Hey that’s fantastic Ron! Maybe we could do business together one day – I do have lots of clients who have asked me about video production. And you’re right, people simply don’t have time to read very much and videos have the potential to make a much larger impact – take the recent Old Spice campaign on YouTube for example. In 3 days, it became the most viral series of videos in history.

Thanks for the comment Natalie, and I totally agree. I love to work with people who already get the benefits of Social Media. My passion is also finding people who’s businesses could be doing so much better and helping them get to that point. I love to prove it to them!

It is sad but true that many people still see it as a time sucking hole.

Not until they experience the benefits of true connections, information sharing, increased business, personal discovery and a global perspective will they truly value all that social media tools have to offer.

Mind you I’d prefer to engage with and spend time coaching people who are already embracing it rather than trying to convince pessimists. Keep on rocking!

Hi, Courtney,

I enjoyed the email I juust received about social marketing. Imagine a business person say they rely on the yellow pages! When you get the opportunity please visit the Johnson News Network site – JNN – and see if our video would be beneficial to you (even in light of the dark age of the internet being upon us!).

All best, Ron Johnson

Courtney:

I to have heard all of these issues and to explain that social media is evolving and there is fewer incidential information and more substantive information.

Since you have been working with me, I have linked in with groups and people. My twitter follow and followed has increased from no one a few weeks ago to a few hundred.
