It is about how I bring photographs to life by creating professional video slideshows that look like they cost hundreds of dollars.

My secret is that I am not an expert in video editing. My secret is that anyone can create their own professional video slideshows using the online video creation software that I use.

My secret is Animoto.

There. I said it. And I must admit that I feel a lot better for it!

When I first started out with these videos, I would guard this secret with my life in the fear that people would rather go away and make these videos by themselves instead of paying me to do so!

I have since realised that my fear was somewhat unfounded and that my job is safe.phew.

Most people do not want to have to spend the time and money on making their own videos. Most people don’t care how these videos are made.they just want one made for them!

But there is a certain group of people that I believe will be interested in learning how to create these videos for themselves. This wonderful group of people is known as.photographers.

I now see just how valuable Animoto videos can be to photographers, whom are much more likely to want to go away and create their own videos of their photos than the typical “normal” person. Not that photographers are not ormal people, of course.

The creative freedom to be able to go away and put your photography together in a slideshow with emotionally moving background music is likely to be very appealing to many photographers.

How To Create Your Own Video Slideshows

Animoto videos are created online. You log in to your account, upload your photos, and drag and drop them into place.

You then add in your own custom text and select a backing track from their huge royalty free music library.

Now, this is the best thing about the videos.the photo transitions are done in time with the music. People will think you are a genius when they see how amazing these videos look!

Once you have added your photos, text and music, you just click “Done” and Animoto magically creates your video.

It really is that simple, and it does not cost too much either. I have seen professional looking videos on photographers websites that have obviously cost them hundreds of dollars. If only they had known about my little secret!

3 Ways To Use Your Video

Here are some great ways of using a professional video slideshow of your photographs.

1. Showcase your work

A video slideshow is an excellent way for someone new to your photography to get an overview of your best work in just a few minutes. The videos really do make a great first impression, and it is much more exciting for your visitors than having to trawl through your portfolio, photo by photo.

2. Social networking

Whether a professional or a hobbyist, you will easily be able to share your videos online. Simply upload the video to YouTube, post the link on Facebook, and a nice viral effect may start to take place as people share your video with their friends.

3. Sell the videos

Many photographers choose to show their clients (from a wedding or senior photo shoot etc.) a video slideshow of their photos. They then offer their client that video for free if they upgrade to the premium package.

Clients are usually so blown away by the video, that upgrading to the premium package is a no-brainer for them.

It’s A Wrap

So there you have it: a quick and easy way to create your own exciting video slideshows and use them to get your photography out there.

There are many ways to use video to show off your work. The opportunities for are endless.

Whether you go away and make your own videos or decide to hire someone to make them for you, I just hope this post has got some exciting ideas floating around in your head!

Online faxing has become extremely popular, both with individuals and companies, mainly because it is a better way to fax. With this in mind, here are 10 reasons you should consider getting an online fax service.

1. Cost-effective. This new modern way of faxing is much more cheaper than the conventional method. Plus, you have no need to buy papers, inks and toners.

2. Easy To Use. Sending a fax is as easy as sending an email, and we all know how to do that. You can send your fax via email or you can simply log into your online account to check and send your messages. Many providers also have a desktop application which you can use for faxing.

3. Complete Portability. You can send and receive your messages from any mobile device such as a smart phone or laptop, as long as they are connected to the web. This means your business is no longer confined to the office or office hours.

4. Less Clutter. Mainly because all your messages are in digital form, they can be easily stored online or on your computer. No more rumbling throw a pile of old faxes to find the one you want. All your important messages are just a click away.

5. No Dedicated Phone Line. Since everything is handled online and through your computers, there’s no need for an extra fax phone line. This means starting up a business or company can be done much cheaper. There is also no need to purchase a fax machine.

6.Fax Broadcasting. You can import your contact lists and send a single fax to many recipients at once with a few clicks of the mouse. Simple and efficient way to contact all your clients or customers.

7. No Junk Faxes. Since we are talking about using email, you can set-up rules to block any unwanted messages or faxes. This will save you a few headaches and a whole lot of time.

8. Corporate Plans. There are corporate fax plans available from most providers and these plans can be custom designed to perfectly match your needs. You can also opt for a virtual PBX service which encompasses voice mail, forwarding and even a virtual receptionist. This again will save you money.

