OT:Training Videos

[Walter Vaughan]

I all comes back to a pretty girl. I just got a direct mailing postcard from 
Sage Software. It has a pretty girl sitting in side door opening of a VW 
microbus parked 50 feet from the beach. There is a surfboard leaned against the 
VW, and she's dangling her feet in the sand while typing on a Mac Powerbook. No 
question, it's a Mac Powerbook.

Where this gets interesting is that the card is designed to get me to signup for 
a Mas 90 learning courses, which of course is interesting since Mas90 only runs 
on WindowsXP and not a Mac (but that's not the point of this message).

And the thing the John Esak will appreciate is that the cost of the videos range 
from $890 for the 20 minute video to only $190 for the quick 5 minute video. Now 
you do get right to view the video for 12 months, so you can watch that 20 
minute video 890 times, and then it'll only cost $1 per viewing.

So John, you need to ditch the wizard stuff, and get a pretty girl. I'm thinking 
then you can charge a bazillion dollars for the hundreds of hours of videos you 
have created.
