Real Men Real Style Summer 2012 Update - 1 Million Views, Thank You Giveaways, & More
Hey everybody! This is Antonio over at Real Men Real Style, and I wanted to give you guys
a Summer 2012 update as to what I have going on.
I've got four big announcements:
1. We've passed a million views, so I'm pretty excited about that and I'll be sharing with
you guys what's going to happen because of that.
2. The Style System right now is in full session and I'll be giving you guys a sneak preview.
3. The future of Real Men Real Style video channel, I'm going to let you know what's
going to go on in the frequency of the videos coming out.
4. And I need your help because I'm going to be giving away clothing and products worth
thousands of dollars this summer, and I would like your help to help get it out there, so
let's jump into it.
One million views and it's growing, so this is really cool, over 10,000 subs, 5000 views
per day, an international audience, and this is something I'm really proud of, is that
the comments and the interaction below my videos, they're really civil and they're very
helpful. I see people helping each other out. I'm going to talk about it a bit later, but
this is something I am very proud about. I'm very happy. I think people are really taking
value from these.
This summer, we're going to be having quite a few giveaways, but you need to be on the
email list, so you're going to see quite a few videos out there. We're going to be giving
quite a bit way. I'll talk a little bit more about that later.
Now, the Style System, it's in full session right now. I started two weeks ago and it's
going to be in session until July. Close to 100 men are improving their style right now.
It's going to be offered again in August, in case you're interested in looking at it,
and I want to give you guys a sneak peek because it's going really well and I'm really proud
of it, so let me bring this right over.
Here is the Style System. It's not overcomplicated. You've got a basic browser here at the top,
but let me give you a few pages. And by the way, it's got seven modules, seven bonuses,
but we're in the middle of it, and part of the strength of the Style System is I don't
give everything at the same time. It's step by step, piece by piece. But here, you can
see module one. We had four parts, but actually there's going to be another part, but you
would click on -- let's say you wanted to learn about how clothing affects behavior.
Well, we would have a video with an article and this is something I've never before released,
unique content, and here's the strength of the Style System, is the Style System has
42 tasks. And every time you read or you go through one of my Style System pieces, you
have to interact. And you're sending us information and you're basically talking about and we're
interacting on what we just covered.
This other one on Understanding Your Body Type, that's in module two. Again, you're
seeing information. I've created these images. I had an artist put them together for me and
we talk about every body type out there. I'm really giving you a lot more information than
I've released anywhere else. And then at the end of this, you are basically telling me
what your body type is and you're sending me some information which I then use to interact
with you and give you immediate feedback, so it's basically a college course.
In addition, we're supporting it with 15 webinars. We've already actually gotten through five
of them. These webinars are twice a week and they're live, and you get to interact with
me. Then we've got bonuses, so seven bonuses. Right now, we're at bonus two, but the one
that just came out the other day is Manly Manners and this is an independent PDF, a
quick read-through on understanding manners.
I've got this closed Facebook group where you can see everyone in the Style System is
invited to come in and interact and talk about style in an environment -- I would say I keep
it closed really because it's for the gentlemen that entrusted me to help them with this group,
but really, I wanted to create an environment which was friendly to people looking to improve
their style. That's what we got going on there.
Now, the future of the Real Men Real Style video channel, you're going to see less videos
over the next two to three months because I'm focused on the Style System. I'm creating
a lot of content for those gentlemen, so that’s where my focus is right now and on my custom
clothier. I'm still going to try to get out at least maybe one to two videos a week, but
it's not going to be the one video a day that you see.
We've got over 240 videos out there that we've created in the last year. And so, if you’ve
got a question -- mostly likely you haven't watched all those videos, so go back to the
archives and just check out some of the older videos. Also, I'm going to be experimenting
with different video styles such as presentations like this, but I'm also going to be partnering
with other channels. And if you've got suggestions of other channels that I should be partnering
with, go ahead and send them to me. I'd love to hear that.
Now, let's get to number four, giving away free clothing and products. Yeah, this channel
is successful because you have helped me build it. I recognize that. Also, you've provided
great comments and I want to recognize the people that have done this. You've shared
my channel with others via YouTube, but also on Facebook, Twitter, and even via email,
word of mouth. I want to thank the people that are doing this because you've supported
my Men's Style Q&A website and have made that other website what it is. So I'm asking your
help. I'd like for you to nominate the people who are champions of this channel.
Okay, so what are the guidelines? There are five guidelines, and guys, this is all I'm
going to give. I know everyone's going to have some particular question, but really
all nominations, first they're going to be selected from the below comments, so you need
to comment on this video. Please don't send me emails. Don't use the contact forum. It
needs to be public and it needs to be right below in this video, no other videos, this
video right here.
You can nominate yourself, but I think I'm going to lean on the people who nominate others.
And the great part here is if the person you nominate wins, both of you win. I'm doing
this because I want you to go back and look at older videos. I want you to go back and
look at the people that have championed this and be able to identify them. Perhaps you
came to this channel because somebody personally recommended it in a conversation you were
having over drinks. I want to hear that story.
Understand, and there are no set criteria as to what makes a winning entry. I'm looking
for unique, interesting stories that are very specific. I'm looking for people that have
championed my channel, so I don't care if maybe you have a big blog and you're able
to get a hundred people to my channel, or maybe you don't know that many people, but
you talked to two or three people, and both of them are now big proponents of what I'm
doing here. I'm going to judge those both the same. And probably, I'd like to see both
of those guys win, but really, the only thing I would say is provide specific information
and keep it under 500 characters, which YouTube limits you to.
Winners, they're going to be selected all summer or until I run out of gifts. So I'm
going to be giving this out as long as I can. I've got a lot of, let's just say, products
that people have sent me and I would like to go ahead and recognize a lot of the companies
that have sent me this, and I would like to go ahead and give you these products. We've
also got electronic products, which I'll be giving away as well.
Winners are going to be notified via the comments below. And from there, I'm going to ask you
to email me. So I know that a lot of these people, they're in a sense anonymous. It's
one of those things. I'm going to go ahead and leave a quick comment below your comment
below, so everyone can see it. And from there, I'll have you go ahead and contact me and
we'll exchange a bit of information just to make sure that you're the right person. And
then we will go ahead and I'll send you out a prize and we'll make it happen that way.
That's it. So I wish you guys to have a stylish summer and I will see you in the comments.
Bye-bye.
