Free Online Drawing Lessons

Official Launch Date

Throughout the production process, the single most important lesson that I’ve learnt is to GET ORGANIZED. That means breaking up all the nitty gritty details into specific tasks and putting a deadline on them.

Well, even though I did have an organized plan, I find it kind of hard to stick to it. As I work, I realized that the plan is not something that’s cast in stone…even though it’s very very important to have one. Does that make sense?

In other words, the plan is kind of like a guide, but we can give or take a little bit here and there to zig zag towards our goals.

The goal of the home study course is to provide the drawing techniques that’ll allow you to draw almost everything. In order to illustrate what I have to say, I have to spend hours creating the drawings for the course.

In a hurry to get my point across, I completely screwed up the first batch of drawings, and had to redraw 70% of them. Yikes!

But once I gained momentum in my drawings, I just kept going and added more and more and more…all for the goal of illustrating that the techniques would work. Check out a brand new drawing of a car:

I’ve added new illustrations for the drawing of eyes, ears, mouth, hands, and hair. And I’ve also added a drawing of an imaginary character.

To date, the home study course fills over 80 pages. And I intend to add more. Read on…

Before I went for my short break a few days ago, I wrote a blog post to all the members (that’s you) whether I should include a chapter on landscape. Those who wanted that chapter should post a comment, which counts as a “vote”.

But when I came back from the trip, I didn’t find a single comment on the blog post. So should I take that as an unimportant chapter and simply ignore the chapter?

After some consideration, I finally decided to include a chapter on landscape despite the no-show response. The reason(s)?

First, I think if there’s going to be a volume 2 on colors for the home study course, landscape would definitely be in it. So it helps to learn how to draw landscape in monochrome before moving on to colors.

Second, it’d make the home study course more complete. I promise that you’d be able to draw anything if you apply the techniques in the home study course,…and that definitely includes landscape drawing.

I initially wanted to do a soft launch for the home study course by the end of this week. Looks like that’s not going to happen if I have to include one more chapter. So you see, it’s kind of hard to follow even the most detailed plan to its death…

Now the decision to include an additional chapter will likely push back the launch of the home study course by at least a week. But at least now the home study course is starting to look really good…

I’m going to go ahead and post an official launch date to keep the momentum going. A week from now, I should be able to complete the home study course and launch it. So I’m going to fix the launch date of the home study course on:

6th Dec, 2007 (Thursday)

Mark that date on your calendar, and be prepared to receive an email from me when the home study course officially launches. That marks an important mile stone for myartpassion.com. We’re going to finally have our very first premium product!! Yippeee!

I hope you feel as excited about this as I do. I’ve worked hard on this project, hoping to deliver more value to you. And I certainly hope you’ll show your full support for this project.

Do look out for the email,…for I have a very pleasant surprise for you.

See you on launch day!

Home Study Course - Free Sample Chapter!

After over 160 hours, 100 pages and over 16k words later, I’m pleased to announce that the first premium product for myartpassion.com is close to completion.

For those of you who have just joined this site (the site has about 200 members now), it’s important for you to know why we need to have premium products on this site.

To paint a clearer picture, I’ll have to reveal bits and pieces of the plans for myartpassion.com. I treat all members as partners for this site, so I have no problems sharing my plans with everyone.

The ultimate goal is to gather enough members so that when we launch the free community site, there’s enough momentum to push the site towards greater heights.

The community site will allow you to create your own blogs, post pictures, customize your own profile pages, make friends, and do all the cool stuff that you see on community networks. And the best part is, it’s going to be free.

But there’s no point launching a community site that’ll probably be dead 6 months later. So at the heart of this site are the premium products. Don’t worry, I’ll continue to give out free resources as the site grows, but the premium products will be the main driving force that’s going to help this site to grow.

How? Well, first, let’s take at look at what I have in store for our premium products…

The first product, which is almost complete, will be named “MyArtPassion Drawing Method. Volume 1: Drawing in Monochrome”

This is an important course to have. Now I know there are members on this site who are pretty advanced but bear in mind that there are those who require more sound instruction to help them build a solid drawing foundation.

I’ve said this before and I’m going to say it again. Without a strong foundation, it’s going to be difficult for us to move forward as a community when we move on to the more advanced stuff. So this course is for them, ok?

