc. IT companies including multinationals, they have retrenched their employees and they are also not paying wages. So this is organized, an organized public sector and we have been demanding. It is very difficult for the small and medium enterprises to pay wages because they are so small and they can't pay full wages. So we have been demanding that the government should help them. The small enterprises in many advanced countries also, the governments are paying the wages. So the government should at least pay the wages for the other workers in these enterprises. So in general, the package that the government has given, which is less than 1%, 0.8% and even out of that there are certain accounts like the Mandrega workers wages which have been already accounted for in the budget. So if we remove those things, it comes to hardly 84 or 94,000 crores. So this is very meagre. So we have been demanding that particularly the government has to take care of the migrant workers. They have to provide them the wages and in addition all the non-tax paying, non-income tax paying people in the country. There should be cash transfer across 7500. So that's one foot and the other expenditures they can meet. And once the COVID is over, you need the workforce, people who have to work. Unless the people are there to work, they are subject to starvation and malnutrition which is already very serious in our country, then how the economy will run? Yeah, and we also see that this far right Nayan Ramodi government in India is trying to take advantage of a working class which is vulnerable right now by attacking their rights such as the 8 hour work day. So can you tell us more about that? One, the government is reportedly contemplating to increase the working hours. Mayday particularly, we all know that it is remembered for the fight for 8 hours work. And that through lot of sacrifices the working class has achieved. But 134 years after that, today we find that governments are trying to increase the working. We are not talking about the employers illegally making the workers work 12 days. It is the government which is trying to legalize the illegal 12 hours work day. And in states like Gujarat, BJP, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, they have already issued notifications that 12 hours work will be workers have to work for 12 hours without any overtime payment. That is one aspect. And the second is the codification. Even before that the government has been trying to codify the labor laws. Already the board on wages bill has been passed. Now there are three core spending bills. One is industrial relations, second on social security and third on occupational health safety and working conditions. So even there also the government was trying to increase the working hours. And the industrial relations quote, if that is passed, it will be almost impossible for the workers to organize into trade unions. It will be almost impossible to go on a legal strike. The right to organize, the right to go on strike of the workers will be totally removed. And the government wants to get them through either an ordinance or through executive order. Now because they are pending with the parliamentary standing committee, the industrial relations, the parliamentary standing committee's observation on the industrial relations quote has been submitted. But the others are pending. Before that we receive reports that they are trying to push them through executive orders or ordinances. That means that taking advantage of this condition where the entire country is under lockdown, where workers cannot mobilize, they cannot protest etc. And that condition is taken advantage by the government to satisfy the demands of the employers. The employers have demanded the Gujarat Chamber of Commerce. They have demanded that the union should be banned. Formation of union should be banned for one year. They should be prohibited. Union should be prohibited for one year. And similarly the hire and fire. That was the demand of the employer. So all these things the government want to do under this situation where the people are suffering, people are losing jobs, people have no income. Instead of addressing the genuine situation of the people, their demands, the government wants to satisfy the employers and attack the rights of the workers. And of course the unemployment is rapidly increasing and the economy is facing a deep crisis. And the Modi government, when many other governments across the world, the response to this situation is that they are planning on opening up certain sectors and easing lockdown restrictions. So what is C2's response to this move? See, lockdown, whether a country-wide lockdown is necessary or not, that also means an issue. Which is very slow, unanimity. Lockdown, if it is where the hotspots or where to contain the hotspots, this lockdown is not a cure. It is only trying to limit the spread of the disease. Main thing is you have to test. The testing, though it has been increased, even today the testing is less. It is very low in our country.  So that has to be the procedure. But that is not being followed. So even if certain sectors are opened up, then the workers will have at least some jobs, some income. So that will even start the economy again. So that has to be considered properly. Lockdown, maybe it cannot be lifted entirely throughout the country. But where the cases are very low, where it is already contained, that way in a phased manner it can be removed. Gradually it can be, lockdown can be eased. So that is, we agree for that. But at the same time, the people's health cannot be sacrificed. And now what we say, you were talking about the liberalization. Today, who are the people actually fighting the coronavirus? It is the public sector, hospitals. Today also there was a report in the media and the newspapers that today our two thirds of beds are with the private sector in our country. Because under neoliberal globalization, the public spending, the government spending on health has come down drastically. And 80% of the ventilators are with the private sector, private hospitals. 