Social Media Revolution – Youtube Channels

Posted on by

Youtube is the fastest growing video hosting site in the world. The channels that Youtube provides its users can be a powerful marketing tool to show off your brand and help sell your products and services. Channels can easily be customized with special background images of yourself or your logos. You can use the channel to store all of your videos in one place where everyone can see them, make friends, build subscribers and collect comments.

Youtube channels provide clickable links to websites to help drive traffic to your websites from the millions of Youtube visitors each and every day. Businesses large and small are taking advantage of the power of Youtube and of online video. Some brands, such as the floundering Old Spice brand, found new life in comedy skits produced just for Youtube. The videos were so unique and funny that they went “viral,” meaning that people spread them and shared them around like wildfire, resulting in re-vitalized sales and market share for the brand.

Now as a result, many businesses are re-thinking their social networking strategies. And they are looking for people like you. People who know how to make huge strides in online marketing without costing too much. Where do you learn to be a Youtube marketing expert? Right here at the Internet Marketing Training Center.

Video has become so easy and so inexpensive to produce for the web, small companies now have the advantage that used to only belong to large corporations in terms of exposure to the public. Not long ago, before the web, you only saw video media on television. Television advertising is so expensive that only the big companies had the money to make commercials. That left out millions of small businesses that could have made an impact of the public if only they had the budget. A great commercial or promotional campaign could have been the turning point for many of these small businesses in growth and profitability. It was a game they could not afford to play….

But no longer.The Internet has opened up the possibilities and access to the public like never before. Online video is the key to small business success on the Internet. In fact, online video is reaching more people than even television due to mobile devices… people can watch their favorite shows, commercials and all, while they are doing other things. A small pizza shop now has just as much access to the general public as a major company. In this regard, small businesses are looking for staff that can manage their online video needs.

Youtube – Use Channels to Get Viewers

Posted on by

If you have an account (and everybody should, it's free) on Youtube, you've probably watch a video or 2…hundred. Have you ever noticed that some videos are on the standard white Youtube background and some videos are on a nice looking, color coordinated background? The color coordinated pages are Youtube channels. Channels are pages that users have created. They can contain any video the user chooses, along with color and background. Other viewers that like the videos you have on your channel can subscribe. If they subscribe, they will get notices of other videos you put online. This keeps people coming back to your channel, thereby increasing the views. The nice thing about channels is that you can use it to your advantage. You can create your own custom background that contains any type of information you want. This is a great way to advertise other sites, products, or services and most importantly, viewers don't see this on a regular Youtube page; only on your channel. So, you really need to be getting people to subscribe to your Youtube channel. If you would like to know MORE ways to use your channel or to get video marketing training, check out the Internet Marketing Training Center of Virginia Beach.

Point of View- Commercial

Posted on by

 

Here are some images of the way we set up for the Commercial this past weekend.  We have views from the back right of the set, back left, and also one from the talent's point of view.  Adding any kind of video's is one of the best way to get traffic to your site, you can share video's on Twitter, YouTube, Friends, Myspace, Facebook, Ect….

Before the Commercial we had to make sure all the Talent was contacted and for them to know what was expected of them.  Then we had to make sure we had all the hair products, make-up, and even wardrobe was picked out and ironed.  You really have to be on top of it and GO GO GO until it's over with.  We had the Talent come in 30 minute increments that way there was not to much waiting, but at the end of it everything came together and looked AWESOME! Way to go everyone, Thanks for helping out and being apart of the team.

Video Marketing: Use Camtasia to Create Short Videos for your Website

Posted on by

One way to increase your rankings in Google is to use short videos on your website. You may be surprised to discover that you can create short videos even if you don’t have a video camera. Using Camtasia, a screen capture video capture software, you can record anything you can put on your screen and can narrate over top of it from a microphone or from your speakers.

After you capture your presentation, you can revise it by cutting and/or pasting in various segments. In addition, you can overlay your voice, as well as sound effects or music, onto the presentation. Camtasia allows you to record audio while screen-capturing a demonstration so you can narrate the presentation while it is in progress. However, many presenters prefer to wait until they have completed the screen capture, and then record the voice-over from a script as they play back the screen capture.

Camtasia also allows the video stream to be exported to common video formats such as MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 which can be read by most computers, even if the Camtasia software is not installed.

To see the Camtasia video demonstration below, go to https://HowToUseAShoppingCart.com

This Camtasia video tells how Tom Antion has made over $750,000 just referring a product.

Video Marketing – What is it?

Posted on by

Video marketing consists of posting your videos to sites so people can watch and comment on them. Sites like Facebook, Youtube, Metacafe, Myspace, and many others accept videos. Videos get people to comment and share with their friends, just like they do with comments to posts. All of this sharing and commenting can build connections that in turn will get you customers. Video is a powerhouse when it comes to media marketing.

It contains all the other elements listed above: text, audio, images, and graphics. That makes it very powerful. Also, a lot of people don’t have the skills to create video on their own. This means that there aren’t as many videos on a subject compared to an article on the same subject.

That gives video more value. However, videos are harder to make search engine friendly. Articles are still the easiest for Google to find. But there’s good indication that video may or may not over take articles in the eyes of Google and other search engines in the near future, so getting on the video bandwagon now could be a huge benefit to your career.

With a little training, you could increase your value to a company and increase what you earn. It’s time you took your career to the next level of professionalism. If you are ready to do that, here is the place to start.
