Hey there! I just love your way of getting things done.
Here´s my question: is it necessary to start with written text only and afterwards introduce videos?
Are the articles a necessary step or one could just start a site directly with videos and some info?

Thank you so much for putting in all this work and hey…for being in my life 🙂

Derek, you yourself have said that you are aren’t the greatest writer. Even so, the authenticity came through. But to make it better, you started podcasting – and it was great. Then you started videos – and they were even greater. But this TV thing is what you were born to do!

Derek
I watched the fist 2 videos before reading this post – well done. Clearly video is he way to go today and more people are doing it. But you’re doing it in style – professionally produced and entertaining. I’ll definitely be watching out for the next one

I just started a video blog to support my main web-store which sells middle to top men’s shaving and grooming products, razors, soaps, aftershaves etc.

Its not a new thing for me, I started a business back in 2005 that made on-line product videos, we made video for many of the largest consumer electronic companies and streamed them on the big retail websites, I sold out of that last year and then looked around for a new business, which is what I have now settled on but I knew that video would be a major part of any on-line business that I wanted to do.

I saw what a difference having a video about a product could do for the sales, Dell was one of our customers and they ran the A/B tests which confirmed a noticeable increase in sales when a video was on the products page.

Now my challenge is to use the video to not only raise the profile of what is a new website with virtually no traffic by using the SEO link between Youtube where they are hosted and Google but also to build a video hub for shaving and grooming products and techniques, you would surprised at how obsessive men can get about there hobbies, well may not so surprised :-), you should see the discussions on the shaving forums.

As for making the videos I use a similar white background effect and the whole setup which includes a Panasonic HDC-SD900 full HD prosumer camera and Video tripod, 4 x Studio florescent lights, white vinyl roll background on stands and lapel microphone comes in at about £1500 or about $2200 USD but you could get similar results for less (not including computer and editing software), believe me you can get quite good at filming and editing by your self if you have to.

True about the pricing levels. Before getting this newsletter the struggle to get customers to buy my all-inclusive dinner package that included wine was painful.

Now I will give them the option to byo and another that includes the wine. Looking forward to benefiting from the change. BAM!

Thanks
