The Upton Report Vol.200 – I Got 99 Problems and this Report Ain’t One!

200!!!  I’ve been watching the count go up thinking 200 sounded like a monumental feat!  From some humble beginnings to now, the report has morphed and changed since the first issue in 2010.

Originally The Upton Report was just a collection of cool videos I would find on YouTube with an emphasis on entertainment, not sales.  Remember, back in 2010 when we started The Upton Report, YouTube wasn’t even 5 years old and there weren’t any YouTube “celebrities” yet…we had done a few videos our self, with our first YouTube video uploaded on Mar 5, 2009 (and now with over 135 public videos!) but we were just scratching the surface of what we’ve developed it into today.  From “ghost” writers to format changes( 2 or 3 times)…it’s really been a natural evolution to today, and I look forward to seeing how it morphs over the next 200 issues!
