			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At present, as scores of firms and moguls are looking towards internet video sites as a good place to circulate content to draw their potential viewers, it is important to distinguish the basic benefits of using web video promotion portals.</p>
<p>Here are one or two essential bits and pieces you have to comprehend before you begin to post corporate videos on internet video channels.</p>
<p>At all times strive to use corporate videos that provide value added information to your customers &#8211; Several business people misguidedly presume you can basically put any type of advertisement on a video website, but nothing could be any further from the truth. Each video ought to deliver some meaningful material to the desired market, or start topic of discussion.</p>
<p>Do some degree of market research on the video websites prior to you adding your very 1st video &#8211; it is a superb idea to allot some considerable time putting your market&#8217;s important keywords into Yahoo, to learn what other promotional videos are at this time available. Next scribble down the profile names of the most key businesses in your area. Perhaps later down the line you can partake in a joint venture or even have some sort of relationship with these firms.</p>
<p>It is important to keep in mind that each &#038; every video site has a society built into it &#8211; Therefore you should value the other members and it&#8217;s recommended that you post positive remarks about your competitors&#8217; videos. For the most part you need to be a member of the society, supplying advice, ideas etc. And only then should you deem yourself as being a video marketer &#038; begin to advertise your own 1 &#038; firm.</p>
<p>Commit yourself to creating several promotional videos &#8211; You should have a clear strategy for creating and distributing quite a lot of promotional videos. Otherwise, your video businesses page on the video websites will give the idea of being bare if it only has one video on it. As a result, provide extra time setting up the making of a series of short format videos, rather than only one significantly long video.</p>
<p>Internet video marketing is one of the best and fastest methods of advertising your business at the moment. Vidify&#8217;s <a href="http://www.vidify.co.uk/video_publishing_and_distribution.php">online video distribution</a> partnerships guarantee that your professional videos create the awareness and impact you are looking for.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A newcomer to the world of investments in the notion of &#8220;<a href="http://www.BryanEllis.com">Virtual Real Estate Investing</a>&#8220;.  Everything from using the internet as an avenue to make more money in real estate to online games such as SecondLife seem to be included in the popular definition of this term.  </p>
<p>  In order to figure out the truth of the matter, I sought out <a href="http://bryanellis.blip.tv/">Bryan Ellis</a>, whose experience in the fledgling industry is truly impressive.  </p>
<p>  &#8220;I began using the term &#8216;virtual real estate investing&#8217; in the late 1990&#8217;s when I realized the clear similiarities in profit strategies, regardless of whether the &#8220;real estate&#8221; is &#8220;virtual&#8221; or &#8220;physical&#8221; said Ellis.  </p>
<p>  One example of the parallels between virtual and physical real estate Bryan Ellis cites is the similarity between the monetization of domain names versus physical property.  He points out that control of a domain name or even a specific web page is much like controlling a real estate property &#8221; those assets can be monetized in similar ways:  By selling them for a profit, by leasing them, by offering advertising, etc.  </p>
<p>  The similarities really are obvious.  After all, if you own a valuable piece of real estate, it&#8217;s &#8220;valuable&#8221; because other people are interested in that specific piece of property.  Likewise, if you own a desirable domain name, others will find value in it because it serves their purposes.  In either case, you could sell or lease the asset and turn it into cash.  </p>
<p>  In our next installment of this series on virtual <a href="http://www.FreeRealEstateTraining.com">real estate investing.</a>, Bryan Ellis will share the internet analogies to the physical concept of real estate development.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The bright old Chinese motto has a strong denotation; the statement portrayed the truth that we all trust an occasion considerably more if it is watched. By means of video production or videography it&#8217;s realistic to capture a chain of events.</p>
<p>These days in lots of company presentations, video footage is widely utilised. By using video production services it is possible to deliver the necessary message to a number of consumers to help please them. Online Video production at present is employed for countless different reasons; however, a number of promotional videos and brand related presentations are usually created in order to attain certain business objectives. Vidify is a <a href="http://www.vidify.co.uk/video_production_services.php">video production company</a> that specialise in creating short format online video commercials for local independent neighbourhood businesses.</p>
<p>Audio video productions are in vogue and thus are used in nearly any form of company activity. Video production companies initially interact with a certain kind of client or a corporation that are wanting to produce a short format online video, a presentation or a collection of video clips. The full job of video production is regularly carried out by freelancers; yet there are a few online video production companies around at the moment.</p>