80% ventilators, two thirds of beds are with the private sector. And they are providing only 10% of, addressing the 10% of COVID patients. And not only the COVID patients, even for the non-COVID care also they are not providing because they are safely locking themselves up. Because they don't want to take the risk. So that is the time. What we need today is that the government has to spend more on public health. The government has to, in some countries like Spain, they have taken over the private hospitals also in this situation. And what we see today in the USA, which is the most powerful country in the world, there almost one third of the cases are in the USA. Of the total global cases, one third are in the USA. And one fourth, deaths are in the USA. A country which is having so many missiles, submarines and spending so much on military. Why can't it spend on its own, the health of its own people? So it is the policy. So the system, the policies are totally exposed. So in this system under neoliberalization, people's health is not first, profits are first. So in the coming days, what we feel is that the government needs to spend more on public health. Health should not be a privilege. It should be treated as a right of the people, as a responsibility of the government. And I think from what we can all estimate, from what it seems that the condition is not going to get better anytime soon. And it is the working class, which is going to keep suffering the most. So in this situation, what protest actions have been organized by C2? What are they planning to do in the future? And what are the demands that are being put forward? Actually, we have already started. On 21st April, we had an all India protest team. The demand is one, at that time this demand has come up. The government is thinking of increasing the working hours. So that was one of the major demands. But in addition to that, this cash transfer of 7,500, no retrenchment, payment of wages, and then protective equipment, gloves, masks, etc., to the frontline health workers and all the needy, taking care of the migrant workers, providing them shelter, providing them food, etc. All these were the major demands. The slogan was, Bhashan nahi reishan sayi. Bhashan nahi vetan sayi, Bhashan nahi arthik sahaita sayi. For the peasants, it is time for the harvest. They don't have money for the harvesting. They don't have money for transfer of their products to the cities, transport, etc. So with these demands, we organized a protest demonstration all over the country, like maintaining physical distance and maintaining all the guidelines under lockdown. People stand with the placards showing these demands and the flags in their hands. And at 10.30 in their own houses, along with their family members, or wherever possible, the union offices or the SEITU offices like that, they'll ask them to stand and raise their voice. Because till now they have been hearing a lot of Bhashan, a lot of advices, they have practiced that. Now it is time that their voices need to be heard. And for 10 minutes they have given slogan. And the response was beyond our expectation. In all the 22 states in the country, except of course where we have our present CITU, in Trikura the government did not allow the threatened of vindictive actions, etc. But everywhere, including Jammu and Kashmir, to all the states, around 55,000 centers this was held and in more than 400 districts, out of the 718 districts in the country, this program was held in 408 districts in the country, more than 55,000 places and approximately 5 lakh people have participated. This was means beyond totally our expectation, within a short notice. Through social media, through telephone, they have communicated and they have responded. And again on media, we said that with this, no wage cuts, no retrenchment, no 12-hour works, tax the rich, tax the super rich and save the poor. Today the super rich, even the wealth tax was removed in 2016-17 Union budget by the BJP government. So even if you restore the wealth tax, if you tax the 953 people who are billionaires, whose minimum wealth is more than 5000 crores, even you tax these people, the government can definitely allot around 10% of the GDP for the meeting this situation. It is not impossible. Instead of doing that, the government is cutting on the DA of the central government employees, they are withholding the dearness allowance increase, the dearness allowance up to 2021-July. They are asking the government employees to pay, including the retirees, pensioners also. So the government is pushing the entire burden on the common people, not the super rich and the IRS officers who have suggested that they should tax the rich, the super rich and action has been taken against them, three of their senior leaders of the IRS association, they have been charged, treated including their general secretary. So this is the attitude of the government. So on May Day also we have decided with these slogans we will similarly organize in a wider scale and in the coming days also we have to think about, we can't go on keeping silent when the government goes on attacking the workers and their rights. So despite the lockdown, we have evolved measures and how to express our people's anxieties and voice their demands and in the coming days definitely we have to unite. In the 21st program we have appealed to the Kisan Sabha, to the Agricultural Workers Union women and so many other sections, students, youth, etc. and everybody responded. So this time also the call has been given along with the other trade unions, not only CITU, AITUC, INTUC, HMS and the other trade unions also have joined together in giving this call of protest on May Day. Their own flags, they will carry their own flags and these demands, common demands and in their offices and houses maintaining the physical distancing, not the social distancing. We want social unity and not the social distancing. So maintaining physical distancing, unitedly voicing our demands, we have decided to raise our protest. Thank you for joining us today and that's all the time we have. Keep watching NewsClick and People's Social.


