Be Careful of Free Video Sites That Aren't Really Free
Are you an avid online shopper? If so, there is a good chance that you have come across a number of different deals and discounts online. Similar to those deals and discounts is the ability to obtain something online without paying a fee, those items, products, or services are commonly known as being free. Unfortunately, you will find that when it comes to being free, not all free things are actually free. One of those things is online video websites, not all of them are as free as you would think they would be.
Before examining online video websites that are classified as being free, you first must understand that you may have to pay a small fee to view their online videos. Most of the sites that are labeled free online video websites are free to join. Essentially, this means that you do not have to be considered a paid member just to join the site. By creating a free membership program, there are many online websites, including online video websites, that are able to claim that they operate and run a free program.
With most online video websites, you fill find a wide variety of free videos. These types of videos have been found on almost all types of video websites. Free videos are, in most cases, considered homemade videos. Homemade videos are made by internet users, just like you, who have little or no experience creating professional videos. Many of the free, homemade videos that you can find online include comedy skits, unprofessionally constructed music videos, how-to videos, and funny, but unscripted recordings.
The video types that you may have to pay for include popular television show reruns, professional music videos, celebrity interviews, children's television shows, and much more. Most online video websites, if they charge for these types of videos charge only around two dollars for each video, sometimes even less. Google Video is one of those websites. Depending on the type of video website you are at, you can typically view this video more than once, after you pay for it.
While you may assume that it is a pain for pay for online videos, it is something that needs to be done. In fact, these small fees are, often times, the only legal way to watch your favorite television shows or music videos online. This is because the content is owned by another individual, often a television producer or a record label. With these types of video, most video owners need to receive reimbursement for their work; thus the payment. Unless permission is granted by the individual or company who owns the video rights, it technically illegal to have videos, whether they be music videos or television show reruns, available online free of charge.
In addition to legally viewing videos, you will also help to be generating income for someone else. For instance, if you purchase the right to download or view a popular music video, it is likely that the artist or group you are watching will receive a small amount of compensation for their work. This compensation is often what keeps the television, movie, and music industry going in full swing.
As previously mentioned, you may find it inconvenient to have to go through the process of buying an online video, but it will be worth it in the long run, often in more ways than one. You are encouraged to remember that the next time you go searching for an online video in an illegal matter.

Simple way to avoid Cold Calling
- Gary,
A chiropractor I work with hates cold calling (me too!) and he uses a technique to warm people up to using his services - it's so simple!
In Sales your dealing with 3 pools of people:
1. Strangers
2. Prospects
3. Returning Customers
You need to move people from one pool to the next. We'll concentrate on #1 and #2 as it's most relevant to your question.
My Clients does the following (you just have to tailor it to your situation - be creative).
My Client (we'll call him Bob) Bob leverages his time and resources to only get people that need his offer (pain relief) to put their hand up. Dealing with Strangers can get expensive and they don't like to be told what to do as they have no trust or relationship built with him.
So to get Strangers to put their hands up he writes up an offer with a free report on a particular pain relief - let's say lower back pain (note: he can simply just change lower back pain to neck pain and have a new report). and uses multiple marketing vehicles to promote the Free report - magazines, newspaper, forums, postcards, private clinics etc.
The only people picking up this information are the very people Bob would like as customers as they have Lower back pain. Bob's Free report ends with him stating his services and includes a Free in-house Consultation with no obligation.
You'd be surprised at how easily Bob converts Strangers into Prospects. Note: They become prospects when they ask for the Free Guide and in exchange provide their contact details. This gives Bob unlimited opportunity to contact them for the Free in-house consultation with no obligation to continue using him.
At this stage Bob's ability to close the sale lies in his office providing good customer service, Bob's ability to help the prospect and provide value at the free in-house consultation.
Notice, he hasn't had to pick up the phone to COLD-CALL his Stranger pool or his Prospect pool.
Hope that example helps to increase your prospecting!

Re: Internet Marketing is the best business in the world
- [quote="WhyNot":ms4wci6i]You stated that you can get your product in front of millions of people within 5 minutes using PPC.
What is PPC?
I am considering writing an e-book, how can I best market it?
[/quote:ms4wci6i]
It is Pay per click advertising. You have google, yahoo, MSN and other sites that offer it. Your ad shows up along site of the search results for the key words you specify and on other sites as "sponsered results". You could test the market with PPC (track where you get your hits from;keywords and so forth and use SEO to get FREE traffic), or Free methods like article marketing.. Either way you have to [u:ms4wci6i]know what your doing [/u:ms4wci6i](supply,demand, niche, [u:ms4wci6i]Highly[/u:ms4wci6i] targeted prospects, Location specifics [country, state,city,zip code,] etc.). Oh yeah and you have to have money. Because you are going to lose money if you are a beginner. Man I need to include this post on my blog...LOL Been a while since I been here. Just got this notification in my email and figured I'd help you out. Been working on my SEO.
To answer your other question there are LOTs of other Free ways to advertise/market. For example Forum marketing
Yahoo Answers (great for SEO to) But be careful not to bet banned.
SEO of course Search Engine Optimization
US Free Leads
Article Marketing
YouTube
Twitter
Yahoo blogs
Blogging (blogger,squidoo, hub pages)
Myspace
Facebook
Newspaper ads
Craigslist
etc.
The list goes on. These are just a few I though of off the top of my head. Now that I think of it I need to start doing more myself.