9. Completely Scalable. Online fax services are completely scalable for your business. If you should need to scale up or down, this can be quickly done without the need to install any extra hardware such as fax machines and dedicated phone lines.

10. Competitiveness. Using a faxing system which is directly tied into your computers and the Internet, can be extremely beneficial to say the least. It will also make your company more efficient and competitive simply from the fact your business is open and reachable 24/7, 365 days of the year. If you’re not using it, just keep in mind, your competitor is probably already using it. But again, like any business decision, it’s your call?

The good news is that regardless of the continued massive growth of the Internet, the rules of business haven’t changed – fundamental business strategy still applies. You start with your ideal customer, you find out what their biggest problems are, you then find or create solutions for those problems, and finally you put the solution in front of the customer and the sale is made.

The even better news is that what has changed is our ability to reach more of our next customers at less cost – is it much greater today and is expanding. That comes with its own set of challenges.

When it comes down to it, there are two types of online strategies we can use, 1: free and low-cost, and 2: paid. Free and low-cost go together because even though some of these strategies might be free in terms of cost, they are definitely not free in terms of time. For now, let’s look at the former.

Free and Low-Cost As mentioned before, free and low-cost strategies are those that are extremely inexpensive dollar-wise, and more expensive time wise. The most popular and effective in use today are:

Blogging Every business should have a blog and post at a minimum one article per week. Blogging can help to build or strengthen expert status in your industry; it can show customers that you know what you’re talking about and can really help them. These articles can then be syndicated to a larger audience in social media – Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and others.

Many blogging platforms are free. A great way to start out is using WordPress. Out of the box WordPress has a lot of features – everything you need for a blog. In addition, there are thousands of free plugins you can use to add features to your blog that can enhance the search engine optimization, create contact forms, automatically send blog posts to social media, and many more. If you can’t find what you need for free, there are many paid plugins for less than $100 that also come with support.

Social Media As business becomes increasingly personal once again, participation in social media is a must. This doesn’t mean you have to sit on Twitter all day and watch the tweets roll in – that would be a complete waste of time. Rather, you can set up custom searches for the main keywords of your business, and engage with the people that use them. You never know when you’ll be talking to your next customer or raving fan.

There is a new breed of customer relationship applications maturing in the category of social CRM. The purpose of these applications, typically web-based, are to help you cut through all the “useless” chatter on social media so you can focus in on potential customers. One such application currently in beta is Commun.it.

Email Marketing A cliche in Internet Marketing is, “the money is in the list.” What is meant by this is that if you have a relationship with a large group of people via email, you can make buying recommendations that they will act on, due to the relationship. For the most part that’s true.

A great use of email marketing is for lead nurturing. Not everyone that visits a website is ready to buy. Some people are looking for information and some are comparing competitive offerings. If you’re lucky some will come with credit card in hand; but most aren’t. That’s where lead nurturing comes into play.

With most email marketing solutions you can set up an automatic sequence of emails to go out to your email list on a schedule – this is an autoresponder. You can mix in broadcast emails that provide timely information to your subscribers. To get people to join your list you offer then an ethical bribe such as a video, ebook, or other piece of information that offers value. Regardless, the point is to deliver a steady flow of value that builds the relationship to the point where the prospect follows your call to action and makes a purchase.

search engine optimization (SEO) This is the stuff of myths and legends, and really seems to be a dash of science with a heaping tablespoon of alchemy. Without going overboard though it comes down to a basic principle: Google is in the business of providing its customers (searchers) with the most relevant results so they keep coming back, seeing and clicking on ads, and Google makes billions. So what does relevant mean? It means that the information and experience you provide around a set of keywords or phrases is better than anyone else.

Is that a bit of an over simplification? Yes, but we could talk about SEO for months and not go anywhere. So for now, keep in mind that relevant content and user experience is what Google cares about; provide that to people and you’ll rise in the rankings.

Which Way To Go? With all these options it’s difficult to see which way to go. And the answer isn’t “it depends” but rather in what order to do everything you’ve read about. And here’s the answer to that:

The Final Step With this primer in hand, there’s only one thing left to do – go make it happen! Start a blog, join Twitter, create a free report and set up an email list, and start writing content for your ideal customer. Do those four things and you’ll be well on your way to making many more sales.

