I was recently reading, in the NY Times, about a small business owner- Ed Davis. He wanted to change the direction his California based manufacturing company, Ceilume was heading. He had started it out as a custom job shop and wanted to put his energies into becoming a maker of vinyl ceiling tiles. His plan was to begin selling directly to consumers. He also wanted to change how people thought about ceiling tiles. He wanted to show how vinyl ones were much different.

So how do you go about changing a market’s perception ?

He decided to try online video.

So for several years, his company has been producing videos. The best known place to put videos is on YouTube – with these videos embedded in the company Web Site, customers, by the droves, have been able to search for them on the Web.  They have created videos of their products and have created step-by-step how-to instructions. This has turned into a very low cost form of advertising.

Online video has become the number one option for many businesses.  Many small and medium businesses, 10 years or so ago, had first created a competitive edge by putting up a Website that would introduce prospective customers to their products and services. Many could not afford the cost prohibitive advertising that big businesses did and this gave them a way to attract customers and talk directly to them on a large scale.

So what is the next step in the evolution of low cost, online advertising?

Many have come to realize that, although YouTube is well known, it is not the best place to put your videos. Have you ever gone there to look at a video? Just to the right of any video you have on there….is a whole line of videos from your competitors! I don’t mean just competitors in the sense that they sell the same thing. Often it is your competitors from the standpoint of time and attention.

For example:  I once was directed, by a motivational speaker, to check out her video on YouTube. I went there….her video popped up on cue, but…….before it started playing, my eye was grabbed by the video in the column next to her video. In this thumbnail of a video was a woman- scantily dressed in a bright Santa outfit!  I don’t remember exactly what the title said, but it was something like Naughty Santa…blah, blah, blah.  Now, as hard as I tried, and I tried real hard, my eye kept stealing over to that Santa thumbnail. That poor motivational speaker had no chance!

Did you also know that if you put your videos on YouTube, that they are no longer yours?  They become the property of YouTube and they can put them wherever they want and do with them what they want.

So, if it isn’t YouTube, then where?

Many businesses are coming to the realization that the best choice for them, is to create a “video channel” that is all theirs. When people come looking for them and land on their videos- that is all  they will see. Just your video content on your own video channel. No competition from anyone else!

So what should I have on my video channel?

The first thing a business/individual has to do is to sell itself. Don’t come across “salesy” or make it obvious that you are trying to push a product. Offer something of value that your prospective customers can use or learn about that will move them along in your  selling process.

Several ways to do this are:

• Give them information on how to do something. Whether it is putting up ceilings themselves or how to make a birdhouse- it doesn’t matter. Create videos that demonstrate this. Find something that goes along with what you do, or sell, and give them some information. Educate them.

• Show them the products that will help them get the results they want. If you have shown them the “how”, it is time to show them the “what”.  What type of products do they need?  Obviously, it is your product they need. If you can make it easy for them, through the use of video, to know what the product looks like- they will have very little resistance to using yours. Most people want to keep things simple, if possible.

According to Mr. Davis, more Ceilume customers place orders without requesting samples because video helps them find what they want.  At Ceilume, video helps customers choose among 30 different styles of ceiling tiles. Ceilume, a 40-person company that has about $5 million a year in sales, produces its “Ask the Ceiling Tile Guy” videos for little expense with internal tech staff and Mr. Davis as narrator. The videos have attracted more than 500,000 views, and Mr. Davis says he believes that video has been a crucial factor in increasing sales 15 percent a year.
*Figures stated in the NY Times

• Have your customers send you videos and display these on your video channel. They can be videos of your customers using the product…or even more powerful, videos of your customers telling about the products in the form of testimonials !

If you can create an atmosphere that your video channel is a place to come for information and solutions, it will attract viewers who will be much more likely to buy from you. Your conversion rate will go up considerably.

And that…is the name of the game.

Attract, Convert and Retain.

If you have been using video branding (and who isn’t?), to set yourself apart from the crowd- then you probably have noticed, when you post to your FaceBook page, that not all your friends and fans are seeing them.

I think you’ll all agree that we have worked too hard to acquire our friends and fans to be leaving them unaware of our offerings.

FaceBook friends have been circulating a tip that I thought would be a benefit to all of you:

Have you noticed that you are only seeing Facebook updates in your news feed from the same people lately? Have you also noticed that when you post things like status messages, photos and links, the same circle of people are commenting and everyone else seems to be ignoring you?

Don’t worry, everyone still loves you and nobody has intentionally blocked you. The problem is that a large chunk of your friend list can’t see anything you post and here’s why:

The “New Facebook” has a news feed setting that by default is automatically set to show ONLY posts from people who you’ve recently interacted with or interacted the most with (which would be limited to the couple of weeks just before people started switching to the new profile). So in other words, unless your friends commented on one of your posts within those few weeks or vice versa – you are now invisible to them and they are invisible to you!!

