“7 Ways To Use Live Video For More Profits, Increased Sales And Even To Build Your List From Scratch Or Become Famous In Your Niche”

————————————
Featured Article by Marlon Sanders

Live video streaming is the BIG new thing for 2008.

If you don’t have a list or a following yet, this can help you get a jump start.

If you have customers who have only bought once, this can help you turn them into multi-buyers.

But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me first say this:

The technology has come a long way. It actually works now without the herky, jerky motion of the past.

To see an example, go to: www.marktse.com/recommend/pb-channel/

A few comments on that video:

1. It doesn’t show the most dynamic part — people asking their questions in a text chat.

The interactive part of the live video chat is the real sizzle.

2. It doesn’t show all the people on the chat.

The sidebar of the actual presentation shows everyone on the chat.

Next time, I’ll do a Camtasia video so you can see the whole thing.

3. For the audio, I used a blue tooth headset since I used a Mac for the video. For some reason, the audio wasn’t as crystal as it could’ve been.

Next time, I’ll use our high quality mike. On PC’s I’ve seen people use Plantronics headsets that sounded great.

The BIG benefit of these chats compared to teleseminars is that people can ask their questions by TEXT. The problem with teleseminars is you always have some joker, competitor or truly clueless person who does NOT mute out the call then talks in the background, plays music or makes noise.

Or, even worse, they put you on hold so you can listen to their hold music. I often wonder if it isn’t competitors who do this crap. I can’t believe customers are that thoughtless.

It’s enough to make you want to scream.

The PROBLEM with this is that it removes the ability for tele-seminar participants to ask questions.

Not so with the streaming video. People are NOT on the audio. They participate on text chat. And they have to register to chat which means you can bounce them if they try to disrupt the text chat part.

What’s more, on the video chats, people can interact with others in the text chat part. And they can see everyone else on the chat.

It’s 100% more dynamic than a teleseminar. The downsides are as follows:

1. Not everyone looks good on video.

If you’re missing a bunch of teeth, it may not be for you.

2. Not everyone can interact in an entertaining way. If you bore people to tears with a monotone voice, I doubt you’ll attract a following unless you’re doing magic tricks like David Blaine. Then all bets are off.

3. From what little I’ve seen, outside your own country, the streaming isn’t good. On our test call, we had someone in UK and they were having problems with the streaming.

Now, how do YOU use this in your business:

1. Do presentations for your prospects who haven’t bought yet.

The added interaction and ability to ask questions can get you that illusive order. How many people on your list do you have who have not bought anything from you yet?

I bet you can get some of those people to buy.

2. Use live video to develop a following and build your LIST.

If you’re starting from scratch, this is a good start on getting a following, building your list and becoming famous in your niche.

Add in article writing, an ebook or two, a blog, and you’re off to a fast start.

The thing about live video is you CAN build your list starting from scratch. You’ll be offering this before almost anyone else in your niche.

It’s a chance for you to turn back the clock and get a big leap on everyone else.

3. Do presentations for customers who bought once but haven’t bought a second time.

By adding the interactivity and answering their questions, you have the ability to respond to their exact concern or objection or give personal advice.

4. Use live video in your conversion sequence.

Somewhere in your follow up sequence with prospects, drop in the video.

5. Record the live chat and drop the playback video into your autoresponder. That’s a no-brainer.

6. Upload the recorded videos to YouTube and the other video sites. Again, that’s a no-brainer.

7. Hold live video chats where you have your testimonials participate via text chat and type in their testimonials. Add that to the social proof of seeing a bunch of others on the chat, and you have the dynamics of increased sales.

All-in-all, this technology WORKS. And it’s very practical in your marketing.

Recently I read a book on the subject of domaining.

==> www.marktse.com/cb.php/panda31/blog/

It’s called the ‘Domain Profit Guide’ - and in 107 easy-to-read pages, the authors gave me a complete grounding on the exciting possibilities of domaining, and links to some outstanding resources about making domaining profitable.

Not only will you get information about buying and selling domain names, you even get actual SAMPLE emails to send prospective buyers and sellers - so you can get your domains at rock-bottom prices, and cash out at a huge premium!

There’s very little hype and fluff in the ebook. And a lot of content. You’ll learn what makes a domain valuable, where to buy great domains, and how to make them pay… in 5 different ways!

If you are excited about the potential in domaining, and keen to test out the potential that’s waiting to be tapped, I strongly recommend that you get and read this short manual.

==> www.marktse.com/cb.php/panda31/ml/

Now, I heard from one of the authors, Paul Gunter, that they were doing a relaunch and already the buzz about their valuable content was creating ripples.

So I wanted to let you know - for 2 reasons.

#1 - You must be AHEAD of the crowd, not jostling with hundreds of other followers. That’s the way to rich rewards and huge success.

#2 - Considering the value of this content, I’m guessing the authors will limit the total number of copies they’ll sell at this price, and then may choose to pull it off the market or hike the price. I have no evidence for this - just a calculated guess.

If you are curious enough to want to learn more, here’s the link to the ebook, ‘Domain Profit Guide’:

Hope you find it interesting - and profitable