First, perhaps one of the main underlying reasons has to do with the technology itself. Online fax services combines two of the most important tech advances in the modern era: computers and the Internet. This new way of faxing uses your computers and your web connection to send and receive all your faxes. This popular combination is very powerful once you consider what “computers” and the “Internet” have done for the workplace and for the world in general. Online faxing takes advantage of both of these technological advancements to give you or your company a much more convenient and a much more robust faxing system.

Second, mobility or our need to be mobile, is one of the most over-riding features of our modern lives. People simply want to be connected to their families, friends and their businesses no matter where they are. We have seen this need fulfilled by the introduction of cell phones, smart phones, netbooks, laptops, ipads… all keeping us completely wired and tuned in to all that matters to us. Internet fax services fits in neatly and is completely compatible with all these portable devices and our mobile lifestyles.

>

Third, another underlying reason why these web based fax services have become so popular, comes down to pure economics. In these unsettled and trying economic times, everyone is looking for ways to cut corners and save money, especially on business expenses which have to be paid each month. Online faxing is simply much more cheaper than conventional faxing. You don’t need to install or pay for an extra dedicated fax phone line since everything is done through your computers and your email system. This is also paperless faxing so you don’t need to buy any papers, inks and toners. You don’t even need to buy a traditional fax machine. All this makes online fax very cost-effective and less expensive to run than a conventional fax machine.

Fourth, another issue concerns competition and availability, using an online fax system means your business is open around the clock, 365 days of the year. You can receive your faxes at any time and from any location, as long as you’re connected to the web. If your company or business depends upon faxing to offer promotions, stay in contact with clients or to bring in sales… one can easily see why using an Internet fax service will make your company more competitive. In these uncertain times, having any advantage, no matter how small – does make a difference to your company’s bottom line.

Fifth, other reasons have to do with security and privacy. When using an Internet fax program you have much more security since your faxes can be encrypted when you send them. You also have secure online storage where only you can access them in your online account with your username and password. Your faxes can also be filled and stored on your own computer for easy private access. Only you can read your messages, unlike in the office setting, where anyone walking by can read a sensitive fax.

Lastly, when it is all said and done, perhaps one of the main reasons why online fax has become so popular simply has to do with convenience and ease-of-use. Internet fax is extremely easy to do, as simple as sending an email. It is also extremely convenient to use, you can send and receive your faxes from anywhere and at any time. This great convenience makes online fax an invaluable communication tool for the modern workplace and the modern workforce. For those employees working from home, it is ideal, for those working in the field such as construction workers, engineers, real estate agents and salespeople, it is ideal. For those operating any kind of business, big or small, online fax is ideal.

So are you or your company using an online fax service?

Consistency: Uniformity is one of the most shared and respected attributes of our mind, a place in which our thoughts and actions congregate. Appearing fickle is not something that anybody wants because it makes them appear unstable, weak and controlled, whereas steadiness is very much unlike all of that and is usually associated with honesty and integrity. Even though your readers might not be in agreement with you from the start, you should be reliable in your writing, so you can sway their opinions. Then make your writing more effective by backing it up with applicable verification, all while you come back to your opening line in which you have already been in agreement. This method works wonders when you use it, so long as you do not go overboard with it. I’ve discovered that tips mentioned in the following paragraphs are beneficial to Big Affiliate Profits. Social Proof: Taking a peek at the others as an illustration to use, to do and steer clear of something is a psychological force to be prepared for; this has become a necessity in our decision making process, as it is something we do almost every single day of our lives. It is something so commanding, that it controls whether you do something for good or bad. After viewing testimonials, case studies and referrals by people, you can check out the most apparent instances of social proof. You can tell that social proof is what is compelling the social media today. On the other hand, if you prepare everything the right way and include social proof in it, it could range from being either an expert review or one in which you drop names. If you wish to observe how promotions by using this kind of marketing can rank then take a look at Profit Insiders.

Passion: Now, the truth of the matter is, you will find it really hard to convince someone to do something, if you do not already believe in it yourself. This is the reason it is essential for you to discover your enthusiasm for what you are writing and then your readers can see the same enthusiasm in your writing. Talking others into making a particular move or asking them to make a decision just by compelling them with your words requires you to be compelled by your own crazes from the beginning. Out of the project you are working on, find something that is helpful and put that into your writing. You will be able to be more persuasive when you realize this is something you really want. Persuasive writing that is futile if it is just a hodgepodge of words and thoughts that spread out, as opposed to pointing the reader in a single direction. In closing, if you wish to excel at influential writing, stay ever persistent and push yourself a little further every time you write.

