HEADS UP!!!!!!!!!! [b ]THIS MEETING WILL BE AT THE HYATT PLANO [color=crimson][/color][/b]
WHEN: LAST MEETING OF 2009 IS THIS FRIDAY THE 18TH OF DECEMBER 2010 [center][/center]
3100 Dallas Parkway Plano, TX 75093 - (972) 378-3997
Part of designing our marketing roadmap included making better use of media networking. Today we will be interviewing you and recording the footage for YouTube. Some of these will be shot individually and some will be shot presentation style in front of your website on a large screen.
Additionally we will be discussing how to SEO your video's. Jennifer will lead the initial discussion, then our guest presenter... the amazing Pat Dougher will be presenting:
Learn how to speak more proficiently.
Learn how to speak on camera
Learn what to do with video once you have it.
If you didn't get filmed last week... don't worry... You are first this week! Last week we filled the room... let's double it this week with guests :-)!
This will be the practice run preparing you for the professional recording, posting the video's on youtube for your use on your websites. You can see last weeks video's by going to www.youtube.com/compliments2009 (Click see all and they are directly under the college ball game videos).
If you are looking to advertise with online video, it may help to think of it in a very similar manner as you would traditional television content, with respect to creative. Not much has changed in that department. Successful ads still must capture viewer interest and connect that to your brand.
What has changed is how you can go about getting that content out. As opposed to the limited television route, which only offers viewers a small (although certainly larger compared to that of yesteryear) amount of channels, online video means practically limited channels. There are tons of video sites out there beyond the well-knowns like YouTube and Hulu. Most of these video sites have tons of channels. Most of them also enable users to embed videos, so videos that are hosted on these sites can be posted at any site on the web. You can of course offer this feature if you host your own video as well.
Not everyone can afford a big budget to make a really flashy looking video ad. There are ways around this for businesses with small budgets. You don't need explosions to have a good ad. There are plenty of indie films that are better than Transformers 2, if you catch my drift.
As we prepare to bring in a professional video crew, we will continue to record these interviews through the balance of December to give you some great material for 2010 and for Google :-). We will also be taking some still pictures so you can learn how to SEO your images and video's.
We will have a workshop attending while each of you are getting filmed, so don't be late and RSVP early - - Last week we did not have enough room with all the last minute attendees so please RSVP online atleast 24 hours prior to the meeting and make sure your guests do as well. We are happy to have more than expected, but want you to not have to sit on each others laps as well. :-)
