Susan Boyle Still Dominating The Charts
British reality TV crooner and feel-good story Susan Boyle still has the top selling album after 4 weeks. Boyle’s debut “I Dreamed a Dream” at impressive sales of 2.46 million is closing fast on Taylor Swift’s “Fearless.” at 2.93 million for best selling album of the year. Boyle’s success confirms her vocal talent and the appeal of her real life middle aged Cinderella story. It also reveals that the demographics of CD buyers skew towards older Americans as young people increasingly use alternative sources such as iTunes and illegal downloading to procure their music.

I think this is an excellent idea considering the fact that you pay $1000′s of dollars to attend conferences and seminars on “how to make it”. This is just a shot in the arm to get a response directly from the person of your choice. It’s no different from you paying an attorney or physician to “give you advice” based on their level of understanding and profession. What’s even more interesting about this is the pros on Blazetrak are not “charging for advice”. They are charging for you to audition for an opportunity. Look at it this way. When you applied to go to college, you paid an application fee. The only thing you received was a letter of acceptance or rejection. Imagine if you could apply for college through the Blazetrak system and get a video response directly from the Director of Admissions explaining why you were excepted or rejected? This is what you are paying for. You are paying for the “professional” to spend time responding to you. Besides, I would easily pay Donald Trump to review my business plan and consider my idea for an investment, especially if I received a video response DIRECTLY from Donald himself. You are fooling yourself if you think otherwise.
