OMG Celebrity Rehab Sober House!

holy crap did anyone see that? I mean, really? really? REALLY STEVEN? Did you really show up to sober house with heroin and needles? This is the awesome power of addiction. This blogger is currently in his 3rd day of not smoking, an attempt to quit smoking that was failed once or twice before. Sure I want a smoke, but you know what I want much more than that? To not be a smoker. If Steven wanted to get clean, he would. The power of addiction is not stronger than the will of a man who wants to quit. Godspeed Steven. Godspeed.

Nothing Sold on eBay

Bummer. This is why it's a marketing blog and not a success machine. The first part of starting any new venture is that you should expect a lot of fail along the way if you want success. I will keep plugging away, back to the drawing board.

It All Must Start Somewhere

Officially have 1 watcher on the Steven Adler "Enjoy Coke" print. When we look back at history, we will mark the day where it began with that single watcher on that single auction on eBay. That watcher may become a buyer. That buyer may tell a distributor, and next thing you know we hit the internet harder than porno. Ok not that hard but hopefully still enough to make a small profit.

Just Watched Steven Adler on Celebrity Rehab

Wow, what a great show. Celebrity Rehab is an amazing show. I'm not going to lie to you, I frequently have a beer while I watch it. Steven Adler went completely nuts on Shelly tonight on Celebrity Rehab with Doctor Drew (who is amazing throughout the show). You can tell he is completely detoxed but very, very agitated as he goes through rehab, and hopefully on to sober living. I have had a close friend enter a detox center and choose not to go to sober living, and currently he is relapsed. I sure hope Steven makes the right decisions. I am marketing this picture of him standing next to the coke machine because it is funny and ironic - and while it pokes fun at addiction it is important to realize how serious and life-changing it really is. Godspeed Steven Adler, godspeed.

Just Listed The Print on eBay

Check it out:

Steven Adler "Enjoy Coke" 16 x 20 glossy print on eBay

We are offering this print (and others from David's collection which includes Madonna, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Sam Kinison) on eBay. The beginning of any major marketing push has to start on eBay :)

Steven Adler Coke Cafepress Store Open

The first step to marketing a picture this cool on the internet is to instantly create a Cafepress store so the picture can immediately be purchased as a T-shirt. I personally believe that this picture of Steven Adler will blow up real huge on a T-shirt. Of course we are going to sell prints (I will be listing the eBay auctions here very soon) but this image just works great on a Tshirt.

Steven Adler "Enjoy Coke" @ Cafepress. Buy the Steven Adler "Enjoy Coke" image on a Tshirt or many other items.

Steven Adler "Enjoy Coke"

Steven Adler was a great drummer. Extremely talented. Extremely addicted to drugs... Flash back to 1987 where David Plastik was working as a photographer for Guns 'N Roses. GNR was on tour and David snapped thousands of amazing photos. Then David found poker, and the piles of pictures lied relatively dormant - until now. We are starting to market amazing never before seen pictures from David's collection, and we will begin with "Steven Adler - Enjoy Coke". This ironic photo was taken some time in 1987 during the endless downtime between shows. This blog will contain updates on how we are marketing the picture. Oh yeah, the picture. Check this out. It's gonna be huge:
