Next Internet Reality TV Show Launched

As a big fan of The Secret Classroom and the Next Internet Millionaire I was thrilled to see that Thor, who came third in the show, has launched his own concept – Jeremy Schoemaker’s “Dr Shoemoney” blog reports…..

“Thor Schrock, successful business owner from Lincoln Nebraska – took part in The Next Internet Millionaire challenge and placed 3rd. When the show ended even though Thor did not win he was the top Affiliate from the show.

Since the show aired Thor has expressed his disappointment in the fact the show never really had much educational value to the viewers and also that the whole plan business plan was to sell the DVD set after the series was over. There is no plan for a second season of the next internet millionaire. I also have to say I was a bit upset by the fact I could not interview anyone from the show until there main sponsor got involved and told me they would get me whoever I needed to help the show get more exposure.

So after the Next Internet Millionaire was over I met with Thor a lot about about making another show. Its no secret I have always wanted to do a web style apprentice where people actually made money on the internet in a competition. Ideally one that would show true affiliate challenges every show would be decided by their results and not by one persons opinion. But like many other things I have just never had the time to put into it.

So Thor has been at it…. Like a mad dog. He has the city on his side…. local companies… video crew hotel sponsorship even the local airport is on board. He is currently talking to various Affiliate companies also who want to be involved but he is having a bit of trouble getting some to commit. Also not many Affiliate companies are willing to actually have their offers used. Just a lack of confidence that there offers are the best I guess =P

So how will it work……….”

The official site for the challenge is here – see how he’s got folks auditioning by video, there’s a blog, a forum, and all sorts.  Viral and internet marketing at it’s finest.  http://www.topaffiliatechallenge.com/

Business Success: The Men From The Boys

I’m really enjoying The Secret Millionaire DVD box set from Joel Comm, which was one of my Christmas presents.  (I’m using this couple of weeks after my op to catch up on all my watching / reading). 

First up I really enjoyed the ever brilliant Armand Morin on “Branding” today and then, on a whim, dived into Brad Fallon’s section (Stompernet) which I have also thoroughly enjoyed – and not just because he’s dead cute (love that jeans and shirt combo).  

This pic simply does not do him justice – lots of money and shorter hair, plus a more casual lifestyle suits Brad obviously.   New pic on Google Images, please, Brad! 

He has a confident, dead pan, calm, down to earth delivery style which I really like.  His voice and accent does not hurt your head, if you know what I mean?

Near the end – I mean literally right at the end of Brad’s slot – is a brilliant moment when he talks about the difference between those entrepreneurs who seem to effortlessly succeed and those who, while no less clever, dedicated, passionate, committed, just never seem to be able to make any money.  He was wondering why that was…..

I actually got goosepimples at that point as I could just feel a profound moment coming up….and I wasn’t disappointed.
