A girl I work with recently told me about this new Energy Drink that is supposed to be God's gift to the thirsty nation. Being skeptical -- I can hear my friends gasping in shock and disbelief now. "What?!? Scott? Skeptical? How unusual!" -- I approached it slowly but inquisitively. I've been down this road before. Usually turns out whatever the new power product is, the whole thing is 90% hype built on a creaky lean-to in the shape of a pyramid.
So I researched it. Looked it up. Read about all the Pros and Cons. Talked to people that hated it. Talked to people that loved it. Looked into Pyramid schemes. Drank some. And made my own decision.
I joined up.
The drink is called Efusjon, and I joined for mainly two reasons: One, I'm a connesoir of the high-powered energy drinks, and Two, I am also one of those people you read about that has health concerns from drinking too many.
From 1999 to 2007 I taught Comedy Traffic School out here in LA. It's where I accumulated all the facts, figures, and humor I put into my book, "How to Avoid Traffic Tickets Forever!" (http://www.amazon.com/ and http://www.lulu.com/). It is also where I found myself chugging down three or four of those energy drinks every weekend for eight years. Not the Efusjon, it didn't exist back then. I'm taking Monster, Rock Star, Red Bull, and my personal favorite, Whoop Ass! from the fine folks at Jones Soda Company. I needed them. I opened my eyes to a grumpy audience of 40 pissed off people at 7:00 am on a Sunday morning, and I was starting in on doing eight straight hours of stand-up comedy. And this was twice every weekend, in addition to working as a fourth grade teacher from Monday to Friday. For. Eight. Years.
As a result, I developed killer timing, an innate ability to read an audience, a fool-proof comedic delivery, and a case of Grey Matter Heterotropia (go ahead. look it up.). It's a brain disorder, from a combination of working too hard, not enough sleep, and drinking too many energy drinks loaded with caffiene, taurine, and a host of other high-powered chemicals. It's not something I'll die from, but it's a pain in the ass.
I had to make serious changes in my diet, stop the weekend teaching gigs, slow down, and give up the energy drinks forever.
So back to Efusjon. The reason I dig this product is I wish I'd had it 10 years ago. It has none of that crap that helped the onset of my condition. NO CAFFIENE. NO Taurine. No Chemicals. No Sodium. And HALF the SUGAR of any of the other energy drinks out on the market today. It's all natural with that Acai Berry juice that's all the rage right now, plus a host of other natural berries to give the body everything it needs for a natural energy boost, without the bad stuff.
So I actually like the product, and that's a huge plus for me. And then there's the pyramid side of the whole thing. So, yeah, it's kinda pyramidy, I'll admit that. But it's not the kind of pyramid scheme where you bug the crap outta your friends over and over again in the hopes they'll give you money. That just pisses people off. I only have to get three people in with me (and I already have two, so relax), and then I'm done. That's it. I look at it this way, I'm joining like a Cheese of the Month Club, or something. I get to network and go to parties with like-minded people who are interested in the product or entreprenuership or talking about small businesses or marketing or whatever, and each month I get a case of the product to drink, give away, or throw away if I so choose. No selling. It's nice.
The kicker for me was that the product is about to launch on Facebook in July, and if you're signed up, it could be lucrative once the four million daily users start to check it out. Kind of like a stock tip before a company goes public. So I'm rolling the dice on this one, nation! I've shy'd away from these deals before, but this time I figured, what the heck? The way the economy is, who can say for sure what the next big fad will be? Could be Efusjon.
But I'm not urging anyone to blindly sign up! Know what you're doing, and then join up under someone who's in that you already know. Do Not get into this if you have one iota of reservation. This is not for people who are skeptical. And I can 100% appreciate that. I was skeptical, too, remember? (I know, hard to believe.) I'm just saying. Make your own decisions. You want to check it out? Go onto my website at www.myefusjon.com/scottsaidso and look it over. Pay close attention to the "Who We Are" and the "Get Paid" parts. Check out the Power Point video about how the whole thing is set up, and pay close attention to the Matrix (that's the "pyramidy" part). And Google "efusjon" so you can read about it and hear what people are saying about it, like I did. You want to ask me about it, ask me about it. Email me at ScottSaidSo@yahoo.com anytime. But do your homework. Then come back and tell me what you think. I'll still be here, sipping one of these and quietly reading the fine print.....hmmm....Chokeberry? What the hell's a Chokeberry? That can't be right...