This home study course is a 100pg course that’ll teach you the techniques to draw anything you want. I’ve focused more heavily on the tricky areas, like drawing portraits and creating moods, so that this becomes one of the most valuable home study course on the Internet.

Now, let’s take a look at what I have in store for you in the pipeline.

Premium products being planned:

1) MyArtPassion Drawing Method Volume 2: Drawing in Colors

2) Drawing with paints

3) Creating Art that sells and how to sell more Art

4) Online drawing videos (if anybody wants them)

There are more, but I try not to think too far ahead. I definitely hope this site can succeed with your continued support. But I also like to take things one step at a time and make sure that I overcome them before moving on…

So how are all these premium products going to help fuel the growth of this site? Well, from day 1, I’ve planned for myartpassion.com to have its very own affiliate program.

An affiliate program is a program that allows us to recruit partners to market our products for us. In return for their efforts, they get paid a commission.

And while we’re on the topic of money, I want to say this upfront and get it over with. Let’s face it, money makes the world go round. Without a fresh injection of funds, this site would be dead in 6 months. I’ve built enough sites to know that this will happen.

So I make it my responsibility to find all kinds of different ways to keep the site funded so that it will continue to grow…and having premium products is one of those ways. Besides, money plays another MAJOR role here.

With the affiliate program, money becomes a strong motivator for our affiliates to promote this site. Which is why our premium products are so important to the growth of myartpassion.com.

I hope I’m not getting too far ahead of myself here. Having an affiliate program is great, but I won’t be asking anyone to sell anything that I myself can’t sell. So whether we’re going to move to the next step, i.e. having an affiliate program, DEPENDS heavily on YOU.

If you need any of our premium products, and want to see this site reach its fullest potential, I certainly hope that you can give your FULLEST support to this site by taking action.

I definitely put in my fair share of work by starting this blog, keeping it active with weekly blog posts, developing the free content AND the premium products, and putting up the resources for marketing this site…then put in SOME MORE hours to perfect the products etc…

With so much going on, when I say I put in a conservative estimate of 60 hours work weeks, you know I’m not kidding. And I certainly hope you’re going to take this site as seriously as me. But we’re not done talking about money here.

I want to take this opportunity to reveal in this blog post some research that I did over the past couple of weeks, before I even started this site. If you take the time to go over the research that I did, you’ll find that most of the drawing materials out there are either too shabby, or they are too expensive.

There’s no excuse for shabby materials…you know, the kind that put up 10-15 page reports and try to sell it for $19.95. Heck, I wouldn’t pay a single cent for any shabby materials, that’s for sure.

The more expensive materials are geared towards the semi-pros and the pros. One 3 hour DVDs costing $150. These materials are obviously not for everyone. And besides, they are out of reach for many people.

The Home Study Course is meant for ANYONE who wants to learn how to draw, and you can be sure that when you follow the step by step instructions in the course, you’ll be well on your way to drawing beautiful pictures in no time. I guarantee it.

Now if you have been following my blog, you know that I’m a big fan of creating value. If you’re going to attend any drawing lessons, you’ll find yourself paying about $50 per lesson, maybe more.

But you know what, I can really prove to you that you don’t need to attend expensive drawing lessons to learn how to draw. Have you tried out the techniques given out in my free report, “The ABCs of Sketching”? If you have, you know that the techniques work.

Not only will you save boatloads of money when you invest in the home study course, you’ll also save boatloads of time. Imagine saving the hours of commuting time travelling to and fro the learning center. Plus, there’s no guarantee that the information you’re getting will be as valuable as what I have in store for you.

Armed with all the above information, how would you choose to invest your hard earned money if you want to learn how to draw?

Option A: In a shabby report that costs $19.95….nah, I don’t think that’s for you.

Option B: In a DVD 3 hour lesson that costs $150.00…wrong fit here and too costly!

Option C: Attend drawing lessons at $50.00 per lesson….doesn’t sound too cheap here, and a major waste of time commuting.

Option D: MyArtPassion Home Study Course Vol 1 at $xx amount…heee, that’s my course.

I put the value $xx there because that’s what I’m going to talk about next, and I want you to fully understand how I arrive at that pricing. Since my goal is to get them into the hands of as many people as possible, rest assured that I’ll try to keep the price as low as I can.

