Becoming a Full-Time Shaving Advocate!

Just saying accomplish one thing at a time. Trying to do to many things at once and nothing get done. IMHO.

 

Well Mark (Mantic), your cartridge discussion made Market Watch. Well done!

Very nice...great article.....I'm looking forward to your follow up article....

 

Maybe do a spot on the Today show? Hey, if Corey Greenberg had such a huge impact, why not you? You have the perfect voice for broadcasting, a laid back, calm presence that really connects with people, and an in-depth knowledge of traditional wetshaving.

 

I actually have a degree in broadcasting (but the behind-the-scenes engineering part) so I may give something like that a shot at some point.

 

Hey, the power of media cannot be discounted. I think the way the people of the World view life and current events aswell as History, is so influenced by Movies, Pop Music, Radio and Television, thats it's so very hard to differentiate the Truth and what these Medias tell them to think.

Therefore the need for media involvement by honest people who do have something; they believe in; to say, cannot be over emphasized. To put it more succinctly...there's so much BS on the radio, to hear someone like yourself would be a joy....I grew up in the 60's, and learned to shave from my Pop with Schick Injectors. But it was Corey Greenberg on the Today Show who hipped me to the fact that you could still get injector and DE blades and such. I really didn't have a clue.

I was surfing the web looking for a cheaper way to purchase Mach 3 blades when I saw an article about Corey on the Today Show. Bam!...An epiphany....I searched razors and blades and the next site was 'The Shave Den", and I saw our own 'crackstar' Jeff and 'Dridecker' Bill discussing the merits of the Ming-shi Safety razor and their conversation was so funny, I became a daily reader, and I picked up a Ming-Shi at a barber depot in Istanbul that very day. Never looked back...and it was here, with a 'sticky' that Bill put together that I discovered you.: http://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/shave-school-master-sticky.16034/

I believe, most of the shaving public is like I was....So wrapped up in there own scenes, that they really don't have a clue, that they have the options that they do. I really didn't know I could go back to shaving in a fashion that I really did enjoy so much more so...I really did think injector razors and blades were unavailable....So quite by accident my lifestyle became enriched almost instantly...Really, I mean 2 hours after reading that first article on the web, I was having my first DE shave in maybe 30 years...Whew!

Point of that story is, I have no doubt....with your sense of humour and style of getting your points across...I'm mean you are a monster communicator...and with your background in broadcasting...and your expertise of the topic...I think you could accomplish anything that you put your mind and energy behind...

 

Congratulations, Mark and enjoy your time!

 

Congratulations Mantic! Love the videos and your newsletter. Keep'em coming.

 

How true.

Or maybe so brainwashed by advertising that they believe cartridge razors are far superior to safety razors? The Trac II ads did make a lot of sense. Mantic's videos make even more sense, and are infinitely more informative. Perhaps that is why they have had such a big impact.
