Hi on your video about pinterest trademark claim after you filed your claim what did they ask you to do. Like after you submitted the form. Did they ask you to send them an email or they just gave you the username?
@LeanMedia
@LeanMedia 5 дней назад
They sent me a confirmation a few days later that I was granted the username. I responded to this email: "Complete the form with as much information supporting your claim as possible. Specifically, we will need you to provide some proof that the username is relevant to rights you hold in a trademark being used to identify your goods and/or services (like a trademark registration number, or something that establishes your use of the mark in commerce). Please also provide us with the username of an existing account that you want associated with the username. You’re welcome to include any other specifics or relevant links about your request in the "Details" section of the form. "

I opened my account two weeks ago. Set everything thing up, payments, campaign etc. I did not even start the campaign and got suspended for Egregious violation. Got the suspension removed. Got the account verified and was suspended for Egregious violation. I sent another appeal and i received an email this morning that the suspension was upheld. Very frustrating going back and forth and i have yet to run a live ad

Is there a white male Republican stupid enough to take this survey to voluntarily remove themselves from ALL recommended lists. This is nothing but woke bullshit that does NOTHING. If channels are good, they will get subs. They don't need the company pushing them based on their color (which is racist.) If people don't want to watch one of the thousands of lazy black reaction channels, for whatever reason, they are not going to start watching any just because RU-vid is shoving it down their throats.

What if I am a professional narrator with a four year degree in broadcasting and journalism??? Have you uploaded any youtube videos recently for those of us who fit the mold for publishing Audibles in both the narration, writing, and editing categories? I don't need any outside contractors but I am interested in self-narrating select classic works possibly with my own commentary or introduction. I would love to see something recent for 2024 that takes ai tools into account. I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about! 😉 I don't see an Audibles category in your playlists. @leanmedia

Ian, thank you for saving me, and I assume many others, from wasting time on this. My father always said (sarcasticly) "If I ever found a way to make a fortune, the first thing I would do is go out and teach a bunch of other people how to do it, and create lots of competition." The MAKE MONEY niche is based on this faulty idea.

Amazon is cancelling a lot of products. I worked with a third party to create a product. After selling over 300 of my inventory and over 6 months later, they wanted me to pay a company $1000 to do testing when my 3rd party had already done it. Because I did not use one of their companies, they sent ALL my inventory back to me. Before I send more money to them, I decided to donate and sell on my own through my own website. I spent so much money on advertising through Amazon and could not believe they would do this to me!

"inclusion" is another word for "exclusion". Google started it's social engineering experiment over 20 years ago and it's now a global war. You'll be snuffed out if you're a Christian, have conservative views, have patriotic views, want to save your country from invasions, etc. Google AI-harvests everything you do online now. They're embedded in almost every web site through every backdoor possible, but usually up front. Did you recognize the sudden "Log in using your google account" pop-up window on most websites now? That's google taking over the internet finally, as in actually taking it over. Their agenda is so obvious and blatant, and the most racist act any organization on this planet has EVER carried out successfully.
