One place to start
Every network needs a front door, and for BrainO that door is Wake Up Now. It's where Colin puts himself on the line — the stories, the songs, the videos and the shop, all in one spot. If you've heard about the network and wondered where to begin, this is the honest answer.
What a visitor gets
Wake Up Now gathers the things Colin has made and the things he's building. There's Written Off, his memoir. There's the Songs of the States. There are the videos, for people who'd rather watch than read. There's the bookshop, for those who like something to hold. And there's Out of the Box Advertising, sitting alongside it all.
It's a mixed bag on purpose. Some visitors arrive for the book, some for the music, some for the videos, and some just want to see what the bloke is on about. All of it lives here.
The dollar-a-month invite
The heart of the offer is simple: a dollar a month for the whole system. That's the invite across the BrainO family, and Wake Up Now is where a lot of people first take it up. No lock-in tricks, no surprise charges on the card — nothing is auto-charged. A dollar a month, and you're in.
One account, the whole family
Here's the part that makes the network work. Sign up once and one account carries across the sites. You don't need a new login for every corner of the place, and you don't need to remember which password belongs where. Wake Up Now is the front door, but the key opens the lot.
Who it suits
- Readers who want a memoir with some grit to it.
- Music fans curious about the Songs of the States.
- People who prefer videos to pages.
- Anyone who wants to see what the network is about before going further.
- Small operators who want a look at Out of the Box Advertising.
If you're the sort who likes to start at the beginning and meet the person behind the thing, this is your page. If you'd rather wander straight into the wider network, that's fine too — the account travels with you either way.
How it fits the family
BrainO is a family of sites, each with its own patch. Wake Up Now is the one that introduces the person at the centre of it. From here, the rest of the network makes a bit more sense: the same account, the same dollar-a-month arrangement, the same plain dealing. The team keeps it that way on purpose — one door in, then room to move.
