In this 7th installment of The Next Internet Millionaire series, the All-In and Knuckle-Sandwich teams battled it out in true "reality show" fashion. What is this show, you ask? The series is the brilliant idea of Joel Comm, an Internet Marketing guru, and author of the New York Times bestseller, "The Adsense Code." With "Trump-esque" style, Comm assigns tasks to the teams of contestants - the loosing team goes to "the judgment room - where someone will be eliminated." In addition, this reality show would not be complete without the "Hacker Safe Immunity Challenge" (Note: Hacker Safe is a well known Internet security company, offering website protection and certification.) The winner of this challenge earns a shirt with the "Hacker Safe Logo" and is "immune" from elimination for the rest of the day. The series is tremendously popular: Already, episode 7 has been viewed almost 90,000 times!
Watch Episode Seven:
*** Note: This Review contains spoilers ***
In the earlier episode, the All-In team opted on sports figurines to sell on E-Bay, while the Knuckle-Sandwich team chose Coca Cola collectibles, instead. Knuckle Sandwich misspelled Coca Cola on the E-bay listing and also had a net loss on the sale. However, Comm seemed more concerned with All-In's poor performance in the sale of the sports figurines. They did not present the items well, and seemed to make bad choices with respect to aspects of the sale. Of particular note was the fact that they made only about 99 cents!
Comm himself was able to list and sell items that had been rejected by Knuckle-Sandwich, making $50.00. He also gave helpful "tips and "suggestions" to the viewing audience. They were certainly relevant to most viewers: Many have already bought/sold items on E-Bay – or, will do so in the near future.
So - "Knuckle-Sandwich" went to "judgment room!" Nico Pisani had already won the Hacker Safe Immunity Challenge and was the possessor of the "token immunity shirt." For that reason, he was "safe" and could not be sent home. The only other two on the team were: Jaime Luchuck and Laura Martin. After making a difficult decision, Comm chose to send Laura home, while Jaime remained.
The competition takes place in Loveland Colorado, and the remaining contestants were then able to take a nature hike in the scenic Rocky Mountains. This allowed the viewing audience to experience some of the splendor of nature, and probably contributed to the "drawing power" of this exceptional series.
In my review of the first episode, I stated that the series really seemed to be "taking off." I can certainly say that this prediction seems to be accurate: As time goes on, more and more people are becoming aware of this "Internet Phenomenon."
