Is this information found elsewhere, don’t know, maybe, I’m sure if you spend long enough you’ll be able to find most information that someone has paid for out there. But time is money for many of us, they can spend countless hours trying to find bits here and bits there, then how to put those bits together, or they can pay an amount for something that will take all that information, lay it out logically so that some action can be taken quicker.

There will be videos by class members coming out here and there, along the way as the class continues. But there is one story that was detailed in the class that I think is ok to share since the end video is on YouTube, so I don’t think it’s any type of private info.

Back-story: One member’s son was in the process of entering a video essay contest where the winner would get close to a 3K scholarship that could be used toward college. So he had his son, who’s 15, watch the first available set of videos with him. The son took that knowledge, again less than 1/6th of what will be available (but covers easily over 15 hours worth of video if I am not mistaken) and made his video in about 30 hours.

Not only did his get roughly 5x more views then the next group of leaders in 4 days, he ended up winning the scholarship. The video can be viewed here YouTube - Let's Revolutionize Higher Education! and the lesson here, is that he took action on what he learned so far, and within days made his money back. Is it the best video ever made? No, but it is pretty damn good for some kid and for its purpose, and I would be willing to bet, his style of video was very different than that of the other entrants. I can say that I found myself watching to the end.

No matter if knowledge gained is free or paid for; if someone doesn’t take any action using that knowledge it ends up worthless.

I really need to offer him something of more substance than an animoto video (love them by the way), or a powerpoint presentation.

Any Video Boss students out there with finished projects I could see?

Thanks!
