Is your video marketing strategy failing? Here\’s a solution…


 

Do you feel you have successfully incorporated video into your marketing plan to create the most impact?

My name is Alica Dunams, and many of you know me as a author, publisher, and creator of Bestseller in a Weekend. Although my business has celebrated many leaps in bounds in the last year, I feel that because I have not utilized video on a consistent basis, I have not benefited as much as I could have. Case in point, Kelsey Group study found that 55% of people who view a video visit the company’s website and 24% make a purchase as a result of watching. Who wants some of that?
With this in mind, I created Video Marketing Challenge as a space for business owners educate and grown their businesses… through the power of video.
Will it work for me?
Video Marketing Challenge will be a good fit for you if:

  • You want to incorporate video marketing into your business but don\’t know where to start.
  • You want a fun, collaborative environment in which to share your videos.
  • You want more people to comment and share your videos.
  • You want a consistent framework in order to create video on a weekly basis.
  • You want to make better video and learn tips from other business owners who use video as a marketing tool.

What do YOU think of when YOU hear the word \”bestseller\”?

The results are in! I want to thank everyone who participated in my recent informal survey, What do YOU think of when YOU hear the word bestseller? If you don\’t know what I\’m talking about, here\’s the email I sent out to my subscriber list last month…
——–
NAME – really quickly…
My business coach and I are having
a bit of debate about what constitutes
being a BESTSELLING AUTHOR.
At the end of the day, it really
doesn\’t matter what my
business coach and I think –
It only matters what YOU think!
With that, can you take this 30 second
survey so I get the information
straight once and for all!
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JQ6FFMJ
Thanks for you help!
Dedicated to your success,
Alicia Dunams

64.5% people say \”selling a lot of books\” constitutes a bestseller. But what is \”a lot of books\”? 10K, 100K, 1 million? From my experience, to become a Bestseller on Amazon.com in the top-20 category overall you need to move over 500 books in a 24 hour period depending on a number of conditions and moving parts. Yes, the stars must align and you have to be truly strategic to achieve top-20 category bestseller status on Amazon. 54.8% of you think getting on a bestseller list constitutes a bestseller, so which lists matter…
