Monday Morning Memo

Merry Christmas!

As predicted, the special event scheduled for January 7-9, 2014,
How to Write Direct Response Ads, is completely sold out.
But I have the power to give away 5 scholarships.

We want the world to know
about Quixote’s Windmill Prize 

Here’s how it’s going to work:

1. Post a YouTube video that promotes the $10,000 Quixote’s Windmill
    Prize. Do your best to convince people to enter.
2. Email Daniel@WizardAcademy.org the URL of your promotional video.
3. Drive as many “thumbs up” votes to your video as you can prior to   
    noon on December 16, 2013.
4. You are free to use every possible means to drive “thumbs up” votes
    to your promotional video. 
5. Each of the top 5 vote winners will receive a scholarship to the
    January 7-9 class, How to Write Direct Response Ads.

 
Is that cool, or what!

All the rooms in Engelbrecht House are already full,
so if you’re one of the five winners, you’ll need to rent a hotel room.

If you’re already registered for the Direct Response class
AND win a scholarship, you can give it to a friend
OR you can use the credit toward another class
for which you are not yet registered.

Random Quote:

“

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.”

“But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.”

“This was the Captain Samuel Vimes ‘Boots’ theory of socio-economic unfairness.
