It’s time for the next event in our free PowerStart Webinars series, this time Video Marketing TODAY! with the ‘King of Camtasia’ Lon Naylor. It’s another live online webcast, this time at 8pm Eastern on Tuesday, June 8th. Attendance is limited to the first 1,000 people though, so be sure to register now

Just glancing around this blog you’ll see I’m no stranger to creating videos or to using videos for marketing online. But what you may not know is I’m also a professional glamor videographer and the author of such e-books as “It’s You… Live!“, a guide to podcasting and vlogging (video blogging) and “Creating Your Own Videos“, a guide to creating your own video products to market online. I’m also the creator of various video tutorials such as “Converting PLR Videos” and the “PLR Tutorial” training videos. So to say I’m comfortable with my video skills is an understatement… ;-)

I don’t say all that to brag, but so that you know I’m a video expert and that when I say Lon Naylor is the ‘King of Camtasia’ I’m definitely qualified to make that evaluation of Lon’s skills. Teri & I met with Lon at JVAlert in Philadelphia last month, and then after my speech there we all went to dinner to further discuss Internet marketing and affiliate marketing in general and using videos in particular. I was sufficiently impressed with Lon’s knowledge on the subject that I instantly asked him to present one of our PowerStart Webinars events on the topics of creating videos and using videos for online marketing and he agreed to creating a video tutorial webcast for you – the webinar tomorrow night is the result of that meeting.

About Lon Naylor…

Amongst his other activities online, Lon is the owner and operator of the Learn Camtasia blog and video training facility. While most marketers haven’t even upgraded to Camtasia 7 yet, Lon already has a coaching program for it! Lon regularly teaches marketers and product creators how to leverage screen capture videos (like those made with Camtasia) for maximum marketing effect.

A 30-year veteran of the computer industry, Lon spent the last 10 years of his professional career during the decade of the 90’s as a senior engineer at Microsoft before ‘retiring’ in 1999 at age 41. There he specialized in high-level multimedia presentations where it was not uncommon for millions of dollars in revenue to be at stake.

His ability to take highly technical concepts and break them down into simple, easy to understand presentations and tutorials is a result of the years of experience gained in his long career working with companies like Honeywell, American Express, and the national labs at Sandia and Los Alamos.

As an extremely early adopter and evangelist of the Internet, he has long recognized and exploited its massive potential for delivering effective sales messages via video to a global audience.

As an authority on the Camtasia suite of video production software, he is a highly sought out resource and the ‘Camtasia go-to guy’ of many of the top internet marketing names such as myself, Willie Crawford, Ken McCarthy, Bob ‘The Teacher’ Jenkins, and many more.

Lon is on a mission to “Rid the world of lousy marketing videos” as he puts it, and carries on this effort from his rural Wisconsin home on the Apple River enjoying trout fishing from his backyard, kayaking, and recording music in his recording studio. But his greatest passion remains in creating effective marketing videos and teaching others to do the same.

About the Webcast…

Video Marketing Today will be an hour or so of solid content – content you can put to use right now in your marketing and/or product creation efforts. Creating videos and using videos effectively will be just a part of the story, as Lon has promised to reveal secrets like the 3 common video marketing myths, the 5 common things you must NOT do with video and the 5 things you should be doing RIGHT NOW when creating videos and using videos in your marketing mix.

While we always hope to make these PowerStart Webinars recordings available to you after the event, we’re all all too familiar with the glitches that can crop up online, so I can’t guarantee the replay will be available – best be online at the webcast to be sure you don’t miss this powerful tutorial broadcast. At the end of the call both Lon & I will be available live to answer any questions you have about creating videos, using video promotions and creating video products, so you’ll want to be there during the live event anyway.

But as I said at the outset, the webinar broadcasting service only makes bandwidth available for the first 1,000 attendees, so be sure to register now and then arrive a few minutes early tomorrow night! Pay attention, take notes, ask your questions and you could be creating videos and using videos online like a true pro in no time – See you on the webcast!

List building is perhaps the most important aspect of Internet marketing – after all, how often have you heard that the ‘money is in the list’? Every morning, like clockwork, I send out our e-zine and by the end of the day have banked another few hundred dollars on average. So it’s safe to say that without our optin lists it would take a lot more effort to stay in the 6-7 figure a year range.

