This article will explain the new Haul viral videos and how local businesses can use these to promote themselves.
On YouTube, there are a new set of viral videos called ?Haul? videos. These are videos posted by everyday people talking about the stuff they bought on their most recent shopping spree. Some name each items with cost, some are just showing off the items they bought. Some people are showing off how much they saved. There are a few videos that get more then 200,000 viewers them. This could be a treasure trove for local businesses.
What is a viral video? Viral videos are videos that become popular on their own. People start sharing them over and over and they get huge numbers of people viewing them. When day time TV shows are in need of material, they often will find the people who have popular videos and have them on the shows for a short 3 minute bit or quick interview. Some people have been able to get commercial contracts, one singer was signed with Justin Timberlake and one guy got a contract with YouTube for over $100,000. There are a few marketing agencies that will try and sell you a viral video. The truth about viral videos is that YOU do not get to choose that they are viral. The public does. No one can guarantee that they will be shared by others. They can only hope that a video becomes viral. The truth is the people who do have videos go viral often have put up hundreds of videos before they were noticed. The one hit wonders are people who really do not care if the video is viral or not. Those who have something to market work long and hard before something actually happens. Before you spend time and money on viral videos, you need to understand this concepts and how it works. Do not let marketing professionals talk you into something that is a total waste of money.
How could a Haul Video help local businesses?
Haul videos could be great for local retailers. If you are a local retailer, you could have a person who is a regular shopper talk about the deals and sales they got or show off the unique things they purchased. They can then talk a little bit about the store and where the location is so that more people who want those same kinds of things could shop with there also. This could work for clothing retailers; make up stores, drug stores, antique stores, shoe stores and any store that has collectibles. By having a few people make these Haul videos, you could create more traffic to your website and into your actual store. You can upload them to your You Tube site and see what happens. It?s not guaranteed however, it makes sense to take advantage of this particular trend on You Tube.

This is a movie review!
I think the first one on my blog!
Ryan Allis sent me his new movie to check out. I love entrepreneurs, I love to hear their war stories, their losses, their big wins, their small wins, everything about this. This movie is right up my alley.
Work Your Way Up Movie
Ryan Allis has put together a good movie that explains entrepreneurism and what it is to be an entrepreneur. He covers the mind, set and even features successful entrepreneurs who not only tells their own stories but also gives advice on how they made strategic changes. If you have never been in business you need to watch this. BEFORE you open your doors. It will give you lots of food for thought.

In this article I am going to show you three ways to operate a debt settlement company (DSC). Learn these three ways to get your DSC off the ground and up and running in an ethical yet profitable manner.
These are the three ways:
1) Learn how to qualify your clients for a Debt Settlement (DS) plan that will pay off all the credit cards plus your fee in a reasonable period of time;
2) Learn the proper way to sell and advertise your services without creating deceptive practices claims;
3) Offer your services in an ethical manner following TASC principles.
Lets take a closer look at these 3 ways:
1) Learning how to qualify clients for a DS plan:
This first element is likely the most important aspect you will need to learn when handling DS clients. This is the primary service that you will provide to your client. As part of this service, your will also explain how the program is administered and how we will be making contact with the creditor to settle the debt for 50% or less than what is owed.
2) Learn the proper way to sell and advertise your DS services. It’s very important to know what you can and cannot do while you are advertising or selling your services to the public in this business. One wrong step and you’ll have plaintiff lawyers and the Fair Trade Commission (FTC) knocking on your door. Seek out ways to get educated about how to stay out of trouble when marketing and describing your DS services.
3) Offer your DS services pursuant to TASC Principles. TASC is an organization that oversees debt settlement companies. A good DSC will abide by TASC rules and guidelines and this is all done to protect both the client and your company. Good DSCs will not do anything that would put them in jeopardy of losing their good standing and accreditation with TASC.
