THE BEST BUSINESS VIDEO MARKETING STRATEGIES


Best Business Video Marketing Strategies
Have you thought about getting video marketing strategies for your business? Here is what happens when you are driving along and think to yourself listening to the radio – I have heard that song before just a little while ago and here it is again and before you know it your humming or singing and can’t get it out of your brain!
I was reading a recent article from Walter Chan from Entrepreneur that I know that many of us will find value from Walter’s insight.

3 Tips for your Video Marketing Strategy
“Video lets you do more than just share information about a product: you can immerse viewers in an inspiring narrative about how your business came to be, and its potential. Video is the most efficient way to form a large-scale human connection — you get to make eye contact and speak face-to-face with an infinite number of people, without additional cost.”
True story happened the other day I was referred by one of my clients and the person went straight to my website and played the short 3-4 minute video and made his mind from the video that I was a person that he wanted to do business with. You can see how videos are very very powerful.
Don’t Just Be a Talking Head
The trick here is not to talk at people unless you have something riveting to say what you are saying will not hold interest. Quiet simple videos that force the viewer to watch words appear on their screen aren’t going to attract the numbers you want.
“TNT is a physical training company that helps people get fit through play. The video shows a playground while small children play, then moves to a gym where customers are doing similar movements and games, as adults.”
Isn’t that clever marketing! YouTube videos are popular as people want to either be educated, entertained or have their problems solved. The video paints a scene that you want to stay in for a while.
We’re flawed and that’s great.
Looking back I can remember the first video I made I was like a startled rabbit in the headlights I fluffed my lines and felt I was tripping over my tongue my whole mouth was dry and I couldn’t spit if my life depended on it. What response I got back is you’re so natural – meaning that you don’t have to be super polished you
“Humor serves the familiarity principle, because laughter releases humor that give you a natural high and a feeling of closeness to the source of the laughter. If your business is quirky or has a sense of humor people can relate to, then use it.”
Your business could even rank on videos for the very same keywords you pay Google Adwords but for a fraction of the price! Its not any video but the video will need to be optimized after you shoot it so Google will pick up the keywords.
Does this all seem too hard? You probably thought making the video was a little out of your comfort zone but we have people to make you and your business beat your competitors with awesome business branding videos that can have you sitting in a TV studio or using other special effects to bring more customers to YOU.

Tips on identifying and controlling German Cockroaches


German cockroaches are prevalent in the Unites States and are present worldwide. They contaminate spaces by spreading germs and bacteria.  The adult cockroaches are recognized by their tan color. They can also be light brown with two black horizontal stripes located behind their heads. They can grow up to 13-16mm in length. The young ones are almost black in color and have black stripes. In adult German cockroaches, wings are present, but they are rarely used to fly.
Habits, Diet, and Behavior
German cockroaches are commonly known to stay indoors in tropical environments. They prefer to remain in warmer, more humid areas. These cockroaches are usually found in bathrooms and kitchens, but can also move to different parts of the house where moisture and food are available.
German cockroaches can be introduced to residences when boxes and bags are brought into the house. Infestation can also occur through used appliances. In apartments, these insects use pipes and plumbing as a highway to move quickly from place to place.
They are scavengers and are capable of feeding on most food items. This includes soap, bindings of books and toothpaste. They have the ability to capitalize on even small amounts of food, like feeding on the dirty dishes left in the sink or crumbs missed out during cleaning.
Reproduction
German cockroaches are known to reproduce quickly. Female cockroaches will produce an average of 4 to 6 egg cases during their lifetimes. Each egg case contains  20 to 40 eggs. This case is carried by the female until 1 to 2 days before hatching. Depending on the conditions, it takes around 100 days to grow into an adult. After the German cockroaches become adults, they can survive for 100 to 200 days.  
Prevention Methods To Control German Cockroaches 
When you begin your German cockroaches control program, remember sanitation is one the first things to consider.
  • Clean any food particles or crumbs in your kitchen
  • Keep trash dumpsters clean
  • Vacuum and sweep any food particles
  • Keep dishes clean
  • Ensure that kitchen appliances are clean and free of grease or food
  • Frequently run the garbage disposal and make sure no food is left in sink strainers
  • Remove indoor trash and keep dustbins empty.
  • If you have pets, make sure all pet food crumbs are picked up
Chemical control
Baiting is an effective way to eliminate or control an infestation of German cockroaches . To protect your house from pests use Chemical pesticides containing hydra methylone, fipronil, or boric acid which provide a high-level of control. Apply these to areas where cockroaches have harbored. Use these on crevices of bureaus and cracks, ceiling light fixtures, hollow legs of chairs, shelves, and walls. If you have kids or pets at home, make sure they do not come in contact with these products. Remember to read the instructions on the labels before you use any of these.
The use of repellent sprays or aerosol foggers can also limit the infestation of German cockroaches.
Conclusion
Remember to always keep your environment clean and tidy, to avoid a cockroach infestation.  Take preventive measures as soon as possible to keep these pests at bay. Before using any chemical pesticides read and follow the instructions. Keep these away from children and pets. In case you cannot control them using these methods, it is best to call a professional pest controller.

