Discovering New Digital Tools for the New Economy

April 29, 2020 by Henry Griner Leave a Comment

Interesting to see how many people are trying out new ways to do conferences and training now that it looks like we will be in this “new economy” for a few months longer. Business people need new tech skills today.

I just saw Viveka von Rosen trying out a Zoom + restream.io meeting setup. Others are popping up on my LinkedIn and Facebook channels all day long.

Even as various states and cities begin to open up and allow businesses to get back to work, I believe it will take a long time before conferences and large meetings take place again. What are your thoughts on that?

  • What digital tools are you learning to use now that you have not used before?
  • How often a day are you using video tools for meetings?
  • Are you doing online conferences or attending conferences online that were planned for in-person events?

Please post your response in the comments area below
so we can see what others are doing.

I started using a couple new tools to help with my video production and promotion work in the past month or two. I use ManyCam.com for video. This gives me the tools I need for recording video or living streaming to multiple sites at once. It includes lowers-thirds for titles, picture in picture and many other features.

I also found one of the tools that YouTube producers are using for making those video thumbnails that POP the look of their videos. I use TubeBuddy.com for those. Besides the thumbnails there are lots of stats and other useful features.

(Note: This page includes links to several tools and resources that I use for my business and to help others. I am an Affiliate or Re-seller of services for these businesses and I receive commission income when you click on these links and place an order. Most have Free get started options. I just wanted to be upfront with you. Thanks for using these businesses.)

How to Live Steam Your Business

March 24, 2020 by Henry Griner Leave a Comment

Today there are many exciting tools that make it easy to live stream not only events but business meetings with teams and individuals. Live Streaming includes both audio such as live phone teleconferences or Podcasts and live video.

This past Sunday, March 22nd, our church used YouTube to run a pre-recorded version of our Sunday church service. Our tech team used the ‘Schedule video publish time’ feature so the video was launched at 9:30am.

To schedule a video to go public, upload it as “Private” and use the “Schedule as public” option. Then, you can set the date, time, and time zone that you want your video to be published. The video will stay private until the scheduled time. Read More Here @Google

Thanks to Dan Peters of DanPetersDesign.com for his production work & Jesse V.

You can also use a video software program like ManyCam to live stream to multiple outlets at one time. I’ve used this to live stream to both YouTube and Facebook live while Podcasting live. This software gives you tools to operate like a small scale TV studio. You can have multiple presets with still images, recorded videos, input live Skype videos and setup lower-thirds with names of your presenters and website URLS.

All of this can be embedded on a WordPress website page with simple tools that can be added to your WordPress website. That is another reason why I love WordPress. Click on the image below to visit my Sample Live Stream Page that has one of the NASA live streams running.

Need help to move forward with your own audio or video production? It’s easier and less costly than you might think. Contact Me for a Free review to get started.

Now Open for Business – Online

March 20, 2020 by Henry Griner Leave a Comment

With the First Day of Spring 2020 on March 19th, Mission Springs Marketing is now again Open For Business.

I’m “On the Road Again” the virtual, online road that is. I kicked off my low key grand opening with a Live Podcast using Podbean.com plus, live-streaming to Facebook and my YouTube channel at the same time. It was a jugging act to say the least. 🙂

This is an amazing time that the United States and the world is moving into with so many changes because of #COVID-19 and all the fear and disruption it is causing for families and businesses.

I am excited and hopeful that I can help ministries, churches, non-profit organizations and business owners to make the changes needed in their organizations to use Digital Marketing resources to stay in contact with their employees and members during this time of transition.

Watch the recording of this video I did yesterday to see how I pulled together Podcasting and live-streaming. It is longer than the Podcast so you will see me working the “switches” and pulling the “levers” to make it come together. A real behind the scenes look at what it takes. Check out my services page for more information.

You can listen to the Podcast for my 70+ and Podcasting show, Episode #7 from the player below.
