That’s the three things that transcend everything, all states, all places, all configurations — that’s what you’re left with, if you’re not doing your spiritual work every day.
How do I know this? Same way you do. It’s a fact, and there’s no reason in Heaven or on Earth why you should have to endure that state forever. Continue reading
One minute — that’s all it will take to explain my latest side-hustle, “The Brass Spiral”, a set of earrings created out of an embossed sheet-brass free-form, anywhere from 2 1/2″ to 3 1/2″ in length, absurdly long for the average earring-wearer.
These take confidence to wear — however, the price is unbelievably right! I’m charging only $20 a pair for these things. Continue reading
Hey, I finally, after 22 years of experience as a Power-Seller and Platinum Seller on eBay, figured out how to construct an online auction, and I’ll be only too happy to share with you the results of my more than two decades of dedicated online labor.
“What works on youtube works on eBay” — meaning, the same rules of marketing — those of attraction, retention, and persuasion, absolutely apply, especially in the use of power words and phrases, tags and other hypermessaging devices you might choose to use. Continue reading
Someone just asked me if we have any collections for sale, and I answered “Are you kidding? All we have is collections!” so I thought I’d categorize them in more or less reasonable divisions of interest. Continue reading
Yeah, that’s what I said — “Horrifying, Disgusting and Provocative”, and you wouldn’t believe what happened — that’s when I took the advice of my friend Nessa — “Project Girl Boss” is her handle on youtube — to spice up my listings a bit with provocative instantaneous appeals to the emotional centrum. In short, shocking headlines, along with shocking and/or provocative photos, to oversimplify it quite a bit, but you get the general idea.
Well, Hell, my statistics went right through the sky. Continue reading
So I tried using the same techniques on eBay that I’ve been using on youtube, and by golly, it worked!
Same exact things do exactly the same on each venue. I can bump up the “view” rate and increase the number of bids, using the same skills and getting the same outcomes. Continue reading
A copy of Mario Brothers and a copy of Zelda went at about a million dollars each at an auction a couple of days ago.
You know what? I was a game developer back then, and I have a few trunkloads of early videogames, some of which were signed by the developers and of course never opened.
Gosh. Think about it. Had I not opened the boxes of my Zelda and Mario Bros. games, I might have been able to send several kids through college and have enough left over to buy myself a vintage Stingray to drive around the farm. Continue reading
Need more money???
Okay, how about a million dollars, just for starters? No, I’m not kidding, nor am I putting you on, or leading you by the collar or wandering down the rosebush lane.
It’s a fact that you have the very real possibility of becoming the most collectible and sought-after NFT creator on the planet, and all you have to do is TRY.
Oh, well, there goes the ballgame. Continue reading
I’ve been following my friend ‘Nessa on youtube for several months now on her youtube channel, “Project Girl Boss” — go to Nessa’s channel — and I have taken and relied upon her advice for many of my recent adventures in youtube marketing and promotion, and this evening, I communicated to her that the latest hint I had received from her videos was to be challenging, provocative and resistant in my headlines, at least, and I did it with about 20 videos I launched about 20 hours ago.
She is very responsive to her viewers and I appreciate this — it’s one of her primary recommendations, that you interact with others, and that’s good advice, in these isolated and troubled times.
For your very mental health, stay connected. Continue reading
I don’t know if this business of combining a NFT with some physical item on purchase is going to become a permanent part of marketing and sales, but I’m guessing that it will happen, is already happening, and I’ll explain how it works:
You buy a small painting from my gallery for $100.00 and, at the same time, at the very moment of purchase, I give you a chance to “win” back your money at the NFT sweepstakes by combining any NFT of your choice, or in the case of matched items, the NFT that is “paired” with your physical item that you purchased.
It’s really very simple. Calm your mind and take a breath. Continue reading
