Your White Rock Reporter Johan Sandstrom thanking you for your attention.

As our technology has evolved, so have marketing techniques. As a result, now more than ever it is really difficult to reach out to new customers. The modern consumer is not only bombarded with ads on TV and the Internet, but they also have to worry about scams.

The advent of the Internet has been both a curse and a blessing. Hackers and spammers are around every corner it seems, and they have made it so that legitimate online entrepreneurs have a tough time doing business because many potential customers have been tainted by their practices. Currently, most of the consumers in the market are wary of everyone.

If you’ve met with resistance using old techniques, you might want to try out video email. Video email software, such as Talk Fusion, is a new way of doing things that often takes customers by surprise. If you’d like to send video email to reach out to new and existing customers, you may be wondering if it really works. Let’s see if it bears up under scrutiny.

What About Text-based Email?

To answer the above question, you first have to ask yourself, how has it been working out for you? It has its place for sure. I have been sending text based emails for years. But what if you could increase your conversion rate a couple of points by moving from text to video emails? It’s an interesting question.

With all the detritus online today, it’s no surprise that web surfers don’t read such emails and don’t click the links. The reality of it is that most such emails end up in spam folders and simply get deleted. So how should you get prospective customers to click the links in your emails when they are so apprehensive?

The Modern Solution

First, you have to come to grips with the fact that no one is going to cold click your links, so you might as well just stop doing that altogether. Instead of text emails, consider video email. Programs like Talk Fusion allow you to stick a video still in the email for potential customers to click on. When they do so, your full video opens externally for viewing.

Arguably, the best thing about Talk Fusion is that it was designed for us non-IT gurus. It is intuitive and made so that anyone who knows their way around a computer can figure it out. With even children nowadays habitually uploading cell phone videos to YouTube, there really is no excuse for such programs being hard to use.

Cost Analysis

Text-based email is pretty much free, that’s true. So maybe you are hesitant about the cost of video mail software. But, you have to think about what you are getting out of your old emails, which is probably not nearly what you could. So to give you more information, let’s explain the cost of video email software in more detail. To initiate your video email endeavor, you’ll need:

• BombBomb or InstantVMail (which costs $25 a month)
• GoToWebinar or WebEx (which costs $75 a month)
• TrafficGeyser (which costs $97 a month)

That all tallies up to $197 a month. The alternative is Talk Fusion, which costs $35 a month. It does require you to pay $250 up front, but in the long term it’s worth the money you’ll save.

In conclusion, Talk Fusion is the video email solution for increasing revenues, personalized marketing, lead generation, product demonstrations, quotations, improving customer retention, testimonials, unboxing presentations, thank yous, and increasing conversion rates.

James Martell, expert affiliate marketer, President of Net Guides Publishing Inc., and successful author and host of the Affiliate Marketers SUPER Handbook is always on the lookout for new technology that will boost conversions and give him and his students an edge over the competition. He was one of the first to use audio as a sales tool on the web and quickly latched onto the power of video.

Video is king:

• YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world and hosts millions of hours of video that’s watched by millions of users.
• In split testing, video sales letters have been found to convert over 400% more often than text only letters.
• Only 1% of people have ever received a video email
• Video is easier (and cheaper) to make now than ever before

Imagine if you could harness the power of video and put it in your customer’s inboxes.

In this edition of Coffee Talk, James speaks with Bryan Conley, owner of a brick and mortar window tinting service, who did just that–literally saving his business and propelling it to a new level of profitability!

Recession-Proof Your Income with Direct Marketing Video Emails and Autoresponders from Talk Fusion

Bryan’s residential and commercial window tinting service fell on hard times in 2007 when the housing bubble burst. His customers dried up. His revenue fell. He was marketing in magazines and newspapers but none of it was getting results.

Then he found Talk Fusion—a web-based suite of 8 different marketing tools including video emails and autoresponders. Bryan began using video emails to thank current clients and those new prospects who had requested a quote . . . and that was all it took.

The clients began placing second and third orders and referring him to friends and neighbors. The prospects converted more easily and more often than ever–sometimes choosing Bryan’s business over another because of the video alone!

Now Bryan is making more money than he ever has in the worst economy he has ever faced—even without print advertising!

Video Emails for Internet Marketers

Bryan’s business is brick and mortar and he’s making a killing. Think of what video emails could do in the hands of a skilled Internet marketer. The potential to make a massive profit is huge.

Listen in on this edition of Coffee Talk as James combines his years of experience in Internet marketing with Talk Fusion’s video email service to come up with a handful of creative ways Internet marketers could effectively (and profitably) use video emails, including:

• Converting new prospects
• Retaining current customers
• Extending the sale process over weeks or even months if necessary
• Putting a human face on your brand
• Building confidence, loyalty and trust
• Building brand
• And, of course, direct selling

The list is endless. This edition of Coffee Talk with James Martell will teach you how to leverage the power of video into higher conversion and retention rates which equal more profit for less effort!

This car dealership is know for its friendly attitude and professional employees and staff and foremost for its great number of regular customers/repeat buyers. Most interesting vehicles from a functional and quality standpoint. Energy efficient, ‘savings and keepers’.

Do test drive your Nissan, any model, in the vicinity of White Rock, or South Surrey. Marine Drive and uptown White Rock will be pleased to accomodate your party or prospective car buyers. Welcome in groups as well.

Yes, I am speaking of Nissan, both models Murano, Altima qualify to be ranked amongst the most desirable cars one can wish for in the market place.

Hyundai, Ford, Mazda, Chevrolet are other contenders but few rank in the scale of class as I see in Nissan brand of cars and service. With a service bay and well trained personnel of mechanics and operators of special equipment I leave to the public and visitors to judge and leave their verdict. In my books Nissan rank 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. King George is a well situated dealership in newly built premises; showroom, offices and service, repair and spare parts departments.

Essential qualities are safety for both driver and passenger[s], airbags, tires, brakes, locks [safety latches for children] and lights.

Safe stopping distances, desired motor power for acceleration and desired speed as designated by the driver are important factors when selecting your transportation and vehicle. Practical brake systems like ABS and sensors will make comfort part of the driver’s and passenger’s experience.

A vehicle that can be seen in traffic by other drivers and pedestrians is for the good of all on roads, tracks, sidewalks and highways. Alternative energy sources are coming into play these days.

Hybrids. and solid state electrical cars are soon considered common vehicles with a mission; to transport people quietly, at moderate speed and safely and comfortably across the land.; country side or cityscapes.

Reputable car and repair dealerships do have ambitions and count on the cooperation as displayed by the local population in local areas like White Rock, Ocean Park, Langley, Surrey, Semiahmoo Peninsula. This is especially important when car owners are exposed for long periods of consistent riding and travel far distances to their destinations, by car.. Nissan’s different models suits most and the diverse clientele you can find in a Nissan car dealership like King George Nissan.

Celebrating a new car and model in the beginning of a new year is a feast and exuberant experience. The smell of upholstery in leather or fresh brand new textile fabric and new auto components in general make this special day of buying a new car a very special day for all concerned.
Make it a family day and travel the perimeters of our resort and urban communities. Select the most exciting color combinations for your new Nissan…’be seen’ ’cause that’s part of the safety aspect.

The friendly personnel and service attendants on duty will take care of your needs. And remember these days.
