BBC Working Lunch
An interesting day.
Filming for BBC Working Lunch programme – to air in a couple of weeks – discussing online business, the digital revolution and how to make money out of the WWW.
Probably put a good 3 hours of filming in. That will end up as 3 minutes!
Yesterday I did some filming (again for the BBC) on the thorny issue of vet fees. This is a topic I’ve spoken about before for another programme, however I always retain a degree of concern until these things actually air. It is very, very easy to be ‘misrepresented’ (sometimes intentionally, often not).
For example:
“I believe a number of vets are absolutely overcharging their customers and they are giving the industry a really difficult image problem to overcome. However, they are the tiniest minority and the vast majority of vets are amazing, do incredible work and we’d be in a hell of a mess without them”
can easily become…
“I believe a number of vets are absolutely overcharging their customers and they are giving the industry a really difficult image problem to overcome.”
So, we’ll see.

Hi Ryan, I Watched our piece on Working Lunch last week & was curious. You mentioned some people were making upwards of 3-4 million dollars on the WWW. Is this pure profit or Sales revenue? (with which a fractional amount is taken as commission)
Thanks,James
That’s mainly profit. Commission on product sales is revenue minus cost of marketing.
Thats extraordinary for one month! I’m guessing these are no one-man operation but fully fledged companies based in the states/europe.