You know I’m not going to try something outrageous and charge you $97 for a home study course, though I firmly believe that it’s definitely worth that amount. Heck, I’m not even going to charge you $67 for it. What I’m going to try to do is to do the opposite of what my competitors are doing.

I’m going to price the home study course based on the LOWEST viable pricing point that I can go. What do I mean? Take a look at some of the products around. Some will cost as cheap as $9.95. Quality aside, I certainly don’t think that’s a viable price point for the product in the long run.

That’s because there’s a cost to promoting any product, even online. And at $9.95, the site is going to find that it’ll have a hard time getting enough resources to continue growing the site.

Without growth, you and I both know what’s going to happen. SPLAT! Dead in 6 months or less.

Now I mentioned that this site will have its own affiliate program. So I’m going to have to take the affiliate commissions into consideration. My plan is to pay out a maximum of $20 for each copy of the home study course the an affiliate sells.

An affiliate can also recruit sub-affiliates. If their sub-affiliates sell a copy, they get an additional $5. That makes a potential commission of $25 being paid to an affiliate for every copy sold.

Why $25 commission and not less? We already know that money motivates affiliates. So if they find it unprofitable to promote the products, they’re not going to do it. And down goes myartpassion.com like a rock.

So now we know the cut that our affiliates are going to get. That leaves the cut for me. When I try to sell my own products, I pretty much function like my own affiliate, except that I have to do A LOT more work.

So I figured if they’re going to get $25 for their efforts, and they get to keep all the profits, doesn’t it sound reasonable that I get the same?

But you know what. I’m not going to pay myself $25. I promised that I’ll try my best to keep the price as low as possible. I’m just going to take a $20 cut (whether at a profit or loss,…whatever). That’s it. No more than $20.

And at this stage, you know what happens to the $20 if I happen to sell anything? That’s right, it’s going to right back into growing this site…but that’s just my personal choice.

So $25 (affiliate commissions) + $20 (mycut) gives $45. I add a couple of dollars for transaction fees and refunds to make it $47. That’s what I mean by the LOWEST viable price. It’s going to be beneficial to the site in the long run, and it’s going to be affordable to most people, and the affiliates get some generous commissions. Everybody wins.

I think $47 sounds more than fair, considering the amount of content that I’ve included in the home study course. You’ll see the highlights of each chapter in the free sample chapter that I’ve included in this blog post.

This chapter is yours to keep, no matter what. There’s no obligation whatsoever to buy anything, so just download it and enjoy what I’ve put together for you.

But before I give you the link to the free chapter, I want to take up a minute of your time to help me decide on something very important.

You see, over the past week, in the course of developing the home study course, I remembered reading 3 requests for a chapter on landscape drawing. Now the home study course is close to completion, and I’ve achieved what I’d initially set out to achieve. But the chapter on landscape drawing is still not in yet.

My plan was to send out the free sample chapter by the end of this week, and release the home study course next week, but if I’m going to include the chapter on Landscape drawing, I’m going to have to delay the release date by another week, to give myself more time to work on it.

Now I really don’t mind working on the chapter that 3 people have requested but to be honest, if I’m going to put in the work to write the chapter, come up with the illustrations etc., I want to know if you guys REALLY REALLY want it. (And no, don’t worry about the price. The additional chapter won’t change anything.)

I’m going on a short getaway trip for the next few days (I really need this break),…and will be back next Tuesday, 27th Nov…which is why I’m posting this blog post today.

I certainly hope you can help me out here by voting on this blog. If you really really really want me to include the chapter on landscape drawing, just post a comment and tell me you want it.

I’ll be consolidating the responses and let you know the decision when I come back.

Here’s the free chapter: Download Free Sample Chapter (PDF)

As a final note, I sincerely hope that everyone can play a part and contribute in some way or another and push in unison towards the same direction so that myartpassion.com becomes a huge success as soon as possible.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this longggg post. Have a great weekend.

-Darren Chow

P.S. Oh one more thing. I know I initially wanted this to be a physical product where I can ship to you. But after serious consideration and weighing the pros and cons, I’ve decided to make it a digital product,…at least for now. If you’re going to print out the home study course, it’s going to be this thick:

So let’s just stick with the digital format for now. Have fun!

Putting in more work

The week is drawing to a close and I have to say, the development of the home study course is reeeaaaallllyyyy making progress.