HERE’S THE FIX: On the homepage click the “Most Recent” title on the right of the Facebook Newsfeed, then click on the drop down arrow beside it and select “Edit Options”, click on “Show Posts From” and change the setting to “All Of Your Friends and Pages” (you can also access the “Edit Options” link at the very bottom of the facebook homepage on the right)

The good news is: now you can now view all of your friends and fans again. The bad news is: YOU ARE STILL INVISIBLE to a large portion of your list. You must get the word out to ALL of your friends and fans they can read the post and adjust their settings.

You can put this message on your Facebook  page by sharing it here with the Share button below, tweet about it here, bookmark this  blog post or send out an email (a video hopefully) in hopes of reaching them all.

If you haven’t made the leap to video branding yet, and know it is time, you can check out the tools that we are currently using by attending a Live Video Broadcast that showcases the video branding tools.  Contact Us.

I hope this helps keep you in touch with all your friends and fans.

I live in small town Minnesota about an hour west of Minneapolis with my wife of about 29 years, Karla. We are empty nesters now, but have 3 children and 4 grandchildren so far, all close to home which we really like.   I have been a construction worker most of my life, started on a concrete crew at 15 years old. At 30 I went on my own as a cement contractor and expanded into general contracting which I’ve been doing for 22 years. I’m also a partner with my daughter in a bubbling boulder business. I have a very strong work ethic and I still think it’s OK to work for a living and earn my money.

I give you this background just to let you know where I come from. Up until a few months ago I had no idea how to type or use a computer. I just never wanted to learn how because I was too busy to try to add one more thing to my plate. The reason I decided to learn started almost 20 years ago. My wife and I were involved in a couple of network marketing companies. The first one we worked really hard at for a couple years using the traditional method of marketing at the time. You know the one: making the list of friends, family, and everyone else you don’t know. We worked hard , even to the point where we could start to actually make some money, just to watch it all crumble away. What is duplication anyway? A short time later a new one came along. It was when phone calling cards first came out. This was going to be it! A brand new product! How could you go wrong? We actually built a fairly good organization in about a year. Then we got the news they were out of business,sorry, see ya later.

Now its many years later and I’m still working my butt off, when along comes some guy with a “business proposition”. Well I’m old, but I’m not dead, “yeah I’ll look”.  It’s a network marketing business. Now, I’ve always liked the concept of network marketing, but didn’t like the traditional method of building the business. So I started doing some homework and came across information on using the internet to build several types of online businesses using different marketing strategies.   I can tell you it wasn’t that easy changing from a construction worker to a computer nerd!  It took me a while, but I did it.

If you’re involved in internet marketing today, you know that video marketing is the up and coming trend. I’m OK with that because I’d rather talk than type anyway.

Now here we are with a great business opportunity using different video products called MyVideoTalk.  It’s just starting up in the U.S. and Canada, but has been established overseas since 2002. Which means they’ve had a chance to iron out some of the bugs.   Right now we’re at the point of being within the first few hundred people involved in North America.

Not only do you have good timing with a great product, but you have a great team of people to work with who want you to be very successful.   Becky Joubert is one of the team leaders who was my coach, helping me get started with internet marketing. She has been teaching and coaching people for a quite a while on how to set up and grow your internet business.

Between Adrian Schleis the team leader, Becky, and other team members, we will do everything we can to support and provide the training you need to build a huge and prosperous internet based network marketing business.
Don’t worry if you don’t have much experience with computers or the internet. I didn’t either. If you’re willing to learn and work at it, (there’s that four letter word again) we can teach you and help you.

And —as a special bonus, when you join my team, I will give you sixty days of free Traffic Geyser!
Traffic Geyser is an article and video submission tool used for your content to spread your brand to many social networking sites at once.

So check out MyVideoTalk, it’s a great opportunity. We’ll be here to help you get started and help you along the way with whatever you need.

I was raised in the mid-west, the son of a steelworker, so I understand working hard to get what you want. I am also a father of two and have dedicated myself to being a role model for working smarter, not harder, to reach your goals.  I have utilized MLM as a tool to fuel that philosophy. Done the right way, it can be a powerful tool.

When a business partner approached me in May 2010, and asked me to help him open the U.S. and Canadian markets, I was intrigued.I saw what amounts to a “perfect storm” in the positioning of the company. Here was a company, although new to the U.S., had already established itself. Having been founded in 2002, MyVideoTalk had already created a strong track record in South-east Asia and Europe. It is now establishing itself in South and Central America as well.

The intriguing part is that it in an Internet-based company that specializes in helping companies brand themselves through the use of video.  As most of us know, there is a huge move from traditional advertising to the Internet. Not only are large established companies coming on board with this type of branding, but it levels the playing field for small to medium size business that have the savvy to get out in front of a mass audience on a small budget.

Through the use of video email, live or archived video broadcasts, a video channel that is dedicated and promotes just you (and is not clogged up with everyone else’s distracting videos), pay per view video,  web trainings and meetings, you’ll have the tools to help your clients realize that you are the only option.

