How to Create Videos of Your Computer Screen to produce "How To" Videos

The software I use is called Webinaria.

Download Webinaria Here: http://download.cnet.com/Webinaria/3000-13633_4-10705452.html?tag=mncol

I use Webinaria to collect all of the step-by-step screen captures I need to produce my how-to video, and then I edit the combinations of my video captures with Windows Movie Maker to arrange my clips and narrate the clips with my voice overs. I'm a producer, so I was able to take it a step further and add music to my videos using the recording/mixing software I have (Cubase VST). Here's an example of a video produced with Webinaria and Windows Movie Maker...

Use Friend Blaster Pro to Message People on Myspace

Download "Friend Blaster Pro" from www.addnewfriends.com. You can send 50 messages, 50 friend requests, and 50 comments per day, in the trial version of this software.

Opening 5 myspace accounts will allow you to send 250 messages, using the bot for free. If you need to send more per day, then open more accounts in the trial version.

However, it's easier to just pay for it, if you can afford it. To use this bot with one account costs $29.95, and to use it with unlimited accounts costs $59.95 and it's well worth it. Again, I know times are hard and you need a freebie, then sending 50 messages per day from multiple accounts will help you along in your online marketing on myspace. The bot is very easy to use, so I'll just give you a couple of pointers for promoting on myspace.

1. First and foremost, make your myspace design look exciting and new! You can create nice designs at http://www.mystylez.com This site will produce a design code (html code) that you can paste into the about me section of your myspace page(s) to make it hot. Experiment with the designs and variables (such as font colors, table settings, show/hide certain modules, etc.).

2. You will have to create a new email account for each myspace account you open. Save your email and password info in a separate document (Microsoft Excel, or a Word Pad, etc.) . You'll have to put this information into the bot, so it can log into your myspace account.

3. The two major fields of your myspace page is your "about me", and "who I'd like to meet" sections. This is where you have create content that will overwhelm others with an interest to visit your GDI web page. Make your content enthusiastic and real. Talk about yourself and the opportunity.

Copy your mystyles design code in a notepad, and type your about "about me" content beneath the code. When you're ready to publish your new myspace design WITH your "about me", highlight, copy, and paste the entire notepad into the "about me" section of myspace for each myspace account that you have set up. Creating your "who I'd like to meet" info is optional. If you choose to fill out the "who I'd like to meet" section of myspace, type this into a separate notepad, so you can copy and paste it into all of the "who I'd like to meet" sections of your additional myspace accounts. This save a lot of time.

4. When gathering ids - click "save on exit" and click "remove from list after send" - This allows you to resume sending messages to a list of ids, in the event that you close out of the program, before you finish blasting the list.

5. When on the "automated messages" tab - click "don't send to this user if I messaged them before" and check the "send from list" check-box. Next, click the "edit list" tab and create 7 different ads with 7 different subject titles (to stay under the spam radar).

Changing just a few words within the subject, makes each message unique. You don't have to burn the midnight oil creating 7 different marketing ads. Simply numerating the message makes it unique, though I suggest making a few small changes to each message to STAY OUT OF THE SPAM RADAR for sure. Choose 7 different subject titles, as well. Again, a simple word change makes it unique.

Ex: The Best Home Based Business, The Greatest Home Based Business, The Best Online Business, The Best MLM, GDI - The Greatest Company in The World!, etc...

6. You will have to enter captcha codes. However, if you occupy yourself, while sending messages, it may not seem as tedious. You can do things in the background of your computer, while it sends messages - Read a blog/website, conduct some other form of promotion, listen to music, play a game. The bot will play a sound, when that captcha code is reached to notify you.
Enter it in, and go back to what you were doing.

7. As mentioned in an earlier post; Messaging is used for prospecting. Do not post links in your automated messages. Let users ask you for more info, THEN give them the link to GDI (ex: www.GDI.ws/OverpowerRadio) ...saying as little as possible. Let the site do the talking.

* I use www.GDI.ws, because myspace allows their users to gain access to this url.

Have Fun Marketing, Team...

Use Calendar Tabs In Your Email Account To Set Reminders

I use hotmail. However, our email.ws accounts have a calendar that will allow you to set appointments ....one time appointments, and reocurring appointments (daily, weekly, monthly) and it will also send you notifications (reminders) at whatever incriment of time you specify (15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2hrs, etc. before scheduled appointment).

Reminders help to kepp you actively promoting and communicating with your business affiliates. For instance; I set daily email reminders to post 300 messages per day on myspace. I get the reminder at 5am every morning to keep me inspired and focused to spend just 1 hour per day to build my audience. 300 messages per day is 9,000 people I've reached in just 30 days of doing this consistently.

I also send myself reminders to contact my downline in GDI. I'll share my latest ideas and motivation, and knowledge to help my downline with their business. I sent them the link to www.w3schools.com to teach them how to build a website (using HTML, CSS, Javascript, etc.). I'd send them a site with good advertising services and prices, and anything worth to them in a newsletter. I set this reminder once per week. Communication is the key to network marketing. Whether with your upline or downline, don't find yourself out-of-touch. You have a business to build.

Save Your Ads, and Your List of Keywords in a Notepad

When you uploading audio, video, and even when providing contents in text, you may be asked to include tages to make your content searchable within the site and in search engines. Save a list of keywords in a notepad that you can highlight (ctrl + a = select all) copy (ctrl + c) and paste it (ctrl + v) into the relevant field on the upload form. This will save you time.

Type your ads in a notepad and save them, as well. You should be posting the same ad on a variety of ad sites and message boards, and you may have multiple ads to post that vary from one another, according to the ad category they belong in. Have them saved so you can highlight, copy, and past them into the required fields.

Example: I may have (1) An ad to promote GDI, (2) An ad to promote free traffic, (3) An ad to promote my music mp3 streaming or download, (4) An ad to promote a video, (5), An ad to sell intrumental work to potential up and coming recording artists,
