Take the time you play games and promote others. This also promotes you.
Promoting others is not that hard and is an art we all should learn. This morning while surfing through my Facebook Feed I noticed business friends taking time to play games and the sharing.
The game that caught my eyes was one of those, “Put a dot by the states you have been to.” Now, before going on with this blog post. Yes, I have fallen into this same trap. I am calling the kettle black. I have done this as well. However, this morning, this one post really got me thinking.
So you run your own business, school, organization? Money is always tight when it comes to promoting your business. In the same amount of time you spend ‘playing games’ you can help your business by promoting others.
Take the time to promote others by going to the organizations you belong to and sharing post about others to your main feed and business page. I call it, sharing the love.
Now listen and this is very important. When you share the post STOP! DO NOT JUST SHARE!!!! Take a moment and write something about the post you are sharing. Make it personal, give others a reason to read. I often say that if you are blowing something up, have something sexy it is hard for post about businesses to go viral and not just that to have any traction at all. It takes all of us to captain our ship (our business). The Art of Promoting Others is a mindset that you have to get into. By you sharing, commenting and promoting others…. you are promoting your business, your community, your local people. Get on board and help your community grow – promote others. GOOGLE My Business
Promoting Business in your area, grows your community!
Share what the local businesses have to offer. We are a team, a Band of Locals!

Using a personal YouTube Channel to tell and share your stories of Michigan Businesses, Organizations and Non-Profits. According to YouTube “Playlists should be an essential part of your channel strategy. Not only do they increase watch-time, they create another asset that will appear in search results and in Suggested Videos. You can create playlists using your own videos, other videos, or a combination of both.”
Telling and sharing your businesses story needs to take a series of videos, utilizing playlists, proper keywords… it takes a plan. A plan that takes time to produce, embed and track.

Create a YouTube Channel, Playlists and work local video SEO to promote your business.
Video SEO is work in progress. There are many factors that go into ranking. Organic SEO (search engine optimization) is the phrase used to describe processes to obtain a natural placement on organic search engine results pages according to WeboPedia. Meaning not having to pay for ads on Google, Facebook or YouTube. Depending on your keyword and the competition for those keywords, the geographic area you are targeting will depend on how long and IF/When your video ranks.
From the Google search our video was on page two within 24 hours. NOTE: This was from the video section of the search not the main search. More work needs to be done to move that ranking. Remember in the beginning of this article when I mentioned it was work in process. Now the work begins.

For years we have been producing video 0n-line testimonials for others. It is a humbling experience when the kind words are returned. Casey DuBois a board member of the Grand Rapids Inventors Network and one of the founding members of GR Makers. We were at a GRIN meeting and I was recording the presentation on 3D Laser printers… wow, very cool by the way.
At the end of the meeting Casey informed the group of DW Video & Multimedia’s new Buy Local Michigan’s Video Blog. The following video was unexpected and greatly appreciated.