What makes this even more attractive is that you can prosper from the distributing of this cutting edge technology. One of the things that everyone should look for, when deciding to distribute any product, is whether it is cutting edge… or whether it is entering a market that is already full of companies with that product. Think about it, would you rather have owned a cell phone store when you would have been the only one in town with a store… or would you rather jump into the market now that there is a store on every corner?

The compensation plan is set up for you to make money now. This makes a tremendous difference!  I remember the first company I was ever with…my first check was $2.53! I was thrilled! It didn’t matter that the check was puny- it just confirmed that the system worked. My first month with MyVideoTalk was far greater than that check (call me and I’ll tell you how much more). What I learned along the way was to be much more discerning in what I became involved with. And of course, I learned many more lessons to escalate earning potential in your first weeks and months. That, my friend, is what I will teach you… my team and I.

Having been fortunate enough to have been enrolled by the person who is responsible for opening the U.S. market, I have a pipeline to up-close and personal top-notch training. (And can put you in touch as well!) It is the short-cut to spending years trying to figure it out on your own. The process has been distilled down to what works. Does that mean you have to work? Absolutely! But if you do, if you have the vision to commit and be trainable, you too can be sitting in the front of the room with the “big guys”.

Whether you are an “old school” marketer or want to reach out globally through the Internet (that’s what I do), we have the knowledge and the training to get you to where you want to go. If you want proof, I will show you how I succeeded in being #1 on Google for a very common key word. As a member of my team, you will prosper from my knowledge (and of course, our team’s knowledge).

Now for the simple part, the part that commits you to nothing more than getting more information: If you will contact me, I will put you onto a Live Video Broadcast! ….no strings attached, no capturing your e-mail address and pummeling you into submission with e-mail after e-mail (you see, I have found out that if someone watches the Live Video Broadcast, and doesn’t have the “vision”, I will spend far too much time convincing them about it and very little time training those who want to change their lives, or create their “Plan B”…those who want to leave a legacy for their families). I just want to work with the willing.

So contact me, I’ll make sure I get you on the Live Video Broadcast and then I will leave you alone to enjoy it in the privacy of your own home or business. No talking in your ear while you’re watching- no high pressure.  Whether it benefits you as a branding tool or as a fantastic business opportunity, only you can decide. You know yourself much better than I do. Just click on my e-mail address or call me, and I’ll get you onto a Live Broadcast that will demonstrate both the tools and the opportunity.

MyVideoTalk is an Internet-focused company, using state of the art software to produce HD quality video products from your ordinary web cam. MyVideoTalk was founded in 2002, and although it’s new to North America, it has been extremely successful overseas in Europe and Asia, Australia, & New Zealand, and now expanding to South America.

This kind of growth occurs when you create products that stay ahead of the trends, rather than trying to jump on board with a company that is following a trend that has already peaked. If you want to promote yourself and your business…any business…whether it is internet based or not, you’ll need a way to grab the attention of your prospects, and do it better than your competition.

So, When you communicate with your market by video; in video emails, live video broadcasts, live or recorded web shows that can include pay per view, web meetings and trainings, or your own video channel, your prospects are totally engaged in what you offer…and who you are.  You’ve just branded yourself and your business!

So, now you’ve got cutting edge video products, and as for the opportunity, the compensation plan is designed so that you can begin to earn good money immediately…..not just down the road.  Again, with 9 different ways to earn, it’s a very generous and lucrative plan!

So, we’ve talked about the importance of products that lead the trends; a solid, privately held and debt free company to back you that’s successfully made it thru that period where many new companies falter; and an opportunity that’s proven to create fortunes for those that really want it…

All that’s left to talk about is what’s in place to support your goals…and this is where many individuals fail to reach their chosen level of success…they don’t have the proper amount of support and training that they need.

Our team has put in place a supportive group of people that are here to make sure you are directed, supported, trained, and guided to where you want to be.  The only thing that will stop you….is you!

No more worries about unsupportive uplines, or lack of training.  The tools are designed to be as simple as possible so that any one at any level can use them to create that personal branding for any business.

Should you feel you need it, myself and my team have the resources to help you with SEO, or search engine optimization skills, in order to market MyVideoTalk online, or recruiting techniques if you prefer to use your “offline” social skills to go out and hand pick your organization.

Old school marketing, or new school Attraction Marketing…it doesn’t matter…I’m here to help you build your future the way that works best for you and, as an Internet Marketing coach whose built organizations both ways,  I’ll help you get there.

All you need to do is contact me so that I can invite you to a Live Video Broadcast, that you can view in the privacy of your home, so that you can learn more about the opportunity, the company, and the products that you’ll be benefiting from.

Once you decide you’re ready to join me and my team, I’ll set you up to build your future in the manner in which you choose, using marketing skills that fit your technical skill level.
