Read This If You Hate Paying Full Price
It has come to my attention that as a communication medium, blogging sometimes sucks rocks. Among its downfalls are the comment debacle, the fact that I can only realistically write in bite sized chunks, and the constant emails I get from people who haven’t read about something because their feed reader is full.
I’m not talking about those today, though, so ignore everything you just read. Today, I’m talking about blogging sucking for a whole different reason.
When I came out with SEO School and it got a review on Copyblogger, the number one search term that people used to find this blog was “SEO School Discount Code”. A whole bunch of people who don’t know me or love me or sympathize with me when I get a black eye were finding the good deals. While this is probably legal in most of the states in the union, I think it sucks. You guys are the ones giving me the love every day, so you guys are the ones who should get the good stuff.
Secondly, blogging lends itself to rants and passing thoughts and snippets. Little mini-lessons and such. Which is cool, but most of you don’t really need snippets. When I asked for feedback on the How To Work From Home When You Have No Fucking Talent course (which I’m still seeking, by the way) one of the big complaints y’all had was that few of the products out there are complete. It’s great that this book teaches you to use AdSense and this blog teaches you 10 Hacks For Some Shit Or Other, but you want TRAINING.
Feedback is indicating you want to know how to get out of this massive mess in which you find yourself and make some fucking money already.
Therefore, if training is what you want, training is what you’ll get. We’re hard at work at IttyBiz HQ finding the awesomest stuff for you guys. If we’re not finding it, we’re making it ourselves. We’re doing free courses like the How To Make $12,246 in a Day Stuff and paid stuff like SEO School. But we don’t want to hand it around like a tray of stale cake.
[Drumroll please...]
So we’re making a list. It’s the “Let me know when there’s free stuff” list and the “I want in before all the other losers” list and the “I’m too cool to pay retail” list.
Or don’t. Pay full price and let all your competitors kick your ass. Doesn’t matter to me.
