Happy Tuesday and Happy National Mail Order Catalog Day. Many would think it is hilarious that there are still mail order catalogs but some would say that they are making a comeback growing hundreds percent in the past few years.

As I explained to my daughter what is mail order catalog and all about Infomercials, we’ve watched the ‘Funniest Infomercials Of All Time’ and we literally had tears in our eyes laughing watching this video with the SlobStopper, PoopTrap, the Happy Dog Man, EZ Cracker, URO Club (don’t miss it) and more.

When I travel to the US, I always love to watch Infomercials as you can learn a lot of things you can (and should) utilize in your online marketing.

DO NOT Miss the Affiliate Master’s Roundtable By MaxWeb Connect starting today, learn “How Do Masters Of The Affiliate Space Scale Their Businesses To 8 Figure And Beyond”. 

Starting Today At 8:00 AM (EST)

Have a great day!
