Need some alum love

[ErickJD08]

OK.  My name is Erick Drobinski and I am an '03 grad.  I recently passed the bar in IL and I finished a project.  I made an educational CD called Professor Crass that teaches you how to curse in a dozen languages.  (German, Polish, French, Mexican and Spain Spanish, Hebrew, Hindi, Punjabi, Kannada, Arabic, Italian, and Mandarin.)  The inside cover also has figures describing how to make rude hand gestures in other cultures.  This is a good gag gift for students studying abroad and people who like to travel (and people who like to curse).  I need all the help I can get spreading the word that this product exists because there is nothing out there like it.  Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.  Thanks guys.  GO MU!

[ErickJD08]

www.professorcrass.com

GO MU

A guy can dream of getting rich off of cursing CD's.  That's why I love America.

I'm going to need a cut if you want me to promote this.    I'll get you at least 7,000 hits by the end of the night. 

[ErickJD08]

In the internet world, I think 1000 hits is worth 3 dollars.  But in all honesty, I will appreciate any help or suggestions I can get.

spray paint "ProfessorCrass.com" on the side of your car. 

[ErickJD08]

Then I should glue a megaphone on top of my car and circle Milwaukee saying "Buy Professor Crass or you will go to hell!"

In seriousness, buying an old ice cream truck, driving around college campuses with a catchy tune, and saying your pitch over the mic would probably be properly dumbasstic to get college kids attention. 

It's either that or streak across the ring during the next MMA fight with Professorcrass.com tatooed on your a##.

[ErickJD08]

Well, any alum help will be appreciated...

Contact Too Tan Tommy at turtlehead@IU.edu. He's a self-promoting marketing genius and I'm certain would love to help a Warrior out.

[ErickJD08]

Just emailed Too Tan Tommy at turtlehead@head.edu and it reads as follows:

"For a thousand dollars, I will tan an outline of your logo on my chest and strip during Midnight Madness."

HE IS A MARKETING GOD!!!

I think he is going to buy one.

Big thanks to you all who have helped me out with Professor Crass.  Just to give a quick update, I have recently sold a thousand CD's to Woot for this month's Wootoff.  The wootoff will be in about a week or so, but I will update on the specific date.  If anyone is interested in getting one, you might save a dollar if you get it through Woot.  Thanks guys.  I hope the MUScoopers get to meet up at a Chicago Marquette Watch for the Wisconsin game or something.  Later!

Congrats!  That helps recoup the investment!

Had an article written about the CD today... Check it out!'

I am posting because I think some of you might find this entertaining.  The Thrillist article has given me some good exposure.  Sooooo, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art is going to carry my CD in their store.  I personally think that is super random and pretty funny.
