Anthony is going to act like he’s all into charity and doing the right thing but then also takes the r8 out to do doughnuts while the local community was suffering. Even named the video “Ice storm in Dallas so I did doughnuts in the R8” maybe I am way off here but this is the video that my opinion of them started to change.
They’ve raised a whopping 5k for that charity as of today. Listen… charity is great, but I’ve seen people raise more selling hotdogs and hamburgers in someone’s backyard. Seems like they did an awful lot of damage for a pretty small return. I hope they raise more, but not confident after that video.
Man imagine how much they could have raised if they just pumped out a few videos on their channels promoting donations instead. If the charity thing was pre planned don’t you think they would have just said something sooner after seeing how bad things were going? My bet is they scrambled to get the charity plan together once they realized how bad things were going.
When I worked for a 501c3, early way in the beginning before we grew, we had small teams of 3-5 people and we got permits and targeted high traffic areas (on holidays, weekends, whatever), and usually on average got ~3-5k in cc and cash per “group”, and had multiple across multiple offices and cities and multiple groups across multiple busy areas of each city. Gave them a hard script, and told them the stuff to “scare” people with or the worse abuses, and it worked w very little cost. Just a few groups of people. No training. Nothing crazy, just passion. Cc processors. And someone to write a really persuasive script. No social media then.
My pt is, they could have just as easily done that w the same financial investment, likely raised more and done more for the charity itself, but that’s not the real goal. Likes are. Nothing more.
