if the show THE HILLS on mtv or some other bullcrap reality show can prosper..why cant bodybuilding?.....are the top men in the business not trying hard enough? do they lack marketing skills?..why dosent muscle tech or brands advertise on tv, signs , busess......is the reason why bodybuilding is such a low key sport because of the lack of knowledge on how to expand?....i know the olympia can draw some ratings on cable tv is marketed and proposed right?....discuzz

Well the ones with marketing skills are successful. There's some bodybuilders who don't even compete and make a good income. Some albeit doing "questionable" things

First step would be to eliminate the bb.

Dont compare to actors. 3/4 of the boneheads on here routienly call bodybuilders "athletes" (oh brother) so compare them with real athlete salaries!

So that was $90K.
Now take out the $20K in food and the $40K in juice and you have a net income of;
$30K and a fucked up body from juicing so hard.

Doing a lap dance and rubbing your ass against some 65 y/o schomoe's tool like DA does is not what most people would call "marketing skills". ::)

I think that falls under "questionable practices" not marketing skills.

They should give up their bodybuilding roots and become superstar actors like Kevin Levrone. I'm surprised he wasn't on that list!

As usual...thread is starting to go to s##t. Anyway...what is Phil earning vs some of the bottom dwellers?
Met Contract = $80,000 - $125,000
Contest earnings = $60,000-$80,000
Other Sponsors = $25,000 - $35000
Guest Posing (Top3-4) = $50,000 - $75,000
Free Eggs = $300
Free Chicken = $1500
What other cookie jar does he have his fat fingers in?
-
Jay Cutler makes great $$$$----but he markets teh shit out of himself---countless endorsments etc...
his prize money is very little of his income-----
he is one example of one of the smartest BBers who know how to maximize their earning potential------he unlike many other BBers he has never done any gay shit like musclegallery etc...which is smart on his part (Do you think Kai Greene will ever be Mr O---hahaha no way)

It is ALL marketing.
In ANY business
The best marketer WINS

Don't forget the IRS like Levrone was said to have done to the tune of $100K+

The first private Chef gig I had was when I just turned twenty. Some big shot trucker from Alabama, Wiley Sanders. You see his trucks all over in America. Starting salary was 120k a year. I'll say it time and time again. LEARN A TRADE!
Chef, as far as the trades go, I'd say you are the exception to the rule.
But great for you...I can't put a f----ng nail in wood!

A said some years ago that even he could not get it on TV (interview, MM, with Tyler Dinwoody)-he really ripped on today's bb's in the interview, that they presented so poorly in general that he just could not sell it.

Jeezus....where to begin?
I seriously doubt bbing would benefit from exposure. For the sake of argument, let's say it became a moderate success within the "mainstream".....what do you think would happen? If our Government is going after Baseball for Steroids, how could comp. bbing possibly win?
These guys (current crop) aren't very charismatic. They aren't very smart either. Add to that the fact that there's nothing entertaining to comp. bbing, and you've got nothing. There are no 3 pointers, no touchdowns, no KO's, et cetera. Fuck, no even a scoreboard.....they ARE STILL USING PENCILS FOR FUCKSSAKES!
Reality sucks.....comp. bbing will remain a cult for schmoes and worshipers....

I think Moosejay's nephew actually ranks in the top 10.

Hahaha...since I will be supllementing about 3,500$ for his trotal summer, I betcha that is actually right.
-
My guess that of the guys competing today, Ronnie and Jay are making more than 1mil profit per annum. Wolf will shortly also get there.
Below that, I would guess that most guys of the top 30 guys are making 100-250K profit purely form their sport, sponsorships, prize money etc.

Cutler, yes, Ronnie, a bit less now.
Profit? Maybe not after taxes, which would be profit.
The other guys???
No way...noty close for most

Where exactly do you think Ronnie is getting streams of revenue from?
BBers dont get "salaries"
THey get $$ From endorsements, guest posing, "private posing sessions" and contest winnings.
When was the last show ROnnie did?
When was the last guest posing he did?
Is he still with BSN?
If you think for 1 second Ronnie is currently earning anywhere near 1 mil anually then you are out of your mind.
Hell Chick doesnt even earn 6 figures and he is the "face" of BBing.com

Let add something additional to this...based another GetUnreal user. If the top 30 were netting 6 figs...then Chick wouldnt have to get group health. They could afford BC/BS ($150 mthly or so in CO), Aetna, Cigna or another private policy eventhough grp saves them hundreds.
Melvin is like top 10 and just stop doing nails recently. King would be eating his neighbor's grass if it wasnt for Barbara. After Ron, Jay, Phil, Wolf, Victor, Gunther and Dex...who is really earning a solid living on the men's side? If I was a sponsor...they'd all be broke b/c I'd be putting my money on the women. Dina and DJ wouldnt have to work again in this life.

The only other guys I can think of are Gustavo, Branch and Toney. Branch and Toney are smart though because they are taking their money and opening businesses so they will be set up pretty well when they quit.
On a side note I watched this MDtv video of an interview with the kid that just won the Teenage nationals and he said he's not going to college because he is planning on becoming a pro bodybuilder. So he's just working at a supplement store and training. lol. Someone needs to fucking slap that kid.

I forgot about Branch. He would actually be earning quite a healthy sum each year. He has a muscletech contract that would pay well, contest/guest posings, owns a very nice gym and is a personal trainer there and also owns a freight/logistics company. He said every sent he earns from bb'ing goes straight into the bank. Branch is doing very well. Smart guy.

Yeah i guess he has never spent a dime of his money he gets from Muscletech. I just hope the guy doesn't have any health problems by the time he quits bb.

Yeah i hope so.
Up until about a year ago i did not like Branch at all. I'd only ever seen footage of him in the gym and thought he seemed like a wanker. Then i saw the video MD did on him (pretty recently i think) and i was really impressed. Smart and hardworking guy. One of my favourites now.
