Friday Inspiration – Make an Effective Marketing Video on a Shoestring Budget

I saw this video on an eBay listing this morning, for a relocatable cabin.
There isn’t actually any video footage in the video – it’s just photos and some simple slides, and some background music.
But it answered a lot of questions I had, and overall I was very impressed.
Goes to show you don’t have to be a Hollywood film producer to get your message across in an effective way. Nor do you need a high budget.
What do you need? A digital camera (or relevant graphics, depending on your business), some background music, presentation software like Powerpoint or Keynote, a way to export/convert your slideshow to a movie file.

Do you really need a website?
With the speed of technology moving so fast, it can sometimes be overwhelming and embarrassing to feel like the only kid on the block without a website. But – honestly – it doesn’t have to be such a big deal.
In this article, my intention is to de-mystify the whole website thing, so you can get your head around whether you really need one, and if you do, then – honestly – why and how fancy does it really have to be?

If Content is king, Design rules the universe
If you’re one of those people who swear black and blue that the way a site looks doesn’t matter if the content is good, I DARE you to visit the site I’m about to link to. Will you survive long enough to actually read any of the content? I didn’t. I’m waiting for the ambulance to take me to the emergency room to fix my bleeding eyes. This site proves once and for all that if Content is king, Design rules the universe. Click only if you don’t have a weak heart (or stomach):- HavenWorks.com
Ouch! Ouch! My poor eyes!

Do the Time Warp to Internet 1996
What was the Internet like back in 1996?
Scary.
This is a funny look back in time. (Bad language warning).
Thank goodness these websites have improved (somewhat) over time.
Just look at McDonalds…

Is your website stuck in a time warp? It might be time for a makeover.
