Most everyone has an online avatar. Whether it's your Facebook picture shown to your friends or your LinkedIn picture with your resume, everyone's putting their mug shot online. With the introduction of YouTube, easy-to-use video editing software like iMovie and inexpensive video cameras like The Flip, it seems like everyone is taking the next step from pictures on the web to videos on the web.

And web videos are a natural extension of your sales and marketing efforts. It's a great way to quickly and accurately get your compelling message across to a large number of customers and prospects. We've been exploring adding video to the Inquisix site not only to educate members but allow members to tell their own story to fellow members.

Since we don't want our videos to win awards on "America's Funniest Home Videos", I sat down with Inquisix member Catie Foertsch of OurTownProductions to learn more. She talked about her 6 tips to making a better video. I'll summarize them here but you should go to her website for the complete details.

Catie's 6 tips to a better video

* Start with a script
* Be Yourself
* Use a quality microphone
* Use lots of good lighting
* Frame your face well
* End video with a call to action

Leanne Hoagland-Smith
Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