FUNNEL HACKING – WHERE YOU DO NOT HAVE TO RE-INVENT THE WHEEL


Firstly you do need to know who are your competitors and then model their layout.
Where people go wrong is that they think that they know more than their competitors who by the way spend millions of dollars in testing and having their ad-copy written so basically they have the recipe. This is particularly useful when you are starting a new business where you have not been in a line of business before.
These people who I say model from (not copy) means that you look what layout they have and make yours very similar. What you are doing is modelling things that are tested and proven to convert..Makes sense right? Rather than start from scratch which is why marketers fail as they have not spent thousands of dollars testing and put up a new website and it really is a hope and pray version that you hope will convert – chances are that it will not and you will be left scratching your head after your campaigned failed to convert the way that you hoped it would.
Click here  for a FREE trial of Funnel Hacking
Don’t get me wrong you are just modelling the process of a successful marketing you will be doing your own landing page, sales letter and thank you page.
What we do for modelling is that we purchase the product to see how their funnels work, what are they saying? What do the pages look like? What is their up-sell and down-sell? How are they bundling the products and of course their price points in the funnel.
To find all of this out it may only cost you $100 BUT this saves you thousands of dollars of blood, sweat and tears of running with something that does not work.
Which funnel does this work for?
– supplement funnel
– coaching funnel
– e-commerce funnels
– information funnels
– funnels for real businesses
– Works for ALL businesses!

I am truly excited on what you will actually learn and be able to master in moments.

WANT ME TO WRITE YOUR COPY?


Big statement isn’t it? Anyone that is new to online marketing is practically clueless on how to write ad copy let alone GREAT copy but there are some that will be game enough to look at a blank screen hours on end and try and get inspired and then put together something that is so lame that does not excite people enough to click on their ad therefore giving you no chance to grow your list or sell your product or service.
Also, you need to follow them up with pre-written email series. I have seen courses say to the group “just copy and paste the emails I have written” but you see this has been done many times before you and people are not stupid.

NATURAL HOME REMEDIES TO KEEP PESTS OUT


While you might enjoy going out and traveling to places, it is an undeniable fact that pests are trying to get in. They’re not all trying to grab a snack from your kitchen, many emerge from winter hiding once temperatures rise and begin looking for food and water.
How do you keep the pests at bay? 

Here are some natural remedies to keep pests away from your property:
Ants- Ants are one of the most frequent home invaders and one of the easiest to deal with in a sweet-smelling, natural way. You can also cut cucumber in small slices and place them on the likely entry point of ants in your kitchen. Bitter cucumber slices works better. If you don’t have the above-mentioned remedies, soap water spray works good against ants.
Mosquitoes- If you want a mosquito-free surrounding, you can consider lemon. Lemon grass, lemon-scented Pelargoniums (commonly sold as scented geraniums) and lemon balm are some of the ones you can keep in pots or in the garden. Lemon balm is a mint and like all mints, you’ll never have to think about it again after planting except maybe to cut it back to keep it under control. Speaking of mint, rubbing it on your skin is also an effective way to repel biting bugs. 

Furthermore, it is very necessary to keep your surroundings airy and clean, take concrete measures to remove standing water sources where , mosquitoes might nest in.
Flies- The best way to keep away flies is to keep your house and surroundings clean and neat. In both kitchen and bathroom keep the drains free and clean of debris. Small sachets of mint leaves in crushed form can be placed around the home to restrict flies entering your house.
Cockroaches- We use many products available in the market to keep away roaches. The best way to keep them out of your kitchen is to keep your kitchen clean and very neat. Soap solution spray can instantly kill cockroaches if sprayed directly.
In both kitchen and bathroom keep the drains free and clean of debris. And make sure your garbage cans and compost bin lids are fit securely not only to keep insects away but four-legged pests.
However, if the pests get out of hand, it is just appropriate to admit that you need the help of experts in removing them from your property. Call Bob on 0407 065 413 for all of your pest concerns TODAY. Or go to our site A1 Pest Control Canberra for further information and education.
