Video Sample

This is of course, a sample of a video post. I believe this is the most powerful form of posting. Why are television and movies so expensive? They are moving pictures that "tell a story"! If you include this medium in your mix to effectively tell your story, I am sure you will be surprised with the results.

Everything you need is in this great package that I am offering. Again, it is time for you to quit renting space in your advertising and take control of your own with blogging!

There may come a time when you outgrow this, but if that comes true for you I will have effectively done my job.

This is probably the bread and butter of blogging. It is so simple and effective to do! Here is where you as the expert in your industry start to convey to your audience all the information that you want them to know and where your credibility really grows.

I will teach you how to log in to your own account to create a post such as this. This aspect does not require anything else from me once you have completed the instruction of how to use this posting feature. It takes about 15-30 minutes to learn.

This sample is an actual service that you can use a phone (cell or landline ) to create an audio post. It requires a simple free account and is part of the package that I will teach you!

The quality is not suberb, but you will get the idea and it is fantastic for posting on the go!

Podcasting: the marketing tool that proves your expertise...

Now that I have my mobile tech blog well under way, I can now pick up on this blog and focus on using the web and digital technology in a marketing capacity.As I mentioned in the introductory post, Blogging allows a small business the opportunity to use a great new marketing vehicle; Podcasting.

Podcasting is a recorded piece of media. This format started out as audio but since both it's popularity and the accompanying bandwidth have grown, podcasters are turning to video to create their media message as well. The great thing about podcasting is that if you are the first one to use it in your geographic area, you can separate yourself from your competion by giving industry "tips" in your podcast. For example, if you are a carpenter who specializes in remodeling, you can talk about things that can make a weekend do it yourselfer more successful. If you are willing to share some insider secrets on some of the smaller jobs that don't amount to much profit anyway, you will be remembered when that do it yourselfer knows he or she is in over their head. It will be you they call to hire for the big job. Because you are giving free advice, this also means when it comes to being hired for a job, you won't have to give a hefty discount to get the job. You have already proven your value by the advice taken and used by the prospect that got you to this point of getting hired. If the tips aren't any good, you won't get any calls, so they have to have some value to the listener.

So, how do you create a podcast? Hire someone like me (since I've given you this great tip for promoting your small business). I can teach you how to do it or set up a residual fee to come to your business and set up the gear to record it for you.