What's up everybody once again, it's Brandman Sean and this video is brought to you by brandmannetwork.com because I signed myself. Now it's music Monday so I'm talking about something music related and I got to cover this topic right here. Managers. There's a few things that you need to know about managers. One, we're going to talk about managers are not your investors. Two, we're going to talk about what makes a great manager. Three, we're going to talk about some things that are in the contract that you should keep in mind artists especially. And four, we're going to talk about a few people that are good prototypes for who might be a good manager. Some people you should look at to consider to be your manager because there aren't too many managers that are already established as managers. If they're in a period without work then they probably aren't looking for a brand brand new artist but that's a whole other point. So one, let's go ahead and hop into it. Managers are not investors. Why am I saying this? So many artists are expecting managers to put up money. They're expecting managers to pay for stuff. They're also expecting managers to tell you what time to wake up, go get you some money and bring the money back to you in this opportunity and do all these things but you have to realize they're the fine line. Not just because your manager just might not have the money to give but you have to think about this. I did an interview with an artist by the name of Lejit figured it out and when I was interviewing Lejit he actually talked about a situation when his record label was trying to manage him. And you have to think about the fact that record labels are essentially a bank. That's the money, that's funding but then he already had a manager, there's a conflict of interest between your manager and being also the owner of the record label. There's a conflict of interest because their best interest is the record label. As a manager your best interest is supposed to be the actual artist. So if a manager is funding you heavily, it's one thing to say, you know what man I'm a spot this show I believe in a vision or we need some studio time I'll spot a little bit here and there. That's just really some homey homey help stuff but it's not an obligation that they have at all because once they are funding you and once they are investing in you truly right now their obligation is not going to be to you as an artist. Ideally that would be nice but still they have money wrapped up into you. So that means their obligation just intuitively right as just as a human is probably going to be trying to get their money back. So that's a completely different relationship. Do not have those expectations of your manager because your manager is supposed to be completely aligned with you meaning when you get money they get money. When you get money they get money that's why they have that 10 to 20% because that is the only way they will be getting paid primarily if you get what I mean. Now of course here's some other things to consider what makes a good manager period. And let's just call this number two of four. So first and foremost one of the things a manager needs to be is organized. Why is that so important? Because it sounds simple but if you aren't organized when you're dealing with an artist right? Artists are not going to be organized by nature for the most part right? So much of it is the freedom and the lack of boundaries whatever but so you have to be able to organize the artist schedule just to be able to combat that but then also there's so many different categories you're pulling from. You're dealing with the booking agents right? You're dealing with maybe setting up studio time. You're possibly setting up other collaborations with artists for them.  You're dealing with so many random things that if you aren't able to figure out how to organize those to make sure they get executed because you're also helping plan the album rollout and all these things that come with it then there's going to be something that falls by the wayside and that's why one of the key things to successful artists is literally their team. It's not talent. Come on. There's so many talent artists that even have money right? They have the funding but the ball gets dropped. Even with these artists that we know that are huge and loved already and they might have a project that just doesn't hit because the team dropped the ball on that particular project but then they pick it back up with something else. So keep that in mind. Your manager has to be organized. I'm spending time on that because you have to make sure if you can tell you got a manager and like they're dropping a ball and they can't remember stuff and they're missing meetings and all that stuff that's probably not going to be a good manager for you. Another thing is they have to be great with relationships because for the most part a lot of artists are going to spend time with a lot of artists right? Or they're going to spend time in that studio. Some of these artists don't even want to deal with any of this industry stuff at all and as a manager they have to be the people who move and shake the people who stay out late or get out early and deal with these business circles and build these relationships because so much of this stuff is