<p>The involvement of music composers, cameraman and script writers are also very common when creating online video productions. What&#8217;s more, marketing agencies &#038; public relations firms have recently become involved with video production and marketing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An endorsement can be an extremely powerful business booster, particularly when the person doing the endorsing is well known and respected by the people who read or hear what he or she has to say.  Your endorser doesn&#8217;t have to be a famous sportsperson, a film star, or a university president to command respect; someone who is &#8216;visible&#8217; in your community&#8217;s business life will just do fine!</p>
<p>Also the endorsement&#8217;s wording doesn&#8217;t have to be (in fact shouldn&#8217;t be) run-of-the-mill.  It can say a lot more than &#8220;Louise runs a fabulous hairdressing and beauty salon, please drop by there and see for yourself.&#8221;  An endorsement can be creative and compelling &#8211; truly novel.</p>
<p>Endorsements can be presented through direct mail, TV, telemarketing or a simple personal letter.  We use endorsements from satisfied clients all of the time.  In fact it is part of the agreement we establish with a new client from the outset.  What we say to our clients is, &#8220;If you find any of our services or business development products the best value &#8211; for &#8211; money investment you have ever made in your business, will you endorse them to your clients or customers and business associates.&#8221;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s have a an example:  When a solicitor friend of one of our daughters wanted to increase the size of her firm I suggested that she approached her accountant &#8211; who was also one of her clients &#8211; and asked him to send a letter of endorsement to his best clients.</p>
<p>Her accountant readily agreed to do this. This is what the letter said:</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s rare for me to write, much less to write about someone in another field.  But I&#8217;m writing to tell you about my solicitor, Jane Sharpe, and to tell you of some of the great work Jane has done for me.&#8221; (At this point the accountant mentioned several ways in which Jane&#8217;s advice had saved him time and money.  Then came the creative touch) -</p>
<p>&#8220;Because I appreciate your loyalty to our accountancy firm over so many years, I was thinking of sending you flowers for your office or a gift box, but I decided that the noblest thing I could do for you is to buy you an hour of Jane&#8217;s time.  I&#8217;ve arranged to do that, and there&#8217;s no charge or obligation to ever use Jane again.</p>
<p>The session will not cost you one penny, and you can use it to talk about any subject you want to discuss, whether it&#8217;s a business or personal issue &#8211; or whatever.  I can&#8217;t recommend Jane enough.  Here&#8217;s her number.  Just tell Jane that you&#8217;re someone for whom I&#8217;ve purchased an hour of her time.&#8221;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s what you call an endorsement.  One that was highly successful with just over two-thirds of those people receiving it actually taking up the offer, and 57% visited Jane not just once, but on several occasions.  Jane&#8217;s business increased dramatically, and the accountant&#8217;s business also benefited through a referral percentage.</p>
<p>Referrals provided by your customers/clients and suppliers can be another potent profit-builder and one we frequently use to add significant additional profits to our clients bottom line.</p>
<p>Keep this in mind too:  Competitors can actually help you grow your business and profits. Here&#8217;s how:</p>
<p>Go to a competitor and show them that if they&#8217;ve lost a customer or client that, for all practicality, it&#8217;s a sunken cost that they&#8217;ve written off.  Tell them that if the customer or client doesn&#8217;t want to buy from them, they can still make a profit by introducing the customer or client to you.  Both sides win.</p>
<p>Go to your competitor and say, &#8220;Let me have a chance to access your inactive clients, not your new, active ones.  Or tell them, &#8220;let me have one of your salespeople to call on your old customers to say, &#8216;You didn&#8217;t buy from us, we understand.  We&#8217;ve done something to loose your goodwill, but we want to introduce you to somebody we respect.  We think that we&#8217;re superior and superb, but if you don&#8217;t want to do business with us, let us introduce you to the next best thing.  We really respect these people.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you do just that, the law of averages says that you&#8217;re going to get 30% to 50% of those &#8216;old clients&#8217; to buy from you.  Pay the referring competitor as much as 100% of the first transaction.  Show them that you could write them a cheque for tens of thousands of pounds, which they could use to pay off debt, to run advertisements, to build new clients, to add to their facilities or, to hire additional sales personnel.</p>
<p>After they get over the shock of a competitor wanting to do business with them, many will agree to your plan.  If they say no and tell you to take a wild leap, don&#8217;t let that upset you say to them, &#8220;I&#8217;d say the same thing if someone came to me with this proposition. But let me make a point:  You&#8217;ve got a lot of lost assets.  You spend thousands of pounds to build them.</p>
<p>These old customer or clients are not buying from you now and probably they never will again.  Every week, every month, every year that you do nothing with them, it&#8217;s a lost asset worth less and less.</p>
<p>If you can convert a thousand of those five thousand customers or clients to me &#8211; and I am willing to pay you 35%, 50%, 75% or, 100% of their first transaction with me &#8211; I can write you a cheque for &#163;20,000 or &#163;50,000 or &#163;200,000.  How bad is that?&#8221;</p>
