Second week

One more week at work and I am still alive and happy with what I am doing.

I still worked on "Guitar Hero: On Tour" on Nintendo DS. I succeeded to get some reporters to publish an article on the product. However, I had a hard time linked to bad planning. I was supposed to send the video games to the reporters so they can try it. I should have received those games at the end of the week. On Thursday, I learnt that I will receive them on the 10th of July. Then you have to find a way to deal with it without loosing the article. It is not easy at all. I really had a hard time with my direct supervisor telling me how efficient we have to be.

In my mind, that job is very wavy. What I mean is that, during one hour you will have 5 journalists that sound very interested in what you are selling them. Then during the next hour, you can not get nobody to answer you on the phone. You can frustrated pretty easily, believe me. So, you called 15 of htem during the day, but when you have to do the feedback for the director, you can see that none of them really said "yes"...That job is a war, you need a strategy, strenght and to have good weapons.

Nevertheless, I have a very good news: The Guitar Hero Star Power Tour 2008 (GHSPT).The new game of Activision (video game company): "Guitar Hero: Aerosmith" is available since yesterday in every shop. THe GHSPT is a stand that will take place in the biggest Rock festivals in France. I will be working on some of them. The first is Solidays, the biggest music festival in France. I do not change my job : press relation. I think it can a great experience.

I will write the next article the 7th of July because the festival is the 4th, 5th and 6th.
