Frank Kern Busted by FTC - What Really Went Down

Y'all know Frank Kern right? The so-called $23 million copywriter? You may have noticed I've been slagging him off all over the net. Guess what. I've changed my mind. After talking to him yesterday and finding out the real story behind that FTC slapping I think he's a straight-shooter. Although what he did back in 2003 was dumb. Even he admits that. Read this. It's from his Mass Control blog

How to ruin your business in one easy step!

I’m guessing you probably already know that I was sued by the FTC back in 2003. After all, I talk about it publicly. But there’s probably a lot you don’t know about that whole story as well. So here’s the dirt.

Let’s talk about the dumb shit I did that got me in trouble in the first place.

Back in August of 2001, I created a product called Instant Internet Empires. I remember this well because I got the idea to create the product while I was sitting in a real estate licensing class.

Why was I sitting in a real estate licensing class you ask? Because I had temporarily been overcome with insanity and thought it might be a good idea for me to get a Realtor’s license.

Anyway, the class was boring as hell so my mind started to wander and I got to thinking about all the Internet Marketing products I’d purchased.

…And I noticed a common theme that was really popular back in the day: MASTER RE-PRINT RIGHTS.

Now, the term “Master Reprint Rights” simply means that you have the rights to re-sell a product and keep all the money …and you also have the rights to transfer that ability to others if you so desire.

It was all the rage back in 2001 and not only had I bought a ton of e-Books with Master Reprint Rights, I’d also noticed they were selling like crazy in the Internet Marketing community.
