Now this is a killer salesman.

Just an average cold call from Kenny Brooks selling Advanage cleaners.

How many people would think it possible to launch a comedy career as a door to door salesman? That sounds too impossible to even be worth the energy. Kenny Brooks’ positive attitude, passion, and ambition are contagious though, and now millions of people will know his name.

All of this from an average cold call. Probably one of hundreds he makes everyday.

The energy you put forth in life will come back to you.

Need to Giveaway $4,000 Worth of Adwords

Sat, 12 Nov 2011 10:05:05 -0600

Through the Google Engage program I have 40 $100 vouchers good for new Adwords accounts only. They expire pretty soon and I just need to get rid of them.

Unfortunately I don’t have time to manage any other accounts right now, however I can give advice to any of my friends about getting started.

Who uses Adwords? Anyone can - its a great way to advertise any business. If you know someone interested just let me know.

My gorgeous girlfriend on the Ghost Walk Tour our last time in Jefferson TX.

We’ll be back in a couple of weeks to stay in the “Jay Gould” room in the Excelsior House. The same room that is rumored to have inspired Spielberg to make Poltergeist based on his experiences in this room.

I thought that story was made up until I found mention of it in this 1974 Texas Monthly.

Wish us luck!
