A front door, not a maze
Some doors you knock on and wait. Wake Up Now is the one that opens straight into the place. It is Colin's front door to the BrainO network, which means it is where a curious visitor can get the clearest look at what the whole family of sites is actually about.
The name does a fair bit of the work. Wake Up Now. No drumroll, no countdown timer, no pressure. Just an invitation to have a look around and see whether any of it fits.
What is behind the door
There is a decent spread here, and it is all Colin's. Start with the memoir, Written Off. If you have ever wanted the story in one place, that is where it lives. Then there are the Songs of the States — a run of tunes with a bit of geography in them. There are videos too, for anyone who would rather watch than read.
There is a bookshop, which does exactly what a bookshop should. And there is Out of the Box Advertising, sitting alongside the rest. Different doors, same household.
- Written Off — Colin's memoir
- Songs of the States — the music
- Videos — the watchable version
- The bookshop — books, plainly enough
- Out of the Box Advertising — the advertising arm
Who it suits
Wake Up Now tends to suit the person who likes to start at the beginning. The one who wants to know who is behind something before they sign up for anything. If you have heard Colin's name somewhere and wondered what the go is, this is the sensible first stop.
It also suits anyone who wants the whole network explained without having to hunt through a dozen separate sites to piece it together. One front door, one clear picture.
And it suits the quietly curious — the sort who would rather poke around at their own pace than be sold to. There is no hard sell here. Have a look, wander a bit, decide later.
How it fits the network
Every site in the BrainO family is part of the same network, and this one is the entry point. One account carries across the sites, so signing up once covers you wherever you go next. You are not starting from scratch every time you click a new link, and you are not juggling a different password for every corner of the place.
Products across the network are a dollar a month. That is the whole invite — a dollar a month to the entire system. Not a trial that quietly turns into something else. Not a teaser rate that doubles on you. A dollar a month, and nothing is auto-charged. If you want to keep going, you keep going. If you do not, you do not, and no one comes chasing.
The team reckons that is the honest way to run it. You should be able to see what you are getting before you hand anything over, and you should never be surprised by a charge you did not ask for. Wake Up Now is built on that idea, and so is everything sitting behind it.
So if you have been meaning to find out what this network is about, this is the door to knock on. It opens easily.