I’ve added in the illustrations and it’s at over 65 pages now, without the workbook, and that’s just the unpolished version. I also haven’t added in the chapter on Landscape, and I’m still pondering over whether I should add it in.

You know, I had a strict timeline that I would like to stick to. And when I fell sick last week, it totally threw me off the timeline. When I recovered, I made sure that I put in the extra hours just to catch up.

But as development progresses, I realize that I have grossly underestimated the amount of work and time required to put together a home study course.

Before the project started, I put together a little plan and thought about what I wanted to include in the home study course. It came up to be about 10 chapters.

Coming up with the content and texts happen to be the easy part. But when I started working on the illustrations and examples, I spent wayyyyy too much time on them. I’d draw, be dissatisfied with some of them, and redraw again.

Each illustration could take hours to draw. I had to constantly think about what I want to highlight in the home study course and put that focus in my drawings.

When they are done, I have to scan them in, fire up my photoshop and make the edits. I then copy and paste them in my manuscript and hope they turn out fine. If not, I’ll have to re-edit again. Happened about three times so far. I combined the pics together and they didn’t look right, and I had to rearrange the images again.

Looking back at the number of hours I put in per day, I think I’d easily clock over 60 hours per week. No kidding.

After all that effort, I’m pleased to say that AT LEAST I have the first unpolished draft, complete with illustrations. I could add more, but I still have the work book to work on.

My plan was to have the polished version ready by end of this week. I have one more day before the week is finished. So technically speaking, I’m still meeting the deadlines that I’ve set for myself.

So what’s going to stop me from meeting the deadline? Well, the chapter on landscape drawing is not in yet. If I include that chapter, I’ll have to give myself one more week.

I’ll let everyone decide whether they want the chapter on landscape painting or not. I’ll email everybody within the next couple of days to find out.

Signing off,

Darren

Preview Illustrations

Finally! Some sample illustrations that I’ve uploaded.

I think from this week onwards, I’ll be posting updates on a weekly basis for a couple of reasons.

One, I think the updates are too frequent for some members. Once a week sounds just about right.

Second, I’ll have more to talk about in a single post More content, more interesting updates, stories etc for everyone.

I didn’t manage to “steal time” to get to the free report that I was going to do. That’ll have to wait for now. Meanwhile, here are some sketches to wet your appetite.

Like I said, the techniques in the home study course will allow you to draw anything you want once you’ve mastered those techniques. Check out these samples…

You’ll be able to draw portraits…here’s another one…

Recognize them? How about drawing ladies…

…or a baby…(no it’s not mine)

…or animals…

There are more, but I’ll keep them for later. Note that not all will make it to the course, they all have to pass the final quality check. If not, they remain in my sketch book.

I’ll be taking them apart and go really in depth into how to put those illustrations together step by step. You’ll see my thought processes and how I complete the illustrations from start to finish.

Finally, someone brought to my attention a set of videos on youtube. It’s a film called “The Secret”. I think there’s something within that movie that we can all use…in our art or in other areas of our lives.

Anyway, it’s for your enjoyment. Here it is:

The film starts from Part 1 and lasts about 1 1/2 hrs. So make sure you grab some popcorn!

Oh, and new members who just joined this site, feel free to browse around this blog to catch up on the latest updates. And don’t forget to say “Hi” to all the other members!

More Behind The Scenes

Before we go into the juicy stuff, I’d like to thank a few members for showing your support with your participation (esp. Marie and Lamoine). As you know, I’ve been down for a couple of days in the early part of this week and a few members have written back with kind words. Just to let you know I’ve received your kind regards.

I’m recovering fast and am feeling so much better now. The past couple of days, I’ve been able to continue working on the project. It’s now clocking over 40 pages, without illustrations. Once I’m done with the illustrations, it’s going to be about…100 pages easily I would think…maybe more.

Here are some of the highlights so far…

1) I’ve not decided on the title of the book, but I think that the book is heading towards the direction of being a home study course. There’ll be study materials, and a workbook to go along.

2) Chapters 4 and 5 look set to be the “meat” of the course. Chapter 4 is about how to create exciting and interesting drawings. No one likes “dead” looking drawings, so this is going to be an important chapter. Chapter 5 is about creating moods and atmosphere. I’ve paid special attention to this chapter and expanded on it.