Another important part of Internet marketing is the networking we do with other marketers, usually resulting in lasting friendships. One such friend is Socrates Socratous, the kid from a tiny village in Cypress who is now the rich young Californian dude – so rich he’s taking a TWO-MONTH VACATION back home in Cypress this summer – not too shabby, eh? I didn’t really know Socrates til I was asked to be a speaker at his Internet Marketing Seminar in Sandusky Ohio in 2007, but when I met him he was charming, intelligent, polite – and a great guy all-round. So we’ve kept in touch…

But wouldn’t you know it, he still keeps secrets – even from me! It was just this week I found out he’s been hiding a major new list-building secret from me – and it turns out it’s one I’ve never even HEARD of anyone using before! He’s cracked the code and found a way to get more than 3,000 new signups from each little set-and-forget foray he makes into list building – and his list is now over 200,000 strong! In Internet marketing circles, that’s huge – probably one of the top 50 or 100 lists in the WORLD for our industry!

But what’s even more impressive – pay close attention here – he does this without using his list, his existing traffic, any form of paid advertising… Not even his own sites! In other words, this new form of list-building can be accomplished by a complete newbie with no list, no websites, no blog – and for free! That’s definitely a first in the Internet Marketing world!

Now you see why I was miffed he hadn’t shared it with me before now… Strangest thing is, he’s so confident of his ability to just keep on doing it, he’s not only revealing the secret now, but he’s made a FREE VIDEO to teach people how to do it – and the video ISN’T a sales pitch for anything – there’s nothing to buy because it’s a free system. Free to learn and free to use, over and over again! And if you do it right, it’ll bring in signups for months – even years!

Now remember – I said this is a brand-new system in the Internet marketing world, so it’s not one you’ve used or can guess – it’s not joint ventures, article marketing, blogging, Twitter, social media – none of the list-building tools you’ve used so far or even read about in articles or e-books on building lists. The only way you could have been exposed to this before is if you were in Socrates’ high-end coaching program, which would set you back thousands to join. And no, he’s not doing this to get you into his coaching either – that stays booked full as it is.

So run – don’t walk – to this video before he pulls it offline for good. He’s not making anything from it, and once enough people have seen this and put the teachings to use he’s liable to notice the competition heating up a bit and pull it back offline. I can honestly say I don’t know how long he’ll share the info, because until now he wouldn’t even tell me about it. And it’s good enough I’m going to start using it THIS WEEK, even though I’m still tied up with interviews, teleseminars and other launch activities for my Advanced Twitter Marketing System.

So – how about you? Want to spend a few hours setting up a set-and-forget list builder that costs you nothing and keeps bringing in subscribers for a year or more? Using a system so simple you can repeat it over and over again? Thought you might! ;-) So head on over now and watch the free video:

FREE Video: Step-by-Step Internet Marketing List Building How-To Tutorial

No matter what form of Internet marketing, affiliate marketing or niche marketing you’re doing, this is an amazing system that will work equally well for newbies and gurus alike – no cash, lists, joint ventures, article writing or traffic needed. So go watch the free video now, ok?

Last night I spent some time going through the new Blog Post Automator that Mike and Greg just launched. Mike Mazzella and ourselves have been friends for a couple of years now, both online and getting together with he and Sheri each time they come to Niagara Falls. So I know Mike well enough to know he’s a real stand-up guy, and wouldn’t be involved with the product if it wasn’t top notch – but I still had to see for myself…

I can’t believe how easy it is!

Even if the bundle didn’t include complete, step by step video training Gregg did himself, even a complete newbie could figure this one out…

You see, they’ve built the script into a plugin for WordPress blogs, so installation is as simple as any of the plugins you already use on your blog! Yet take a look at all the Blog Post Automator does…

Once the plugin is in, you just tell it which folder your text files are in, how often you want it to add a new post from that folder, and what category to list those posts under – then go on with everything else you have to do, knowing your blog’s taken care of!

Go ahead and download your copy right now while it’s still under twenty bucks from The Blog Post Automator blogging software site.

Empowering YOU To Dominate 2009…

Doug Champigny

PS – Did I mention you could also use this to post your podcasts to your blog? Give old PLR articles new life by recording them, then use the Blog Post Automator to add one every few days to your site – whether you’re blogging in between or not! Grab this baby now and you can be up to speed with it in just twenty minutes or so!

PPS – If you’re interested, you can pick up the Master Rights (MRR) to this one too – watch for a rights OTO once you order the personal use version – it’s only ten bucks more, and you should be able to make back what you laid out and make some more on top pretty quickly – I did with my first mailing on it! So go ahead and grab your copy, with or without the MRR, from the Blog Post Automator site.

