DW Video took a four hour seminar and produced a short three minute promotional video on WHY the Pyramid Campus is needed.
The Pyramid Campus uses a seminar video to produce a promotional piece on transforming education and the need for their campus. DW Video captured from the morning seminar segments that tell the story of WHY. Why is it important to transform education. WHY this paradigm shift is important for our young people.
The morning session included Kim from the Department of Defense (for reasons out of our control we could not use her) and Nancy Conrad a national leader in STEM education as well as an author, publisher, entrepreneur and public speaker. Along with Michigan business leaders Fred Keller and Bob Bieri talk about transforming education and why we need The Pyramid Campus.

Producing Video Testimonials for GRIN… “these are affordable”, states DW Video Owner Duane Weed.
At DW Video we love producing video testimonials and promoting Michigan. We are working with the Grand Rapids Inventors Network promoting the organization and its members. “Developing a product is a marathon” states John a member of the Grand Rapids Inventors Network. John a Michigan inventor (Johnny Ball) believes you have to believe in your product 100 percent and not give up. The networking possibilities are a great benefit of the organization.
Our approach when producing video testimonials is to keep it real. These do not have to be expensive and in the case for how we produced the videos for GRIN, the production is hundreds of dollars… not thousands. Here is the video we produced:

Produce your seminar videos and use YouTube as a platform to reach your audience.
Seminar Videos are one way you can share your expertise to prospects and customers. Lately we have been doing a lot of work in the health care area, however the concepts go to any business.
When we say seminar videos this can mean a number of things. One, you do not need to go out on a speaking tour and have DW Video capture all your seminars. Sidenote: Yes, we can do this if you are a keynote speaker. Second, The seminar videos can be done in your place of business or at our studio in Howard City. It is all about feeding the Google Beast, your prospects and customers with good quality information.
These videos do not need to be expensive and done with a high production budget. They need to be clean with excellent audio. Meaning, do not use the camera microphone, use a lav or overhead mics to capture the audio.
John Hopkins Medicine uses seminar videos to inform and educate. Creation Today uses seminar videos to provide information to their prospects as well. Dr. Harpreet Singh, a local doctor with a mission. Educated patients are informed patients.
It does not matter what you are selling. Think about video as a chapter in a book. You need many chapters per topic. So what am I saying? Take a seminar that may be a half hour in length and turn it into a series. For example I recently took a seminar by Dr. Singh and made twelve videos from the one seminar.
Why would I do that? Remember the google beast. It needs to be fed often. So having many videos from your site on a topic is better than one long video. Plus and very important, attention span.

Grand Rapids Inventors share their experience with GRIN.
Members come from all over West Michigan.
Attention Grand Rapids Inventors, we welcome you to join us as you begin to take a journey from idea to market. GRIN, as many in the Grand Rapids Inventors Network call it is a growing group of individuals that have invented something and now need help with manufacturing, obtaining a patent, getting funding, marketing, Amazon and more.
As the name states it is more than just Grand Rapids Inventors. Coming from Big Rapids, Howard City, Rockford, Grand Haven and Muskegon are just a few of the communities GRIN members come from.
I first got involved with GRIN through current President Joe Finkler when I did a couple small projects for his ‘As Seen On TV’ business. He had heard about me through GRIN member Connie and Bill Larson from Larco Products. We (DW Video and Joe) began looking at how to market GRIN. Two videos were produced though having members of the board tell the story of the Grand Rapids Inventors Network. Here is one of those videos.
WELCOME TO GRIN

Grand Rapids Inventors Network is a resource to all who have an idea.
Members share insight that go beyond a scripted production. Keep it real.
Anyone who knows me, knows I like to keep it real. With social media being a big part of the American public’s routine. People want to connect with others. That is the basis of our Buy Local Video Profiles.
We are now marketing GRIN through video testimonials from their members. At a recent GRIN meeting the process was started – six members shared their story on how GRIN has help them on their inventors journey. It continues to amaze me the golden nuggets that we get with interviewing members of business and their customers. Soundbites that are just plain awesome and work to really promote a business, organization, school etc. We will get a few more and then go into production to produce more videos for YouTube, Social Media and the Grand Rapids Inventors Network website.
GRIN encourages members and provides resources.
No matter what phase of the invention process you are at… GRIN can help.
To all the Grand Rapids Inventors out there – Come attend a meeting (the first one is free) and find out how they can help you with both your invention idea and with the steps to success as an inventor. This is a journey and you are not alone. Why spend thousands of dollars trying to do it yourself. Reach out to the many mentors that are at every GRIN meeting. You will be glad you did.

Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords is part of our next 30 day challenge.
The ongoing need to feed the beast I call the Google Monster with Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. As mentioned earlier the results of my 90 Day Blog/SEO challenge was successful. It showed my site beginning to reach key market areas. For what my business does we could be hired and work anywhere. At times we travel. Realistically my business shines in Michigan. In general terms a number of communities within that area.
For the next 30 days or so my new challenge is building Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. Consider using location-based searches if your main market is in one region. When searching for a business in your area, search engine users will usually include their location in the search. Otherwise it gives you results from other states, not helpful if you need a roofer now. So, “home roofing contractor” becomes “home roofing contractor in Howard City Michigan. The more detail you put in your search, the better your results if finding what you need.
So that is what I am doing with each major keyword and location in my market area. NOTE: Been told by SEO programmers that Google frowns on using the same content on multiple pages with minor changes. Going back to our ‘home roofing contractor’ we would not place the same info on: ‘home roofing contractor big rapids’ – ‘home roofing contractor reed city’ and ‘home roofing contractor cadillac’ for example. The Google beast loves content, new and fresh content. This is where your time will be spent. Hours and hours working your Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. Plus do not forget you still need to be blogging as well. Feed the BEAST.
As we journey through the wonderful world of SEO remember there are numerous ways to work our site organically. Please do not get discouraged. This is a marathon. A never-ending marathon. This 30 day challenge of building Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords is only one technique we decided on based on our 90 day analytic report. When will I know if this is a good use of time… 30 – 90 days from now.
My goal is to help you. You first have to begin with a website that has a great foundation. Then and only then can we move forward. This journey is one I am happy to share with you. Learn from my success and failures. Need help on your site? Contact me at 231-937-5420. We can design and build your site, your foundation and then help you along the path. Thank you!
