I am experimenting with an online tool that allows users to produce animated shorts and post them to a number of sites, including YouTube.
The online tool is xtranormal.com. They are in beta presently and there’s no charge to play around. When they launch, beta users will get preferred pricing for a short period of time. That’s a good marketing idea.
I’m pleased with what I’ve been able to do up to this point. it would be nice if the final version had a way to add titles and credits. As I will be using it to promote my consulting practice, I want to have phone number and email shown on screen.
My strategy, as it stands right now, is to develop a series of animated and live videos that tell the Jim Seybert Story in a way that printed text can not. Doing this will give web visitors a choice of reading the material or listening to it. There’s value in providing more than one entry point.
Jim now I KNOW you have a sense of humor!!
One lesson learned long ago was to resist the temptation to take myself too seriously.
My strategy is to use these little animations sparingly to catch folk’s attention and to plant seeds of interest in my personal brand.
Thanks Glenn
