Underpricing Your Products WILL Put You Out of Business
Wednesday, December 27th, 2006
I was catching up on some comments at some of my other sites. And someone questioned the fact that I occasionally say that my colleagues should charge more for their products.
It is one thing when someone just point blank asks you why you do something.
It’s another when they accuse you of having some other motive, when all of your other actions online CLEARLY state something different.
With all the free stuff I give away, and resources I point to, and blog posts that I could turn into ebooks and charge for instead, do I REALLY seem like the kind of person who just says things so I can make sixteen more bucks this month.

I quotessss:
Advertising offline is getting harder with time-shifted television and declining viewership, and online advertising is getting more complex with paid-search prices rising and banner click-thru’s dropping. Given the low variable cost of viral, it’s natural that advertisers would want to experiment with it. “I want a piece of Web 2.0,†they say.
Advertisers beware. Getting people to promote your product by forwarding a viral video is not as easy as it appears
You want to peruse this before you think about pulling forward on that viral video marketing plan.
Web Video Traffic | What About the TiVo Effect? Part Two
Tuesday, December 5th, 2006
The question from the last segment I posed:
But first, we’ve got to talk about how, in light of this shift, if we’re going to create ads or traffic drawing content in video format, aren’t we wasting money if people just skip commercials anyway?
My answer was Not Necessarily. And I mean it two ways. We aren’t necessarily wasting money, and people aren’t necessarily skipping commercials. Let me give you an example – here’s the story I promised.
