Join The Video Revolution - New and Distinctive Video Sales Tools Are Now Available!
Copyright © 2007 Chuck Bauer
Waiting. And waiting. Yes, I have been waiting for a new electronic sales tool to arrive and it has finally made its way to the marketplace - video e-mailing, live video broadcasting and video training blogs! Best yet, it all works off my laptop and I can operate all functions, virtually!
I must admit, I have been an electronic junkie since the beginning days of e-mail (even before the days of Al Gore discovering the Internet). Using an electronic infrastructure is certainly a way to increase your sales efficiencies and profits, not to mention working smarter versus working harder. Most of my highest net profit sales coaching students totally understand what I mean. You should too!
Watching the e-mail world over the past few years - I have seen a dramatic decline in its overall usage. Mainly because of spam filters and blockers and I think that as humans we have grown tired of all the useless garbage that gets forwarded along in the electronic world.
I wasn't sure what would be the next great move in electronic communication. Now we are on the cusp of a great new electronic revolution - and that being video communication. Just look at the advancement of http://www.youtube.com and you know what I am talking about.
Know this - all my Students and High Level Sales Executives that I work with are always on the LQQKOUT for distinctive and cutting edge sales tools and the video communication tools suite is just one of the many new electronic sales tools that I have discovered. Not only that, these new video communication tools hit at the heart of some simple sales philosophies:
It is a fact that people remember:
10% of what they read
20% of what they hear
30% of what they see
50% of what they see and hear
Beyond that, the impact of a message has been attributed to the following percentages:
55% of the impact of a message stems from a persons body language
38% of the impact of a message stems from the persons voice quality
7% of the impact of a message comes from the persons words
Allowing your client to view your body language while hearing and seeing them inspires almost all their senses.
Use video in all your and you will enjoy its many benefits, such as: uniformity of message, reduced travel and marketing costs by eliminating mailing samples, mockups, tapes/CDs/DVDs, gain real time customer feedback and shorten your sales cycle. You'll also create a tremendous bond with your customer base. I did my first "live" broadcast just last week with a client in Palm Springs and the results were powerful. They dialed into my website, in real time, and saw yours truly and my presentation, right over their computer - LIVE!
Here is a list of the complete "suite" of items that I am not only using for business and yet I am offering these services as a reseller. Each product has a short video attached that you can review.

At the heart of this technology is an exclusive video transcoding engine that resides in the Studio Media Vault. This is where your video is simply converted into another format, i.e., Windows Media to QuickTime, with just a click of the mouse. Once your video is stored on our servers, it can be delivered to your viewers in almost any format: Flash, Windows Media, QuickTime, DivX, etc., and delivered automatically. This insures your video or audio file will play on a majority of all devices.
You can also upload mp3 files, pictures and videos into your Media Vault for preserving and sharing. With up to 40 gigabytes of space available, you'll be assured you'll have ample storage for all your digital assets.

These products are cost effective and simple to use. Even a novice like myself, with no formal training, was able to install the camera easily and with the online 24/7 chat available from the customer service department, I was up and running in just a few short hours.
