I got this DVD at the Arnold.

It is very good, nicely presented and an outstanding price.

I highly recomend it :)

We had every intention of doing that.  Until we were unable to sell tickets to our events and I lost 340,000 dollars putting on this show.  I'm sorry if 10.00 is to much for you to pay.  You obviously wouldn't have paid 50.00 for a ticket. 

I still was the first person to ever put a show on the internet for free, only to have someone else claim they were the first 6 months later

Yeah, props for that man.  True pioneers are never recognized.

Was it bodybuilding.com that made that BS claim?

I sent an email to deluca, it was all good.  As much as people would like to think it, most of us don't have beef with each other (online owners).  I have nothing against those guys at all.  I just emailed them to remind them that I was the first one to do that.  We laughed it off.

I gotta say that the clarity of the preview video was amazing for the internet. At $9.99 how can you go wrong to buy this DVD.

Mike,
Are you able to sell the DVD at $9.99 without incurring a loss?

Thanks!

(My next email will be to shawn ray, asking him if he'll be charging 29-39 for the Colorado Pro DVD, or if he'll give the fans a break like 1Fast400 and charge ten bucks)

Realistically the cost of a disc and case and any additional material in the DVD shouldn't be more than a buck.  I bought 500 cases for $0.40 each CDN dollars which is like $0.01 USD.   ;D  The film production costs are something else to consider though.

True. And the desire to earn profit.  However, I'd love to hear just how many Mike sells this weekend as a result of this terrific price.   I'd bet he'll sell more than triple what he could at $30 apiece, and earn more fan goodwill in the process as a result.

I spent 75k on audio/video over the course of the whole weekend.  The cost of the dvd is minimal vs the cost of actually GETTING that footage. 

At this point, I just want people to see we had a cool stage and offered something different.  The money always helps.  Even when it's not on sale, it will be 14.99.

Your business must be damn successful for you to sell for so low like this.

Businesses can often sell lower by either reducing the number of resource inputs, or by maximizing the outputs.   Mike might work hard and fast, achieve economies of scale with high volume, or he may have a family of Thai prisoners working in his basement.

He can make the dvd for peanuts, whether he sells more units by reducing the price remains to be seen.  All I know is that it benefits the individual customers and gets the word out.  Whether that will sell many more tickets in charlotte this year (if it happens) I don't know.. maybe.

340,000 dollars?

Forgive my ignorance/skepticism, but you really lost 340K on this show?

How is this possible + why would you take such a risk?

You make an excellent point...speaking of which, I think you could sell more than triple the websites you could sell at $300 if you lowered your price point to $99.95, and you would earn more dork goodwill in the process as a result.

True. But then I'd have to start snorting coke and eating pixie sticks to stay up all night working on sites.

And I am not trying to get cavities.
