Adam Sandler spends a fraction of that when he produces a movie. To produce Blended, Here Comes the Boom and Grown Ups he spent $40 million, $42 million and $80 million respectfully.
The problem is the more money you spend in production the more money the film must gross. If you gross $300 million but spent $350 million you failed.
Low budgets lead to high profits. Sandler might have only grossed $123 million on Blended but $83 million was profit. That's a 207.5% ROI. Compare that to The Lone Ranger which grossed $260 million after spending $300 million for a 30% loss!
Now apply this strategy to your business. Do you need all the special effects that come with a $300 million budget to be successful or do you let your work and reputation speak for itself?
The Adam Sandler Strategy will lead to more profits and free up resources for your next project.
