Just the way its sounds! Fantasy Broker's job is to make sure the client gets whatever they want at the time. It's kind of like making every dream come true for them.
A clerk wants to be a stand-up comedian for one night. A Businessman wants to drive a freight train across a western State. A psychiatrist wants 20 dates on 20 weekends with 20 girls from 20 different countries. How do they do it? They see a fantasy broker whose business is making dreams come true. Originally pioneered in Chicago by an advertising executive, fantasy firms in several cities in America now do a booming business, charging from $150 to thousands to turn dreams in reality. So a fantasy broker will make dreams come true, whatever is in his hand of course. He/she will be like a genie but with logic and on practical side.
Whatever the client asks for - a day performing live with a circus, a sky-diving adventure in the Himalayas, a jail visit with Paris Hilton - Fantasy Broker will make it happen for his client. Now of course don't get any wrong ideas, the job of a Fantasy Broker could be as small and as simple as making arrangements for two in a famous restaurant at the busy hour, or arrange the picnic for the family on a rainy day. Well there are people who would not want to make any effort for such personal and small events in their life, they would rather pay for it and get it done. Or they are simply too busy to do it on their own but still want to that to happened. That's where the requirement of Fantasy Broker's comes. Those simple events might earn those couples of hundred dollars while a more elaborate fantasy can cost clients thousands. It all depends on how many hours it takes to arrange the details, plus the cost of insurance (on riskier fantasies), flights, food, celebrity, appointments, or whatever is involved.
It's helpful to have some law background or know someone with law, so you know if a person's request is legal or not.
Fantasy Fulfillment Institute in Washington, D.C., did $2500 worth of business as a result of an ad that read: You can do anything you want... drive a formula race car, ride a camel down Pennsylvania Avenue at 3 P.M., live in a ghost town, float down the Potomac on a magnificent barge with one hundred slaves, or kiss a buffalo.
So what do you need for this job? More and more connections and resources since you will need to make all sorts of arrangements quickly and knowing someone in the field (whatever the fields happens to be - airlines, performers, sports) makes that much easier. It's also helpful to have some law background, so you know if a person's request is legal or not.
This is what we say living your dream as a reality and if reality comes with money , then the taste of that reality is sweetest :)Great job ..
ReplyDeleteOh I would love that job, helping people to make their dreams come true, sounds like the job that would give the greatest job satisfaction. Maybe there is an opportunity to set up a business like that in Ireland :)