again not money but connections as well. They're going to be able to help you, be able to spend less money if you can build these relationships. It's a key, key part to being a manager. If you can't build relationships, maintain relationships and make sure you understand how to utilize these relationships then you're not going to be a good manager. So if you could tell that the person that you're looking at to be your manager doesn't have that then you want to keep that in mind as well because hey just to give a little insight on what being a manager is like for a lot of people a lot of times they're being this barrier for the artist because artists sometimes y'all got some BS going on y'all y'all are messing the situation up and a manager has to either say hey yo you know what I mean I'm sorry they have to either put their name on the line and say you know I'm gonna fix it or sometimes they might even say you know you know they're artists just be real they might the artist you know they don't understand and they're in their films but I got you I'm gonna make sure we handle this situation or they might even sometimes tell the artist that this is what they're gonna get and they'll negotiate something that is actually reasonable versus what the artist might think they deserve at that time. There's a lot of little things that go on in that middleman situation just for the manager to juggle these personalities you have to be good at juggling these personalities and you have to have the type of personality that really can be clutch you know I mean if you don't know sports and you don't know clutch you know you have to be good under pressure because there is so much pressure dealing with these personalities and still trying to achieve something at the end of the day last but not least a manager should be great at research because that's the way you find people that's the way you find relationships that's how you get to the right information whether that's knowing how to google online and find stuff and that's a real thing because a lot of people they know how to use google but they don't understand how to use google for research and they know how to consume information but they don't know how to actually sift through and find good information versus this is just the information that google is popping up on the first page right there's a difference between that a great manager will know how to do that whether it's online or speaking with people and now let's get into some contract things that you should understand as an artist because these are some basic standard things that you'll see in manager contracts and a lot of times they start off manager friendly on purpose but you can negotiate these things if you see fit you just have to understand what you're looking at all right so the first thing to understand when it comes to the contract is there's a commission you have to understand what that commission is going to be again that's that five ten fifteen twenty percent twenty five thirty percent that they will take from all the money that comes in whatever that number is you have to agree upon that figure that part out but that number it makes sense i know some people are like why are you taking a percentage of my money well they only get paid when you get paid and you need somebody who gets aligned artists who don't understand why they're paying for people they don't understand business right you have to think about the fact or if you actually look at the numbers the amount of money that a lot of these companies make right i'm talking about apple amazon any company versus the amount of money they take home then you would clearly understand where the money is going right it's not just artists a lot of times they say oh you're making this much which are only bringing home this much it's not necessarily because you're getting scammed or you're you're using money on something bad a lot of it is just an actual part of business so sometimes i wish people would take that negative stigma off of it because people have to get fed people have to get paid they have families and not only are you paying for families you're paying for maybe the building that you're in or the studio that you're using or or the trucks that are that are moving the freight all these things they cost money so the basic business you will be paying people if you think everybody's going to be doing everything for you for free or for the low then you're wrong so that's commission the second thing is the term of the agreement their short term management contracts and then there's long-term management contracts and then i know a lot of people at some points are moving on an agreement that doesn't have any particular time frame is more like yo i'm your manager we don't even talk about when i'm going to be your manager until we're just that's it i'm the manager it's kind of maybe assumed to be limitless or just not have been thought through in that way especially when you're starting out because one everybody's is trying to get on which is understandable but a term of agreement is something that i suggest doing i mean it's a part of a standard contract you should keep that in mind because hey one manager might be saying i'm going to blow you up and get you signed and i don't want to deal with you after this another manager might be saying we're on a three-year agreement because that's just our standard contract and that's what we do because they're in that position of leverage it depends on that situation but understand that's a valuable part of the contract and then there's another duration that's separate from the duration of the actual management agreement right because a manager cannot be your manager anymore but still be making money from you oftentimes this is in situations when a manager gets you signed to a label and you're still with that