I'm saying that I think this is very innovative. You only get one chance to be first.
RB should receive good word of mouth and buzz from this event (and so should the purchaser of the ad space), but I wouldn't expect anyone else to get that same kind of buzz for being second in line... or third, or 103rd. Its like being the second person to walk on the moon (who was that guy? Everyone knows Neil Armstrong's famous words, but what about the other guy... "uhhh, yeah, what Neil said..." If only he'd gotten out of the lunar pod first!). Now, if this advertising approah were attempted for something like the Super Bowl, then that's another story... -Josh On 2/2/06, T.Whid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree with Michael, I don't see the logic in Josh's statement. > > I agree that there aren't that many vlogs or podcasts that could garner the > amount of money we're seeing in the RB action ($15k right now, reserve not > met).
