When this exploding trend becomes even more powerful is when video production company’s like ours, Total Broadcasting Service, really begin earnest marketing to all businesses. We’re already there. But most video production companies still cling to their very expensive shooting and production techniques; which keep many people and businesses holding back on use of video. The technological capabilities now available to us make video interesting, effective and good quality while not costing an entire advertising budget like it used to and like it still does for many.

To this list of Inc. Magazine’s 10 Common Sales Mistakes to Avoid I’ll add one more.

11. Letting your customer walk all over you. We all know the cranky curmudgeon who seems to go through life with the perpetual frown and bad attitude. Here’s a secret- these people know that they’re like this and they use it to intimidate people. Don’t let it bother you. Stand up to them. When they interrupt tell them they interrupted. When they complain about making time for you, remind them that you scheduled the time with them and that your time is valuable too. This type of person is more commonly referred to as a bully. And you know how to get bullies to back down.

When it comes to video- Try, try again.

It’s real easy to give in to the fear of talking on camera and never get around to doing your proper video marketing. One only needs to view a few of your own efforts when you tried but found yourself stumbling over words, or your hair was out-of-place or your make-up wasn’t just right and you gave up saying, “I hate seeing myself on video” or “I’m terrible on camera” or something similar. In this video Real Estate marketing expert Lisa Tremolada makes an easy and succinct point that I think a lot of people forget about.

I’ve recorded myself on video for various tips and advice segments 40-or-50 times in the past couple of years, as you can see here. I never get it right on the first shoot. I usually need 5-6 shoots before I settle on one I like.

Taking the point even further, while video is relatively new to me, I’ve been doing voice recordings professionally since 1985 even when there is no camera and I’m only working with a microphone I seldom bang-out a clean recording on the first shot.

You can do it. Just be more forgiving of yourself and try, try again.
