You guys could go on the road selling band instruments and uniforms. Then after you skip town with the money, you send them a letter offering to sell them a correspondence course on how to play a musical instrument...what a deal!
Gordon, I did as you suggested and watched "The Music Man" about a week ago. (I checked it out for free from the local library.)
Watching it from a marketing perspective was very enlightening...thanks for the tip.
The correspondence course is a viable idea. I took one 30 years ago (guess that makes me an ol' geezer candidate) from Cleveland Institute of Electronics. It helped me to get (matter of fact, "guaranteed" that I would get) my FCC First Class License which was required at the time to work on broadcast transmitters.
I liked the correspondence course because I could work ahead, as fast I wanted. I crammed a two year course into less than six months. I was doing 4-5 lessons per week. (Course design was one lesson per week.) I wanted out of my old assembly line job so bad that I devoured the course. (Wish I had that kind of motivational energy now! Where's that guy with the size 19 boot when you need him? A good kick in the posterior is good for everyone once in a while...)
Set up the school and continue to offer additional courses...Basic Chattel 101, Intermediate Chattel Techniques 201, Improved Chattel Techniques 202, Advanced Chattel Methods 301, Advanced Techniques of Chattel Marketing 302, Guerrilla Tactics for Chattel Procurement and Marketing 401, Advanced Guerrilla Chattelling 402, Killer Techniques for the Professional Chattellor 501, etc.
Of course, you already know all this stuff...it helps me to think it through if I share it with someone.
Keep up the good work.
(It is hard for me to stay focused when everyone keeps coming up with new ideas!)
Be blessed,
JDB
P.S. Julie Jordan Scott's insight on the "Chicken Run" movie was a real eye opener, too. I just thought it was a funny flick for the kids.