Helping you succeed… DC.

Internet marketing is a great way to make money online – enough to boost your income, replace your offline job and join the work-at-home crowd, or get rich online – depending on the talents, resources, effort and perseverance you bring to the table. If you’re in our online family, you already know that – in fact if you’re reading Internet marketing blogs like this you already know that too. So your online business is already up and running, thriving, and constantly moving ahead, taking your profits into the stratosphere slowly but surely, right?

What? No Internet marketing business yet? No opt-in mailing lists? No blog? No salespages or squeeze pages online? Don’t feel bad – for every 100 people who know the power of Internet marketing, only 1 or 2 have done anything about it so far. Just decide that today is the day that all changes for you, that you’re about to get off your butt and actually DO something to improve your lot, to start building your Internet business, and to take those first few baby steps towards your own dream lifestyle!

In the next few days – say by the end of a week – you can be set up and ready to rock. That’s what this post is for – to show you what it takes to get up and started quickly. Surely you can stay motivated for a week, right? And when you see how far you’ve gotten in that one week, you’ll realize that it’s not a tough business – it just takes steady, focused action to start your online business and keep your Internet marketing profits growing year after year.

If you’ve read my previous two posts, on Starting An Online Business and Starting An Affiliate Marketing Business, then you already have some idea of what it takes to get started, so today I’ll focus on how to get there quickly…

Your Most Valuable Internet Marketing Resource

Right now, without the hesitation that held you back throughout 2008, get your account at Hosting4Marketers.com. This is far more than just some cheap webhosting, because…

  • You get enough hosting space for more than a dozen websites, blogs, salespages and squeeze pages – that’s worth more than $20 a month, right?
  •  

  • You get unlimited professional autoresponders – you can set up an automated follow-up series for each niche you’re in, for your mainstream Internet marketing, and still have the ability to send out broadcast e-mails to any subset of your lists or to all your subscribers at any time – and no rising fees as your list size grows! (Some services start raising your rates with as few as 500 or 1,000 subscribers – sheesh!) That part’s worth more than $20 a month too, right?
  •  

  • You get your own affiliate program. That’s right – you get a fully-featured affiliate program so others can sell your products for you too! Your products don’t even have to be hosted there, so if you already have some products or services online hosted elsewhere, you can still use this affiliate program with those products, without having to move any of your other sites. This part alone is worth a small fortune on it’s own, isn’t it?

OK – now maybe you’re seeing why we think Hosting4Marketers.com is our most valuable Internet marketing resource – and why it should be yours too. Easily worth $97 a month or more, I’m still surprised that they’ve kept it to just $20 a month – I’d still be using it at 10 times that cost! (But don’t tell them that! lol) Go ahead and get your Hosting, Autoresponders and Affiliate Program now – I’ll wait, but just don’t forget to come back and continue on…

Setting Up Your Internet Marketing Blog

Now that you have that account, let’s get you rolling – this video shows you how to set up a blog on your site there in under 5 minutes. No, I’m not kidding or exaggerating – just follow along with that video and you can set up an Internet marketing blog (or any other types of blog) in under 5 minutes. Don’t keep reading – go now and set up your blog. Then continue on here…

Setting Up Your Internet Marketing E-Zine

OK – next up is your autoresponder series – you can write your own, or use the Internet Marketing Newsletter In A Box, prewritten with a year’s worth of content for you. All you need to do is add your name as the author to each issue, and add links to your own products or to products you make affiliate commissions from. ClickBank & PayDotCom are two of the biggest sources of affiliate products to market, so sign up here for Free Updates of All New Products launching at ClickBank & PayDotCom – you’ll get an e-mail once a day showing you the new affiliate opportunities listed at both services that day – what could be simpler?

Building Your Opt-In Lists – Getting New Subscribers

Once even the first 7 – 10 issues are loaded up into your autoresponder, it’s time to get your first opt-in subscribers. Standard procedure in the Internet marketing field is to offer them a valuable gift for free just for trying your newsletter. Here’s two gifts you can have for trying our e-zine, and we even give you the squeeze page to use so you can give them away and build your own list too! Take a minute right now and download your Free Report and Squeeze Page and your Free List-Building Resource and Squeeze Page. You can get more Free Brandable E-Books To Give Away too, which carry YOUR affiliate links and let you build more affiliate commissions from those getting your reports, and those they give it away to too!