label there's artists even legendary artists i can't think of the names right now but they've been with the same label for like 30 years where that same manager theoretically is still getting that commission from that same artist even if they haven't been their manager in 20 years unless there was some kind of renegotiation of course right that kind of thing might have been in place i'm kind of buy out who knows renegotiation are always possible but the duration of agreement or a duration of commission right is one thing to keep in mind as well because it's hard to think about this stuff up front but when you start moving and this you know dream and this hobby starts to become a career then all of a sudden everything that you've done starts to make a lot more sense and seem to be a lot more impactful that's why artists really start to get salty it's not even i feel like sometimes other people doing them wrong sometimes you so much just want to get on you're ignoring things that are simple and plain right in front of you and maybe you are i don't know maybe you don't even believe that you're going to get on so when you actually get on and you have to deal with those repercussions of how you chose to get on is different right um and you feel salty feel a little remorse so that's another thing and last but not least that we're going to cover when it comes to management contracts there's so much more to it but who collects the money understand a lot of managers don't even want to touch the money for one you know it's they're already dealing with so much and there's so many things that come with money in itself right when we talk about accounting right and all of the things that go with accounting to make sure that y'all are filing properly or just to even have to make sure that you're checking from this situation where you're supposed to receive money or making sure that you're paying out the money that you were supposed to be paying out to whoever you owe it to there's so many additional things and so much of it is really tedious right it's tedious but it has to be done is real work and your manager likes to focus a lot of times on bringing in new business not literally managing the money that's already come in so a lot of people end up getting business managers but that's another cut and another thing to pay or accounting however you want to say it so those are some things to consider though when it comes to your contract because you got to figure out who the money's gonna go to if your artist like I want the money to come to me I don't know how that works out I don't necessarily know that type of agreement that that there is but I'm sure it's out there there's a little bit of everything out there so moving on to the fourth thing we already covered the fact that your manager is not an investor number two what makes a good manager number three some strong things to consider when it comes to your contract just some standards some basic stuff and number four some of the people to look out for that could potentially be good managers and a little bit why so let's go ahead and get in number four people who are in PR right if people are out doing music PR they work for an agency or they're interning up under somebody whatever that is people who have some of that experience could be good for managers one to be in those type of jobs you got to have some organizational skills to at least do it well and also they're already in the business and seeing some side of business and they understand a lot of that image and marketing type perspective how a lot of that works with the media so somebody already having some of that perspective it works it doesn't mean everybody who's in PR doing PR is going to be your manager or a great manager but it is a good prototype to look for because also those type of people are in a position where they have to build relationships and once again what's key to being a manager relationships relationships relationships another good position to look out for is anybody who's in promotions if they're a promoter like clubs like Scooter Braun Scooter Braun was a club promoter at at opera right like anybody who's doing that is probably good at once again marketing they probably have to deal with a lot of people because that's a part of promotions you're managing the both sides you're getting the artist you're building the image but you're also dealing with the business on the back end and they're in these positions that force them to know some stuff right and then in the same vein you're looking at people who might throw shows might have their own show they might have their own festival or something like that these people are starting to get a gist of what these sides of the business look like so yes when we talk about a manager there's a lot of entrepreneurial aspect to it and you could just find somebody who's an entrepreneur and doing that well so they know how to figure it out that's a good thing but if you want to talk about people who already might have a nice leg up and they're already in and within music then those are a few good positions to look for now of course there's so many other positions to check out for and anybody again in those positions doesn't mean that they're going to be good at being a manager but you do want to find somebody who's already out in the business getting some sort of experience hopefully because they'll already have some assets to bring to the table probably that they aren't activating and using for themselves in that way because they're just doing their job at that point also a lot of videographers and photographers kind of end up having a lot of those connections and getting to see certain things as well something to consider but that's it for now in this particular video this is Music Monday so we're talking music stuff and this video is brought to you by
