Dear Abbi,

I am thinking of starting a small business.  For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to make infomercials.  I own a camera, and I know some people in the business, How I can get in touch with some of the inventors of these products.  Anything you could offer I would really appreciate.

Thanks!

Dear Shamsandballs,

That’s awesome that you have figured out what you want to do with your life!  Congrats!  But, if I were you I’d keep your day job as you pursue this goal.  Jumping blindly into the fantastical world of infomercials can be daunting and intimidating, so beware.  A lo of people don’t know this about me, but I was actually in an infomercial in 1993 featuring an exclusive nail care product created specifically for 7 year olds looking to go into manicure/pedicure careers.  It was fiercely competitive and I found myself in a deep depression after the nail care 20-year career plan portfolio enhancer shoot.  I don’t know much about you, and for all I know you could be cut out for this line of work.  But I do know that it’s intense, it’s manic, and it’s physical, so make sure your heads on right before you dive deep into the world of infomercials.

Best of luck!

Abbi