You’re going to learn about the many different types of moods that we can create (a total of 9 so far on my list). And of course you’ll also learn the techniques to create these moods. You’ll see how many different variables can combine to create different moods.

3) Chapter 7 sets out to share how to draw hands and faces, as those are the tricky parts of a face. But as I work on this chapter, it appears that it wouldn’t be complete without at least some mention of all the other facial parts. So in this chapter, you’ll learn how to draw eyes, noses, lips, chins, ears, and finally see how a portrait forms when we put it altogether.

4) The special project looks set to be an interesting exercise, with a short story, followed by a drawing exercise.

5) I’ve taken out the drawing of Graffiti, as I’m not sure if there’s much demand for this topic. If you want it, just HOLLER by leaving a comment at the end of this post and I’ll think about including it.

6) But I’m thinking of adding a chapter on how to draw skies and landscapes, as it does seem like an important topic.

The information and illustrations given in all the chapters will be more than adequate to get you started on drawing almost ANYTHING. At the end of the course, you’ll be able to draw portraits, furry animals, buildings, landscapes, or whatever you choose to draw.

Not only will you master the techniques of drawing, the course also contains information on how to make lots of nitty gritty decisions when drawing. It’s truly a course about the “Art” of Drawing.

I remember watching a video called the Art of Drawing or something like that. But it has NOTHING on the Art of drawing. You get to learn how to draw a vase or a statue pretty well though. Much like what most people do in art school. It’s more the Science of Drawing if you ask me.

Anyway, I seem set to be able to start working on the illustrations next week. I’ll be able to upload some images as a sneak preview then.

Also, I hope to be able to steal some time over the weekend to work on a free gift that I think you’ll like. It’s going to be a PDF download. But no promises.

Look out for it in your email!

Production notes

I practically have to drag myself to the computer to write this post. The reason? I’ve been down for the past 3 days with a bad viral infection. The medication kind of makes me drowsy, and unable to think straight. So if you spot any errors in this post, you have to excuse me.

I figured it’ll be good to post production notes to keep all members (that’s you) updated on the progress of the project. So here is the first post.

I was already building momentum on the project with lots of ideas filling in as content for the different chapters of the book. I took all your comments into consideration when doing my writing.

Then on Sunday, without warning, I started feeling tired all over. And for the past 3 days, I’ve been carrying this viral infection that’s giving me aching muscles all over. I hope it goes away soon.

To be honest, it’s a little bit frustrating. Lesson learnt here? Once you build up momentum, keep going! Don’t let anything stop you. I realize that it’s going to take me some time to recover and work on the project whole heartedly again.

Nevertheless, in the brief moments that I feel I have a little energy, I tried to sneak in some stuff into my manuscript. Nothing too fancy, just important notes and points here and there to make sure that I can expand on them later.

I try not to do too much while I’m recovering so as not to affect the quality of the product. Only bits and pieces here and there. Nothing more. I expect to recover in a couple of days, and then, only then, will I be able to fully focus on the job at hand.

Despite this temporary disruption, I’m actually quite happy with how the book is turning out. The ideas and content are carefully picked so that they wouldn’t bore you. Also, it’s not going to be something that you learn in an ordinary art school. School lessons never explain to you why your painting turns out the way it did.

I actually expect to finish up the book by the end of this week. From the look of things, I’m afraid I’ll have to postpone stuff to next week. Meanwhile, you’ll continue to get regular updates from me.

Also, the free review copy spots have been fully filled up. The member base has grown to about 130 members from my latest report. Given the small member size, I’m happy with the response.

I also understand that there are members looking for color techniques, such as acrylic, watercolor or oil painting techniques. Rest assured that I’ll put up relevant content as soon as I can regarding these topics.

Meanwhile, those who stayed on the list, I strongly urge you to be patient. Do join in as and when you can and participate in the discussion. It’s not just me who’s on this site. Over time, I hope that you can get to know all the other members as well.

So if you don’t participate, you don’t make friends!

Alright, before this turns out to be a ramble, I’m going to sign off and rest. Hopefully, I’ll recover soon enough to work full force on the project again.

See you around!

Energizing the project

Hi everyone,

It’s 2.45am over here and I just want to write to let everyone know how valuable your participation is to this project.

Ideas are coming to me faster than anything, and the more I write, the more ideas come up and the more areas I want to cover.