The philosophy behind the raw food diet is that raw food offer the highest levels of nutrients and are the least processed foods. There is some truth behind this statement. By not eating processed food you cut down on extra sugars and salts going into your system. These two things are directly linked to weight gain and heart problems. Food which have been processed are commonly heated.

Heated food tends to break down vitamins that exist within the food, making them less nutritous. Two examples of vitamins effected are thiamine and folic acid. Both play important parts with our DNA syntesis, blood sugar chemistry, and neurological systems. Heating the food also tends to destroy enzymes that are naturally present in the food.

Also take into consideration that those who eat raw foods are often also very supportive of eating organic.  Organic eating reduces your chances of consuming chemicals which may have been sprayed on during production. This is also a healthier choice for both you and the environment in general.

By increasing your vegetables, fruits, and nuts you can directly benefit your heath by lowering your cholesterol, improving your heart health, and reducing your weight. You don’t have to become a vegetarian but adding one raw vegetarian meal a week can be worth it. For those interested in eating this way there are a number of wonderful resources.

Regardless of what you’re trying to sell, you really can’t sell it without “talking” with your prospective buyer.  An in attempting to sell anything on the Internet, the sales letter you send out is when and how you talk to your prospect.

All winning sales letters “talk” to the prospect by creating an image in the mind of the reader.  They set “the scene” by appealing to a desire or need; and then they flow smoothly into the “visionary” part of the sales pitch by describing in detail how “wonderful” life will be and, how “good” the prospect is going to feel after he’s purchased your product.  This is the “body or guts” of a sales letter.

Overall, a winning sales letter follows a time-tested and proven formula:  1)  Get his attention  2)  Get him interested in what you can do for him  3)  Make him desire the benefits of your product so badly his mouth begins to water  4)  Demand action from him – tell him to click the right button or send for whatever it is you’re selling without delay – any procrastination on his part might cause him to lose out.  This is called the “AIDA” formula (Attention, Interest, Desire and

Action) –  it works.

On your website, your sales page should be the length of what it would be

if were doing a mailing, or longer if you’re using bullets to emphasize benefits to build the desire.  Of course on the Internet you don’t have to worry about letterhead stationery or the cost of postage, which is a considerable savings.  If, however, you want to also do a mailing campaign then the following would apply.  The sales letters in mailings that pull in the most sales are almost always two pages with 1 1/2 spaces between lines.  For really big ticket items, they’ll run at least four pages. – on an 11 by 17 sheet of paper folded in half.  If your sales letter is only two pages in length, there’s nothing wrong with running it on the front and back of one sheet of 8 1/2 by 11 paper.  However, your sales letter should always be on letterhead paper – your letterhead printed, and including your logo and business motto if you have one.

Regardless of the length of your sales letter, it should do one thing, and that’s sell, and sell hard!  If you intend to close the sale, you’ve got to do it with your sales letter.  You should never be “wishy-washy” with your sales letter. You do the actual selling and the closing of that sale with your sales letter – any brochure or circular you send along with in your mailing will just reinforce what you say in the sales letter.

There’s been a great deal of discussion in the past few years regarding just how long a sales letter should be.  A lot of people are asking:  Will people really take the time to read a long sales letter?  The answer is a simple and time-tested yes indeed!  Surveys and tests over the years emphatically prove that “longer sales letters” pull even better than the shorter ones, so don’t worry about the length of your sales letter – just make sure that it sells your product for you!

The “inside secret” is to make your sales letter so interesting, and “visionary” with the benefits you’re offering to the reader, that he can’t resist reading it all the way through.  You break up the “work” of reading by using short, punchy sentences, underlining important points you’re trying to make, with the use of subheadlines, indentations and even the use of a second color, and leaving lots of white space around it.  On your website, the sales letter should run down the middle of the page so the viewer doesn’t have to keep adjusting the screen to see the whole sentence. This is very distracting and more apt to send that client to another website than losing patience reading a long letter.

