Amusing if it wasn’t sad

So basically this guy has become what he describes as a huge success in the video business by inventing a franchise for people who want to work at home with “no experience necessary

Anybody want to get into medical billing or stuffing envelopes? If so I have a great opportunity waiting for you.

Hey Nick and All,

My next book is going to be called “How to make $1,000,000 through friends”. I hope you’ll all buy a copy. Chapter 13, the last one, is going be most interesting. It will be about how I got every single user on a forum website for video and film production to buy my book and thereby making me a million…

– my idea was good at conception.

You got to acknowledge that it is great way of getting middle class people recently out of work with a hobby in making videos to part with $60,000+. Nothing wrong in that – just not quite morally the right thing to do if you know the person will never make money on the venture. It is also correct that it doesn’t substitute real education, but it will work for weddings, christenings, birthday parties and funeral videos – so good luck to them.

Until recently I was a member of a Business Network group and I locked out a visitor who wanted to promote something along the lines of “Filming your home content for insurance claims”. The person in question had been on a two day course + purchased the package to film private home owners content. You have to hand it to them, it is faster to do a pan with a video camera than an individual still of each item…
So why did I not let these guys in to present at my network? Because I was afraid that their, somewhat very poor, Youtube videos would be mistaken for belonging to my company – as we all know, it is hard for the client to see the difference between two products when the other guy is offering a complete service for $60….

My 2 cents 🙂

All the Best

Funny thing, I was thumbing through some old copies of videomaker magazine (2004) and came across similar ads, probably the same company. I had a good chuckle at the stack of VHS decks and clunky old computer editing system and I too was curious at their mention of “territories”. Perhaps if I sign up they give me some far off line line Greenland or Lesotho!
