Promoting yourself or an idea

To be on a show like Oprah, one needs to draw from multiple sources. I know that it will take lots of energy (but it is fun) and it may take many resources to become a guest.

I will be utilising marketing tools, media tools, social networking and of course visualisation and the “laws of attraction.”

Today i am going to add a You Tube clip to this blog.

Why You Tube?

I learnt about the power of the internet from a web guru called Monte Huebsch.

Monte’s knowledge on utilising the internet is second to none. From him I learnt that Google is No 1 search engine in the world, and You Tube is the second. This means when people are looking up a topic on the internet, if they don’t find a satisfactory answer on google (probably on the first page) then they will go to You Tube.

It’s really easy. All you need is a video camera (I use my phone) , a USB connector (so you can connect your phone or video to your computer) and a You Tube account. You Tube is free so it is just a matter of spending 10 minutes signing up and starting your account.

The videos don’t have to be “world class”. But they should be quick, lively and informative.

I have found that I am getting better and better with each one. This is one I have done today to add to my blog site.

Oh yes, the other reasons you tube clips are really good are:

- people can get a “feel” for you before they buy from you

- you can demonstrate an idea or process (sometimes better than the written word)

- you are rewarded by google for having more activity connected to your site

- of course, You Tube is the world’s second search engine. It’s like not having a presence on google . Nowdays its just considered the norm.