In fact, I’m a little worried that I’m trying to cover too much ground. You know what it takes to put together a project like this together…come up with the overview, work on it a little, sit on it, then come back to it again, filling in the details, sit on it again, then come back to it again, and the process repeats itself…

I just want to wrap this week up by letting you know that every little comment, every email helps to energize the project. They give me encouragement and motivation. At the end of the project, there’ll be a little part of you in there, and that’s the way I want it to be.

Have a great weekend!

Table of Contents for New Book

Hi everyone!

I’ve received a number of responses requesting for a free copy of our first premium product, and I want to thank you for participating. I’ll be contacting you soon to ask for a few pieces of information, and once it’s completed, I’ll be shipping a copy to you.

That’s right, it’s a physical product. I’ll print out a complete copy and ship a copy to you, and I’ll even pay for the shipping cost. All I ask is an honest and sincere review from you, and your willingness to be friends with me

But even though this is a free product (at least for now), I want to address a valid concern here before I proceed further. First, why should you read anything written by me? A valid question, and I want to address that in this post.

I’m not a professional artist, and I draw mainly for leisure and all the other non-tangible benefits that come with it. Drawing is a part of me. Nobody taught me how to draw, and I just kept drawing and drawing and drawing…

Now even though I may not be the best artist in the world with an impeccable track record, I am however, more than able to put together a book jam-packed with valuable, valuable information.

While we’re talking about value, let me share a little story with you…

Some months ago, I opened a bank account with a local bank. It came attached with a free service that sends an automated email alert every week, letting me know my account balance. It’s free anyway for the first 3 months. After that, a charge of $20 applies per month.

So I thought, “Ok, since it’s free for now, let’s take it and see what happens. I can always cancel it 3 months later.” BIG MISTAKE.

I soon learned that I have no need for such a service. Before I knew it, the 3 months were up, and I received my first receipt, saying that 20 bucks have been deducted from my account for this eAlert service.

There was no warning, nothing. It’s easy to forget that such a service exists. The bank knows this. It’s banking that I won’t do anything about it. But I didn’t really need the service. I can always check my bank balance anytime I want via the Internet. So I called them up to find out how I can cancel it.

As it turns out, they made the termination process a biggggg hassle. I have to write out a termination letter and bring it in physically to one of the branches. I did that and when I got to the branch, I had to join the queue and waited another 45mins for my turn.

Why the big hassle for terminating a small subscription service? It all comes down to this…is the service really a valuable service to the customer? At least for me, it really isn’t. 20 bucks just for an email with a couple of lines in it, with information I don’t really need…well, no thanks.

Why am I telling you this story?

You see, even big big corporations screw up on creating value for customers. They try to do the minimal, and then attempt to “lock” the customer with some funny contract terms, or in this case, hope that the client conveniently forgets. Here’s a word of advice for you: DON’T GIVE THEM THE CHANCE TO RIP YOU OFF.

Here’s another example of information with value. Let’s talk about something that’s closer to everyone: Art. I know that many customers are complaining about their art supplies arriving in broken pieces.

Sometimes, this is not the retailer’s fault. The nature of certain art supplies, like oil pastels, are soft and they break easily. There could be other stuff, like poor handling, that could be affecting the quality of the shipped package, and the poor retailer has no control over this.

So I went to do a little bit of research, and every major manufacturer boasts of making between US2.5 to 5mil in annual turnover just selling art supplies. Let’s assume here that a retailer does a mere US 1 mil selling and shipping oil pastels.

If I am a retailer, you know what I’d do? I’ll put up the message, “Stringent quality checks for oil pastels. No broken sticks!” right smack at the top of the page selling oil pastels. And really work with the manufacturers to deliver that promise.

Guess what, it’s inevitable that sales for oil pastels will increase for that retailer. By how much? A 5% increase means an additional $50k increase in annual turnover. Just by adding an additional guarantee.

Now what if the annual sales for oil pastels is $5mil? 5% increase will mean $250k. Now this information is only going to be valuable to the retailer if they do something about it. By the way, I don’t see any retailer doing that, and going the extra mile for the customer.

The whole point of this example is that if I’m going to spend time dishing out premium products, you will be guaranteed to receive only valuable, valuable information. Period.

Ok, that brings us back to our premium products. I dont’ want to turn this post into a rant. I think you get my point.
