At Promptin', we live by the slogan, "Promptin' Ain't Easy. Use a professional."
Our diverse group of ops have all had extensive theater and studio backgrounds before coming aboard the good ship Promptin'. They are then trained in a veritable teleprompting dojo on the banks of the mighty Hudson by the Grand Poobahs of prompting. These mythical men and women have had over 30 years of combined industry experience and are said to scroll so smoothly that competitors feel the need to knock off their unique approaches.
Promptin' ops are so pro-level, that many of them forget they have first names... They respond simply to shouts of "Prompter!"
If you've hired another Prompter company (Especially a cheap promptin' knock off) in recent past, you can fill 3 spaces on the "nope, never again" bingo card with these:
- 1. The weirdo prompter guy with the ironic mustache and the schtick. Loves chatting up the client/talent. Shows off way too much chest hair for the modern age. Bonus if he shows up with a laptop made before Apple was a company. Double bonus if it's from an era before apples were a fruit!
- 2. The overly confident "podcasting" lady who shows up in the teenie weenie beanie. Says she started her company from the ground up when her parents bankrolled the whole thing. Has a vanity license plate that is prompter related and yet will do whatever entertainment job pays her at that moment. Her website looks like ours, feeeeeels like ours, she even spent gads of money to look like us, she's obsessed with being us! (😬) ...but... she can never be us.
- 3. The operator who is convinced he or she is friends with the talent. Talks about NFTs, crypto, politics. (All the no nos). Takes candid pictures and video on site. Shares them on insta and TikTok for followers.
