Ask a Ninja did it. (If you haven’t seen Ask a Ninja yet, you are missing out on one of life’s guilty pleasures.)
Now we’re doing it with the web’s first Internet marketing reality show, The Next Internet Millionaire.
The buzz is growing, and in the first two weeks we are already mentioned or linked on over 20,000 web pages!
And it is because of you! The general public loves the story and bloggers are writing about it like crazy. Auditions are coming in and our web site actually had more traffic than AmericanIdol.com one day last week according to the Alexa rating service.
Now, I’d like to invite you to take part in the buzz in a whole new way.
And I’d like to offer you a link on The Next Internet Millionaire web site, as well as an opportunity to win an iPod Nano!
