    Default Is it worth it? public humiliation

    I found a way to get thousands of views using a social media which will help promote my business, but it will tarnish the image I want to come across as (since I am the spokes person of my business). The concept has been done before, but I am going to take to a whole new level. (this person I look at had 99 k viewers, and about 6 videos in the 60+ k range) She had nothing special about her, it's just the process of what she done that lead to her being shocking... it's something I can do.

    This is all base on image, so it has nothing to do with morality, except promoting a "mental illness" . Eating disorders to be exact. I think if I do it well, I can get a million hits in about a year's time.

    Yet I think if I carry through the embarrassment, it might lead to a viral video(s). I desperately need viral videos to make this successful, or else my business will just collapse into the obscurity of the internet.

    If I don't do it, then I won't get thousands of hits... and the business I am planning is going in operation in November/early December.

    I am trying to think of the fastest way to promote, without waiting 2-3 yrs (like writing a book; which I am in the process of that, but it takes time to publish), and this seems to be a sure-fire thing to spark it.

    Go for it. No risk, no reward, right?

    hmm...

    I suppose. It can't do that much harm, except turn off future customers.

    Here is my humble opinion, look at the quality of views, anyone can buy fake hits and reviews and more but do you build a loyal customer fanbase over the long term.... think about mj if he had created a fake persona just views to get the book out then you would probably move on the next big thing but her is the real deal so should you... create loyalty versus quantity....

    You can get a million views without making an ass out of yourself. My current project has quite a large "publicity prize stunt" that "unlocks" prizes for every million units sold.

    The combination of product being sold and prize being given has already proven to be extremely desirable and I get a large amount of leads daily just off the initial campaign I've started.

    And I haven't embarrassed myself one bit...
