A front door, not a funnel
Wake Up Now is where BrainO puts its best foot forward. It's Colin's front door to the network — the place where you meet the work before you meet the machinery. There's no hard sell here. Just the things Colin has made, laid out plainly, with a one-dollar-a-month invite if you want to see the rest.
What's behind the door
Colin's memoir Written Off sits at the centre of it. It's the story that started a lot of this, and it's still the best introduction to how Colin thinks. Then there's Songs of the States — a musical project that does what it says on the tin, one song for each state. The videos are there too, for when you'd rather watch than read. And the bookshop, which is exactly what it sounds like: a place to browse and buy.
There's also Out of the Box Advertising, which is Colin's take on getting the word out without the usual noise. It's part of the same front door because it's part of the same philosophy — do good work, tell the truth about it, and don't make people jump through hoops.
Who it suits
Wake Up Now is for anyone who wants to know what BrainO is about before they sign up for anything. If you've heard Colin's name and wondered what the go is, start here. If you like the idea of a network that doesn't auto-charge you or lock you in, start here. If you're curious about the memoir, the songs, the videos, or the bookshop, start here.
It's also for people who are already part of the network and want a single place to point friends and family. One link, everything explained.
How it fits the network
Every site in the BrainO family is connected. One account carries across all of them, so if you sign up at Wake Up Now, you're in the system — no need to remember a dozen passwords or re-enter your details every time. Products across the network are a dollar a month. Nothing is auto-charged. You pay for what you use, when you use it, and you can stop whenever you like.
That's the whole idea: low friction, low cost, high trust. Wake Up Now is the friendliest way in.
The invite
If you like what you see, there's a $1-a-month invite to the whole system. It's not a trial that turns into a bill. It's not a subscription that sneaks up on you. It's a dollar a month, and you decide each month whether to keep going. That's it.
So have a look around. Read a chapter, listen to a song, watch a video, browse the bookshop. And if you want more, the door's open.
