Hulu breaks the 100+ million vids

Hulu, the joint video website venture from NBC Universal and News Corp has their Hulu.com video website flying high with over 105 million streamed videos last month. That is alot of watching. How many hours is that, talk about tv overload.  The one thing I like about Hulu is it hosts high-quality free streaming movies, TV shows and clips, available to watch when you are. I am glad they are keeping it free.

Now Hulu has signed a deal to run $50 million dollars of advertising revenue on their site. The ads will be from other NBC and News Corp properties, also advertising was purchased from other outside media outlets.  Maybe I need to ad videos to get on the traffic gravy train.

Sometimes Non-Digital Marketing makes Sense

One of my on-going projects is a screen room kit do-it-yourself business.  It’s website generates leads that inturn generates sales.  I have been marketing HomeLivingSpaces.com on the internet for several years now, getting about 500 screen room kit leads a year. That is pretty good.  This type of business makes sense to  marketing in the non-digital marketing world.  Regular marketing works well when screen room kits are advertised in newsprint, magazines, billboards, signs and magnet signs on side of trucks or cars.  Also flyers can generate leads of this type of business.  To get the most leads we have started using alot of the non-digital marketing.  In business it not how you drive it is how you arrive. If the lead if from a digital source or a non-digital source does not matter, what matter is getting the sale.

Non-Digital Marketing still works, but do all to get the maximum amount of leads

Advertisers becoming Googlized

The Internet Power Google as a new service for advertisers called AdPlanner. The new service will give advertisers a clearer picture of where they should be looking to place ads online. Pick me, Pick me. The Google Adplanner will suggest a list of websites, using user demographics that will suggest a list of websites Google recommends an advertiser where it should place their ads. I believe they missed something, pick me.

The Google AdPlanner will combine information from it’s vast array of resources, Google search data, opt-in anonymous Google Analytics data, opt-in external consumer panel data, and other third-party market research. The millions of user’s data is then ran though the famous computer algorithems with no personally-identifiable information giving its results

Google Ad Planner is designed for advertisers and ad agencies. The tool gives you .csv exports, MediaVisor exports, and demographic estimates. I am sure this will be the tool that dominates them all.

Latest technology in Trade Show Displays

Trade shows: If you have every been to a trade show, I have been to a few, they are mostly busy, pushy and shovie. I really like investigating and getting the new products along with all the freebies that trade show vendors give out, I usually will need a separate cart to carry the freebies around.

There is a lot to setting up a trade booth. We setup at a home trade show for years, the flooring of booth, furniture and counter stand or tables, brochure racks, and lets not forget the fish bowl for giving away something to collect leads.

Digital Promotion with DVD / CD

Digital Promotion

Over the years I have been involved with businesses that promote itself for awareness and to get more customers. All types of business can promote itself with digital CD’s or DVD’s. It is very inexpense and looks professional.

A compact disc (CD) can be used to store digital audio, video, and data in various formats. CD mastering differs from burning, as the pits and lands of a digital mastered CD are moulded into the CD, rather than being ‘burn marks’ (phase changes) by a CD burner.

Their is also the process of DVD authoring, digital DVD authoring describes the process of creating a DVD video that can be played on a DVD player. DVD authoring software must conform to the specifications set by the DVD Forum group in 1995.

Strictly speaking, DVD authoring is a separate process from digital MPEG encoding, but most modern DVD authoring software have a built-in encoder (though separate encoders are still used when better quality or finer control over compression settings is required).

Most authoring applications are for video DVDs only; they do not support the creation of DVD-Audio discs.

Stand-alone DVD Replication units generally have basic authoring functions, though the creator of the DVD has little to no control over the layout of the DVD menus, which generally differ between models and brands.

Several times there were companies that had made a digital CD or DVD to promote their organization or business, most were from 100 to 10,000 which would be a Large run DVD replication. We used a digital device machine that would copy the CD/DVD, then pull it out, stack in the complete stack and then load another CD/DVD to burn, it was very slow, so you could kick it off and leave it. Then end result produced some great digital promotion devices for you business.