Relative to the brochures and circulars you may want to include in your mailing with your sales letter – providing the materials you’re enclosing are of the best quality, they will generally reinforce the sale for you.  But, if they are of poor quality, look cheap and don’t compliment your sales letter, then you shouldn’t be using them.  Another thing, it will definitely classify you as an independent home worker if you hand-stamp your name/address on these brochures or advertising circulars instead of having them printed.

Whenever possible, and so long as you have really good brochures to send out, have your printer run them through his press and print your name/address – even your telephone number and company logo – on them before you send them out.  The thing is, you want your prospect to think of you as his supplier – the company – and not as just another independent entrepreneur.  Sure, you can get by with less expense but you’ll end up with fewer orders and in the end, less profits.

Another thing that’s been bandied about and discussed from every direction for years is whether to use a post office box number or your street address.  Personally, I don’t like Post Office Boxes in a business address – because it transmits an aura of instability or temporary location.  If your business is run from home, get a mail box from a post box vendor that has a street address.  Then your address looks like, 1234 Willow Lane, #567, Your Town, and the box number could appear to the reader as a Suite number.  However, if you live in a remote area where your address is 7890 Main St., RFD 42, Box 123, Your Town, then you have no choice but to include both your post office box number, AND, your street address on your sales letter.  When doing it strictly for your website, put your street address, telephone number, and email address at the bottom of the page.  More than likely, the customer will contact you by email, but it conveys dependability if that Internet buyer sees that you’re willing to give your address. This kind of open display of your honesty will give you credibility and dispel the thought of you being just another “fly-by-night” mail order company in the mind of your prospect.

Above all else, you’ve got to include some sort of ordering page or coupon if you’re mailing.  The coupon has to be as simple and as easy for the prospect to fill out and return to you as you can possible make it. The order page on your website should already be filled out, with perhaps just the shipping left to choice.  If your product is an eBook or software to be instantly downloaded, then you don’t have any options to be chosen.   A great many sales are lost because this order coupon is just too complicated for the would-be buyer to follow.  Don’t get fancy!  Keep it simple, and you’ll find your prospects responding with glee.

Should you or shouldn’t you include in your mailing a self-addressed reply envelope?  There are a lot of variables, as well as, pros and cons to this question. Overall, when you send out a “winning” sales letter to a good mailing list, a return reply envelope will increase your response tremendously.

Tests of  late seem to indicate that it isn’t that big a deal or difference in responses relative to whether you do or don’t pre-stamp the return reply envelope.  Again, the decision here will rest primarily on the product you’re selling and the mailing list you’re using.  Our recommendation is that you experiment – try it both ways – with subsequent mailings and decide for yourself from there.

Post Some Testimonials: people who do business with you purchase your products based on one thing: trust. Getting your existing customers to trust you won’t be hard because they already know who you are and the quality that you have to offer. But what about the people who haven’t yet bought something from you? This is the reason testimonials are so important: they support your reputation while also boosting your sales and profits. When your potential customers see that past buyers talk highly of you and your products, they will be more inclined to buy from you. So make sure you leverage the feedback that you get from your customers as much as you can. Allow your readers to access “insider” information for free especially if it’s something they’ll pay for elsewhere. He who is able to provide high quality information at no cost wins, and gets to grow his business. Don’t go overboard with the free information.

There are many routes you can take you just need to have a plan to unleash.You can use Internet marketing to promote new product launches such as Auto Traffic Tycoon.

Do Not Discount the Telephone: as the Internet has become more widespread, more and more business professionals depend on online communication tools like social networking and e-mail. Of course, for true connection with sales prospects and potential business partners, you need to be able to use the phone. Get in touch with people through the phone and explain to them how your service can prove to be beneficial and why you’re calling them. Your telephone can be a great marketing tool especially when used alongside your other marketing strategies. Persistency Pays: If you’re not going to be persistent in your efforts then it will become very difficult for you to grow your online business. No matter how many roadblocks you face, your eyes should be fixed on the progress of your business.

In summation, from this article we can see clearly how it is the little things that really matter when it comes to building a business and helping it grow. Most of these things are ridiculously simple to do but most business owners still shy away from them because they think that trying anything even a little bit new is simply too risky to undertake. So, when you really want to kick your business up a notch, you need to focus on making sure you take the right steps to do so.

You can use Internet marketing to promote new product launches such as Auto Traffic Nirvana.
