Don't Hate Me Because I Tell The Truth!!

HA HA, because I am about to tell you something a lot of affiliates will probably hate me for, but I am all about 
the truth, giving you knowledge and saving you money when I can.

Many might remember I said it floors me that so many people are putting out information products that are so easy to find on the internet, or so lame you say WTF did I just buy. Ya know I have before, and so have you (fight me on that one lol)

Well, there is a new fad going on now, some are calling it a new way to sell Printable Wall Art.... lol... as an artist I laugh!!!

Some are referring to it an NFT's, which is something that has already been told about months ago.

They are also describing POD, print on demand....

Yet again, they are describing something known in graphics and art, as something that is simply sold as an original, one time, while copies are sold as prints, or fully on a canvas in a more mass produced market. Some of my own art is like this, at my actual art gallery online, not only will you find some of my art in various versions, such as wall art on print or canvas, but also physical items such as mugs and other useful objects, but there is one original of some art, which will only be sold to the one person, for a considerably higher price in most cases. This is usually an original hand drawn piece on paper or painting on canvas sent to the buyer at their physical address, or even a first digital final sent via email that has yet to be copied or transferred (something that reduces the quality of digital art (jpgs, pngs, tiffs etc) each and every time it is copied or transferred to an object of canvas.

In any case the concept is not new, only repurposed to fit the online market we all float in now, and the current products for sale, probably won't tell you anything more than this article link I am about to share. 

It is true, that many products claim that you could go research the product contents yourself, but it would cost you time and endless research and that is why you should buy their product. Poppycock! Well I have said this before and I will say it again......

If Content is King... 
RESEARCH IS FROM THE GODS!   Why?

Because there is no better way to learn and retain anything, than by doing it yourself! DIY Baby!

In the business I came from (entertainment) there is no better training than what we called "Hands On'... this means if you are going to be a recording engineer, sit down at the console and don't just watch, start mixing for yourself, watch listen learn and then DO! 

The entertainment field is full of Mimics....
Want to play guitar.... pick one up and start "experimenting" want to be a vocalist.... start singing to your favorite records, and leave no vocal experiment un-turned.... 

Want to learn how to weave baskets.... yeah you guessed it,,,,, dive right in and do it..... no book, or course alone can take the place of Hands On Training!

Now I am not saying books or courses are worthless, heck No I am not saying that, what I am saying in a really long way round type of fashion, is before you go spending your hard earned cash on every darned thing that tells you how to do this or that, 

DO A SEARCH!!! More so do your RESEARCH!!! there is a reason why the word Search is contained within the word Research and the MOST IMPORTANT THING.... not only will you learn for yourself (for free) but you will most likely find a plethora of other information your "course" did not cover.... AND you WILL RETAIN MORE OF WHAT YOU FOUND AND LEARNED BY RESEARCHING DIY!



Today many of you may have gotten a promo for a product for just what I am talking about, I will not outright call out any names etc.... but let's take a quick look at some of what is inside straight from the page....

READ THE ARTICLE!

Well a few days ago I wrote this article by pure instinct, and experience, and today I tell you I received email from someone who said they bought this (Hint: it is the newest product from  Alessandro) and they were appalled by the fact that they promoted it BEFORE they read what was inside. Apparently the advice given through this "course" is like to telling people to steal images from anywhere on the net, including Creative Fabrica, and use, "as is" as your own.....

While this is perfectly acceptable practice with Public Domain images, while even then you are encouraged to modify in some way, even the slightest, it is a whole different story from buying images on Creative Fabrica, and not modifying at all, and selling, or using them in POD with no modifications at all.... Who the Fuck does that.... excuse my mouth!!

For me, it is good to know my instincts still work at all... in this case my Red Flag was the fact that I am usually irritated several times a week, by these rip off type courses that don't do much more than scrape the internet for you.... Do the hard work people, and the payoff will be much more rewarding.... plus you too can call yourself an "Expert"  Hey, if "they" can, why can't you 

Oh WOW!
Is this the guy in Italy?

I agree with you about all these lame courses. Whatever happened to self taught lol!
