Video Email
If you are looking for a hot business to get involved in, video email is a good choice.
Video Email is sweeping the internet, and you probably could have expected this to be the next trend in internet communications.
Other than a typical progression of technological advances, let us explain why video email is becoming so hot?
1. Text only messages are often mis understood by the reader.
2. Plain text emails can get lost in spam filters.
3. People remember more of what they see than what they hear. 30+ % vs. a little over 20% in comparison, according to scientific studies.
4. Your text email can often be viewed as boring and the reader simply doesn't absorb the whole intent, or deletes it before he/she reads it all.
With video email, everyone understands your message. They SEE your facial expressions and body language, and there is no doubt as to your true message. No reading in between the lines.
If you are sending a "cold" email meaning to a recipient that doesn't know you, they will remember you better and probably have a more trusting perspective of you if it is a video email. That can be huge in business.
Video email includes not only the basic email we all are familiar with, but also instant messaging as well as broadcast messaging.
There are various video email providers popping up on the web, however we have located one that is bar none, the best out there. The company is called VM Direct. They offer a service called Hello World that is top of the line and leaves the others in the dust.

For the last several years, this blog has been my primary blog. It hasn't been my only blog, because I've tested several dozen blogs on a variety of blogging platforms. So far, this one has done the best in terms of search engine results and the number of people who have been kind enough to visit and read what I've been saying. You may or may not know, or even care, but this blog is powered by Userland Software's Manilla server. It was developed by Dave Winer and all the team at Userland, and, in many ways, Manilla is still the most powerful blogging platform I've ever used. However, WordPress has come a long way in the last couple of years and now I can do more of what I want to do with a WordPress-powered blog than I can here. It has been a difficult decision. It's always difficult to change horses in mid-stream, and I'm very happy with what I've been able to do here, but there comes a time when you have to change to move forward. So, I've decided that my primary blog will now be 21st Century Affiliate Marketing and I invite you to visit it. If you want to keep up with what I'll be writing there, I invite you to subscribe to the RSS feed or via email. There are two main reasons for the change. (1) There are many plugins available for WordPress that make it very easy to extend the functionality of what I can do. I don't plan to overload 21st Century Affiliate Marketing with a lot of plugins, but I've installed several that help me do what I want to do there. (2) It will be much easier to comment on my articles on 21st Century Affiliate Marketing. Here, you have to register in order to comment and you have to be logged in when you want to do so. Many people over the last few months have told me that they would have replied, but they just don't want to register for another online account. I can appreciate that. I'm getting to that point, myself. On 21st Century Affiliate Marketing, you do not have to register or login in order to leave a comment. I think that's important and is one of the main reasons I'm making the change. One thing I don't like about the default WordPress setup is that all comments are tagged with a "nofollow" code so the search engines won't go to the URL you specify when you make your comment. I think that's wrong. I know that the intent is to reduce comment spam, but I think it's the wrong way to fight it. So, I've installed a "dofollow" plugin so you'll get a bit of linklove when you leave a comment. I've also installed a plugin called CommentLuv that does something very interesting. When you leave a comment, CommentLuv will attempt to find the last thing you wrote on the site you specified. If it can find it, you'll get another link to that last posting. This assumes that the site you enter is a blog or other site with an easily found RSS feed. Finally, I've installed a plugin called SezWho, which links to a service that aggregates your comments on multiple blogs, if they have installed SezWho. SezWho provides a ranking service and you can rank my articles from one star to five stars (five is best), and you can also rank all the comments. I urge you to rank what you read on 21st Century Affiliate Marketing. It's easy. All you have to do is click one of the stars. Click 5 stars if you love it and think it's great, or click one of the others if you don't . Remember, ranking should be based on the quality of the writing and clarity of presentation, not on whether you agree or disagree. However, nobody can dictate what you do. So, regardless of what criteria you use, please rank what you read. And, please comment if you have something to add to the discussion or if you have any questions about the articles or other comments. A blog only comes alive when there is regular interaction. The bottom line is that, on 21st Century Affiliate Marketing, you'll get a minimum of three links when you leave a comment, if you leave the URL of your blog when making a comment. I like to discuss affiliate marketing and related topics, so don't be surprised if I follow the link back to your blog and join in the conversation there. Those are the main reasons for changing my primary blogging efforts to 21st Century Affiliate Marketing. There are others, but I believe these are the most important to you. I hope you'll follow me to the new blog and join in the conversations. I look forward to sharing what I know and learning from you. Thanks for reading this blog over the last few years. I'm not going to close it right now, and I may leave it open and write here now and then, but it won't be nearly as active as 21st Century Affiliate Marketing. Act on your dream! JD
If you don't already know it, I'm a huge fan of Site Build It!, Ken Evoy, and their 5 Pillar Affiliate Program. I've joined and tested hundreds of affiliate programs, and the 5 Pillar Affiliate Program remains at the top of the list. You can earn generous commissions from each sale, and recurring commissions from each annual renewal. This is true lifetime commissions, and the folks at SiteSell go out of their way to make sure you are credited for the sales you make. It is a two-tier program, so you can earn residual commissions each time someone you refer to the affiliate program makes a sale. SiteSell offers outstanding training, a regular newsletter for affiliates, great promotional tools, dedicated affiliate managers, and free members-only forums. The 5 Pillar Program remains one of my highest paying and most reliable income streams. Have you joined, yet? It's free, you know. Come learn more about the Site Build It! 5 Pillar Affiliate Program. If I were going to recommend only one affiliate program, this is it. Act on your dream! JD
As you may already know, Ken Evoy first released the Affiliate Masters Course in early 2000 as an email autoresponder series. Later, it was rewritten and released as a free downloadable PDF ebook. He just announced the newest version of the course that was updated in an August 2008 edition. I just wrote about it on my new primary blog... Ken Evoy releases updated 2008 edition of the Affiliate Masters Course. If you are interested in affiliate marketing and want to learn from one of the best training courses available, go get your copy now. It's a 704 KB download in PDF format. It's free. Act on your dream! JD
Seth Godin, marketing genius, online entrepreneur, and founder of Squidoo.com, has opened a new social networking site, and membership is by invitation only, at this point. He has now opened it for another round of participants. You can get the information on his blog in this post: Are you in the tribe? He has an interesting way to qualify new members and to keep out the tire-kickers. I followed the steps a couple of days ago and was invited to join the Triiibe. (Yes, that's three "i"s in the name. He has an interesting explanation, in that it takes at least three people to become a group, and that the domain he wanted was already taken.) The Triiibe is hosted on Ning.com, a site that I really like and which hosts my Squidoo Marketing community. (If you use Squidoo as part of your marketing mix, you're invited to join us there.) When I made it into Triiibe, I found almost 1,000 other people interested in the same topics I am, which include leadership, tribe building, marketing, and so forth. I'm trying to catch up on some of the conversations and I've met some interesting new people and was happy to see some of my friends there, too. Seth is on to something here, and if you're interested, don't let pre-purchasing his next book stop you from joining the Triiibe. Act on your dream! JD
