Flip Video

I bought the Flip Video about two years ago and I began to do facial readings (physiognomy) and post the results to my www.StreetSmartDifference.com Sales Training website. It was a lot of fun to find people, tell them about themselves and then have them tell me how much fun it was.

The fact is, adding a video every week to your site will increase your rankings drastically. Not only do people like videos but the search engines love them. So it makes sense to keep adding them as often as possible.

I use my Flip video when I’m out with friends or when I’m at events. No matter where I go I find a reason to capture the moment and use it for one of my blogs.

Each video should be no more than five minutes. You can load the video directly from your computer or you can load them to a YouTube channel and load them from there. If you use YouTube, there are three methods of uploading your video:

1. The URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvuKOMDNgmI&list=UUgYxZA-hoWE4-Py-MPi_2Aw&index=5&feature=plcp
2. The embedded version:
3. Share the Video: http://youtu.be/zvuKOMDNgmI

Some blogs will have a link back to YouTube to watch the video when you use the URL. So you’ll need to test the three methods to see which one works to play the video within your blog.

CD Creation

It is so much easier to create new material than most people think. I have created a new CD at least once a year. I pay close attention to the conversations I hear when I’m speaking and trying to ask people what their main challenges are. That is the information I use to compile the data for the new CD programs.

I will do the research, mostly through Google, but after doing this for 20 years, I can create a program with very little research. I often listen to a teleseminar and think how little information is included and the host spends the majority of their time selling a program they have. It’s understandable to a point, but when you take the time out to listen to a program, there should be more than enough content.

The first thing you can do after you pick a topic is to create at least 18 talking points. When you organize your talking points, you will be able to record your presentation, edit it and have an hour long CD afterwards.

You can go to fiverr.com and have an artist create a CD label for you and get the CD labels on ebay for $20 for 100. The best way to get the CD’s to burn if you prefer to do them yourself is when you find them on sale for $15 for 100 at the office supply stores or CostCo.

I also found a great service, CDDuplicator.com that will burn the CD’s for $1 with a 20 minimum order.

I typically put my CD’s in a case and make the covers on my color printer with the photo paper. My typical CD sells for $20 and the total costs is less than $2.
