Remember a few months ago when we introduced you to the DiY-Filmmaking Super Hotline? And then for four consecutive weeks on the podcast we reminded you about the hotline’s existence and offered you gifts in exchange for your call? And do you also remember that [unless your name is Shaun] you decided for whatever reason that you didn’t want to call us? Good… because we remember that, too.
This made us sad but it also made us realize that the problem starts with us… and so will the solution. This is serious.
In an attempt to boost the number of incoming calls to our Super Hotline, we hired an extremely expensive and famous internet marketing corporation to come up with a more comprehensive marketing plan for the hotline. They determined that the best way to get more incoming calls would be to shoot a commercial for the hotline. A commercial that they were unwilling to let us be a part of. While this move seemed to go against everything we stand for with a DiY-Filmmaking website, they had a really nice powerpoint presentation with techno music that we just couldn’t say no to.
