Can I make ten times more money if I cry??

26 replies
Have you ever seen a show, like a contest show, or something like "shark tank" where the contestant gives it his all, then sheds a tear or two - and la and behold he makes millions!

Anyways, my question is... will I make 10 times more money if I cry on video?

What do you think?

    Absolutely, and if you tearfully run out of tissues, you will probably even make more than that. LOL

    You mean people will give you money out of compassion for your misery? Somehow, I think not.

      John and anyone else that cares,

      Usually tears and a dribbling nose accompany real crying. Watch the video again and tell me that you see tears or moisture on the face at any time.

      The whole thing is there to bring attention to the cryer, not Britney.

      It reminds me of the approach of many marketers. Fake it, try to fool your prospects into believing that you care so they sympathize with you and your cause. Underlying the whole "see my passion" display is the simple goal - get all the eyeballs and traffic that you can.

        Steve, that was part of my point. It had nothing to do with Spears and everything to do with drawing attention to Crocker and his "crocker-dile tears"

        (Sorry, I couldn't help myself.)

        In the years since, the copycats have been busy. Go to YouTube and search on "leave Britney alone".

        Before his fake tantrum, there is little mention of Chris Crocker. Since, he's been on several tabloid and sleazeball talk shows.

    Unfortunately most of the "sheeple" out there are too stupid to see through it.

    I hope you are kidding but somehow I think many will stoop to this pathetic ploy. If you have real marketing skills you don't need to be a phony lying weasel.

    Umm apparently the experts here don't realize that appealing to emotion is EXACTLY what successful marketing is all about. So yes, crying like a bitch will probably work well for you...unless you're targeting badasses...then you'll just be called a bitch.

    Well... my instinct says no
    Joking aside, video marketing is actually quite a profitable thing, if you know how to sell yourself. Sometimes, feelings of pity can actually help... the sadder the video, the more views I guess..

      Adding theater to your sales message will always help it resonate better. I don't think crying by itself has much to do with it.