Building Targeted Traffic To Your Blog

Now return to your blog and write one good blog post for each of the three or four free gifts you just downloaded, linking each blog post to the URL where you put the squeeze page for that gift. Us the post to tell them about the gift, what it’s for and what it can do for them – 3-5 paragraphs will do for each post. Once you have them all done, go to Pingoat.com and announce your new blog to the world.

Set up a free account at each of Technorati and MyBlogLog.com and get your new blog listed with each of them there too. After that, set up an account at Twitter.com, interact with the community there for a while, and then invite them to your blog as well. Do the same with Internet Marketing forums and social bookmarking sites like StumbleUpon, OnlyWire, etc.

And there you have it – step by step you’ve built the core of your new Internet marketing & affiliate marketing business, in less than a week and for less than $100 total investment. And your only ongoing expense to this point is your $20 a month to Hosting4Marketers.com.

Keep posting relevant information to your blog, branding and offering more free e-books to those who sign up for your mailing list, and e-mail that list at least 3 times per week. Remember to hit Pingoat.com after each blog post to tell the directories about your new posts.

Most importantly, be sure to bookmark this blog and return to it regularly – I’ll be adding more and more tips on building your Internet marketing business throughout the year! To be sure you don’t miss any important updates, subscribe to my Internet Marketing RSS Feed if you have an RSS reader, and Follow Me On Twitter.

Congratulations on breaking through and actually starting your Internet Marketing Business – and welcome to making money online – hope to see you as part of the work-at-home community soon!

Doug Champigny.

As you know, video is exploding all over the net these
days – video squeeze pages, video testimonials, affiliate
videos, video salespages… And if you read my new e-book
last month on Podcasting and Video Blogging you know that
video blogging is starting to catch on too!

So just how are YOU using video online? How about as
products? Our PLR Tutorial Videos are our
best-performing product still, although our newest ones,
Using PLR Videos will probably take over
the top spot soon…

Why? Because far from just being for those using PLR
videos, the training in that bundle teaches you how to
edit ANY video
– PLR, your own, affiliate videos, those
you outsourced, etc. And precisely BECAUSE video is now
exploding everywhere online, this bundle will become
more and more important for the next couple of years
at least.

Think about it – there’s nothing else out there in the
Internet Marketing arena that teaches you how to actually
edit video, how to create videos from scratch, how to
convert PLR videos for your own use as unique products,
or how to create video intros & exits you can just drop in
place at the start and end of each video you want to use.
Only one is the bundle at UsingPLRVideos.com

Do you doubt that the whole industry – the whole
Internet, in fact
– is heading towards video? Do you
doubt that you’ll need to learn the technology just
to keep up? Of course you don’t - you’re too
smart for that!

So why wait til the last moment & face a major
learning curve just to catch back up and try and win
back the visitors and results you’ve lost by then?
We all learn easier when it’s still fun and creative,
rather than when we’re under the gun to learn just to
survive – so use those smarts you have and join the
dozens of Internet Marketers, videographers, bloggers &
webmasters who’ve already secured their copy of
this powerful training resource! Head over & start
your download of Doug Champigny’s Using PLR Videos
bundle now!

Empowering YOU To Dominate Video in 2009…

Doug Champigny
http://UsingPLRVideos.com

PS – Yes, the bundle was just released yesterday, and
yes, dozens have already downloaded it from the site at
http://www.UsingPLRVideos.com. Some of them will use
the information to pull ahead of you… Unless you use
it to crush them first. Who’s going to dominate the new
video technologies – them or you? It’s your choice…

Helping you succeed with video… DC.

Here it is – the Using PLR Videos bundle – our newest product launch! Just hitting the Internet 15 minutes ago, this is an amazing package that every Internet marketer, niche marketer, webmaster and blogger is going to want to get their hands on!

Why? Because not only does it teach you how to convert PLR Videos into your own unique products, but it shows you how to edit and compile video for use online – and EVERY site will be using video in the near future – or be left behind.

There are 3 parts to this bundle – the audio recording of our recent Using PLR Videos teleseminar that dozens paid $47 to listen in on, the written transcript of the call in PDF format, and large 800×600 videos showing you step-by-step how to use PLR videos and convert them into your own unique products.

PS – No Master Resell Rights or Private Label Rights will ever be available for this bundle, but a limited number of Standard Resell Rights licenses have been issued. Only 100 people will ever have the SRR rights to this product, and 26 were pre-booked before launch, leaving just 74 remaining licenses. See the Using PLR Videos website for more info on the remaining Standard Resell Rights licenses, ok?
