WCN TRANSMEDIA SPORTS & FITNESS SHOWDOWN "CAN LIGHTNING STRIKE TWICE IN THE SAME FAMILY




WCN TRANSMEDIA SPORTS & FITNESS SHOWDOWN "CAN LIGHTNING STRIKE TWICE IN THE SAME FAMILY

TAEBO    VS    WILLINETICS

Everyone has or knows someone who has bought a  TAE-BO TAPE, or DVD Package.  Just look in the Garage or basement.   Here are some numbers: Tae-Bo exploded after being favored and featured on the OPRAH Winfrey show. Today we believe that it is WILLIE'S TURN to share the Spotlight.

Everyone knows the financial success of TAE-BO. In 1999 over 5million copies of the Tae-Bo workout videos/DVDs were sold. This is equivalent to grossing over $250 Million dollars in revenue, making TAE-BO one of the most successful Fitness Enterprises of all time. Can You imagine what would happen if OPRAH did the same feature with Willie Blanks? Yes, lighting would definitely strike twice in this family!
Here is a CNN Report on the revelation about Billy Blank's fight with dyslexia.  It is in light of this that WCN Transmedia Research Group examines how this disease may have made Billy forget his family financially.  To many over-achiever's, dyslexia affects a number of us. However, it does not cause us to live a lie. Yes I said it. Dyslexia does not cause one to build a career on helping people only to ignore and be unsupportive of your own brothers and sisters, nieces, and nephews and more. The Blanks Family has a tradition and a bond that has been shattered by the success of one member. Right now Billy and Willies nephew is in a homeless shelter or living in a house/group home with at least 3 to 4 other people.  How and why is this happening? And if, for no other reason, this post is necessary to highlight this un-noticed situation.



http://edition.cnn.com/2002/HEALTH/09/26/hln.bio.billy.blanks/






After an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show, Billy Blank's Tae-Bo Exploded.  It is my hope that this little blog will provide Willie Blanks the same opportunity to launch WILLINETICS and at the same time help his immediate family that has been faced with year after year of hardship.   Both WILLIE, BILLY AND I may indeed have a bit of Dyslexia, I hope that one of the symptoms is NOT turning our backs on those who are immediate family while projecting and presenting the media another story of success.   I know Willie and he would never turn his back on his family after financial success. I’m sure that his siblings would all vouch for him validating this statement. There are always two sides to every story and who knows what Billy would say. I invite him to comment. I don't know Billy. However, from listening to his own words about WILL POWER, this may be the closest endorsement that Willie  Blanks whose program is called WILLINETICS will EVER get from his brother BILLY BLANKS. Without knowing it, Billy may have just endorsed why WCN Transmedia is convinced that LIGHTING CAN STRIKE TWICE IN THE SAME FAMILY. Let’s listen and judge for ourselves, where he might have picked up a few of his truths.




WILLIE BLANKS IS THE REAL DEAL AND WE PREDICT THAT HE IS THE BLANKS TO WATCH GOING FORWARD.

To be as positive as possible the Transmedia Opportunity here is the launch of WILLIE BLANKS, Founder of WILLINETICS. A CHARISMATIC PHENOMENON in his own Right.   





Year after year, the BLANKS Name has bought into Media's Scarcity policy and therefore with the diagnosis we seek to forgive, and I have on good authority that the family loves BILLY, supports him and may even get on my case for sharing this.  

However, most of the outside on lookers believe and know BILLY as giver to all. Is this really true? Or is there a missing part to this story? I have watched the bond between VENUS AND SERENA WILLIAMS, TIKI BARBER AND HIS BROTHER, THE TWO DOUG'S AND OTHERS THAT YOU CAN BRING TO MY ATTENTION.  Why couldn’t there be a bond between the whole BLANKS FAMILY and success for all and not just for one. I ask you the public again, CAN LIGHTNING STRIKE TWICE? WCN Transmedia is Featuring WILLINETICS, The WAKE UP WITH WILLIE Fitness talk show coming out of ATLANTA GEORGIA.

WCN TRANSMEDIA EVENT SHOWCASE "TVOT" TV of Tomorrow Show 2011     May 17-18, 2011  Yerba Buena Center for the Arts   San Francisco, California Hosted by  Tracy Swedlow Founder, CEO, Editor-in-Chief, Co-Producer TVOT, Sponsorships.



First let me say that there has never been a more informative and exciting conference or time to be alive.  The acceleration of Facebook, Gaming and literally Trillions of dollars in global distribution opportunities for Artists, Fans, Innovators and yes friends even Customers.  The ultimate win win is on the horizon and may just be the economic change we have all been looking for.  What Tracy and Team has created in my opinion is the Social Media Equivalent to NAPTE, NAB, MIPCOM, and more. As convergence allows Producers of Content access to Advertisers for Product Placement WCN Transmedia Group is conducting several Transmedia Research Projects to match Content to Advertisers.  Those of us who have invested our lives in creating content only to find that Scarcity is a tool to limit creativity and access to licensed content. And speaking of Licensing what has it done for you lately.  Well should a invitation come I would love to share 
Transmedia Brandcasting will affect the future of the entire Entertainment Supply Chain.  Folks no need to be afraid we can bridge the gap between Traditional Media and New Social Transmdia. We are so confident that for the first 100 Advertisers, Agencies and Content Owners who join our Transmedia Brandcasting Research Project will get Free Mapping of 10 Hours a $100,000 Dollar Value for content to be monetized for instant purchase opportunities pushed throughout the Global Social Media Universe. And Agencies will receive a double their income guarantee from WCN matching whatever Agency Fee charged to an Advertiser WCN will match that commission.  WCN 
will be seeking Strategic Alliances for Transmedia R&D and the deadlines will be coordinated with through the end of TVOT Conference May 18th Register a Like on Facebook and be one of the first 100 to make Transmedia History.
