All right folks, I’m ready to share what I’m attempting to create before August 30th.
It’s a Slick Rick vs eCourse Adventures rap battle.
If you don’t know what these are, then Youtube “Epic Rap Battle” and you’ll understand.
- I’ve written the poem, which I am refining today.
- Tonight, @blairfrancis and I are recording the lyrics in the studio.
You can see both in the next update.
August 10, 2017 at 3:13 pm #48603ROUGH DRAFT SCRIPT:
Blair and I are are going to be working this into a spoken word-style rap battle tonight. First time the spaceship has been off the ground for a while. Excited to create with him!
RICK:
Step right and learn my bluePRINT for making six figures faster than you can THINK.BRAD:
Come on Slick RICK, you’re making me feel SICK with all your SCHEMES for getting rich QUICK.RICK:
Don’t listen to him, he’s just a jealous SCROOGE. Now pay attenTION and I’ll tell yah what to DO.So first things’ FIRST, you gotta make a COURSE. Slap together a PowerPOINT and a PDF resSOURCE.
If you’re like ME, then a weekend’s all you’ll NEED, then you’ll be ready for the next step, just wait and SEE!
BRAD:
Come on Rick, that’s your adVICE? To make a halfassed eCourse without think-ing TWICE?The name of the GAME is to move your students forWARD. So you better get creaTIVE or they’ll quit cuz they’re BORED.
RICK
Forget that guy, he’s a wiener anyWAY. It’s time for the best PART… How you get PAID!So here’s what you DO, you slap a big price on your COURSE. Because they’ll think the value MUST be worth way MORE.
BRAD:
In the art of douchebaggeRY, I understand your GAME. But it’s moves like THIS that give eLearning a bad NAME.Now a better way to price IT is to find the double WIN, where you feel grateful and your students can’t-wait-to beGIN.
RICK:
Aw you’re gonna make me CRY. But if you follow him you’re businNESS will DIE.So let’s move to the third THING that you will need to DO, which is to build your lead magnet to attract people TO.
You gotta promise BIG with a free thing as your BATE, then upsell to the paid course that you creATE.
BRAD:
Well the first thing I’ll SAY is these are people not LEADS, so rather than manipuLATING, delight them for FREE.If you focus on serVICE and giving value up FRONT, then they’ll know if they like YOU and if what you DO is what they WANT.
RICK
…Sounds like a winning strategy for a loser….Once you flush them down your funNEL and give their “gift” at no COST, it’s time to send a ton of emails til they buy or get LOST.
To ensure they buy FAST, you gotta play on their FEAR. Make them feel like they’re missing OUT if they don’t buy HERE.
BRAD:
Or instead of that strateGY, you could play the long GAME. Which is to create amazing offerings that give you a good NAME.As people’s lives CHANGE and word starts to SPREAD, you’ll be a trusted LEADER, rather than like HIM, whose-reputation-ill-be DEAD.
RICK:
Pffft. Yeah. Whatever.So, this brings us to my one final STEP. Sign up for my eCOURSE and I’ll show you the REST.
For one easy payment of 997, I’ll lead you myself to six figure HEAVEN. But you need to act NOW cuz there’ limited SPACE and I only work with people who take action TO-DAY
BRAD:
Bravo Slick Rick, that sounds like quite a DEAL. Or perhaps I should say, more like a STEAL.RICK:
Thanks.BRAD:
So with all this being said, it’s time to CHOOSE your own FATE. Do you follow down Ricks PATH or do you MAKE something GREAT?RiCK
That’s the worst advice I’ve heard in all of my TIME. Cuz you’re a loSER If you don’t follow MINE. So buy my Course toDAY cuz you’re running out of TIME!!August 10, 2017 at 3:20 pm #48605Audio Clip of Slick Rick Lyrics:
This is an extremely rough recording. I made it as a “proof of concept” sort of thing, so I could pitch it to Blair and Andy, to investigate if it’s worth making.
They both thought it was, so now we’re doing it.
I hope you enjoy my messy creative process.
More updates coming.
August 10, 2017 at 3:22 pm #48607Who is “Slick Rick?” This is Slick Rick.
Slick Rick is one of the guest teachers way up at Marketa Ridge. Don’t worry, you’ll meet him later in the eCourse Adventure journey…. or at the end of this month if all things go as planned 😉

August 10, 2017 at 3:24 pm #48609My Intentions with this Challenge:
I have asked @blairfrancis, our dear brother who did all the video production for the Great eCourse Adventure to be my mentor in production and editing. We are making the music together and from there, he will only guide me to be a great editor. This video will be my best attempt of taking the reins that Blair has been holding on our team.
I am extremely excited to learn and grow through this challenge.
I really see this challenge happening for me over the next 10 years.
I no longer resist video production. I am finally excited about all of it and all the things I can create through it.
That feels so much lighter!
Gonna be a fun August Challenge.
Great luck everyone.
August 11, 2017 at 2:32 am #48629@bradleytmorris… I’m going to admit. I’m loving it and laughing. What a fantastic rough draft. Love it.
August 11, 2017 at 9:15 pm #48716Thanks @mars

We had a blast. We are filming the video next Thursday night.

August 14, 2017 at 12:02 pm #48937So fun Brad, I love you brother, you never let go of the playing/creative side, after my own heart homey!
August 14, 2017 at 3:31 pm #48957@scott, join the August challenge. I’d love to see you make a video sharing your comedy, music, magic and wisdom!
August 14, 2017 at 5:11 pm #48983Hilarious!!
So much (uncomfortable) truth and LOL moments in there.
Oh, the de-conditioning from internet marketing madness is real.
You know, reading the script and watching the video of Slick Rick made me realise how subtly some aspects of that war-like marketing mindset and black art psy ops still creep into my business from time to time…
At least into what I tell myself I “should” be doing. So it’s good to get some illumination on that!
