089: Video Marketing for Local Business – Andy Sokol

Video Marketing

Andy Sokol

You hear marketing experts talk about video marketing again and again because it works. Yet for most local small business owners, it is a mystery. Today’s guest is a local business owner who has broken the code on video marketing and he is ready to share what he’s learned with you.

From Lemonade to Lawn Mowers, Andy Sokol has always had an Entrepreneurial Spirit.

For as long as he can remember, Andy has always wanted to be in business for himself.  So at the age of six, he began his entrepreneurial path with a lemonade stand.  Seven years later, he retrieved and sold golf balls from the local golf course, in his backyard and then followed that up with a lawn mowing service.

At the age of 19, Andy would find himself attending various training events to guide him along his path.  While discussing his success, Andy said he “knew the key to my future success would come from my desire to always be better than the competition, never be stagnant and to continuously learn from the best.”

After a successful – though unfulfilling career – as an insurance salesman, Andy embarked on his first business venture.  In 1995, he and his brother Jeremy started CopyScan with no more than a one-page ad and word-of-mouth endorsements.

Today, Andy owns two of South Florida’s largest independent Document Management businesses.

Andy has discovered that In order to have a successful business all these years, he’s had to market his companies differently than his competitors in order to stand out from the crowd.  One of his favorite methods of marketing is through the use of YouTube videos.

So how does a brick and mortar business monetize free YouTube videos?  That is the topic of this episode of ACT LOCAL Marketing.

081: Charisma on Camera with Sandra Dee Robinson

Charisma on Camera

Sandra Dee Robinson

Charisma on Camera may come naturally to some. For those of you who are more like a deer in the headlights, guest Sandra Dee Robinson can make you ready for your close up.

Sandra Dee Robinson has spent nearly all of her life in front of a camera: as an actor (including Another World, Sunset Beach, Bold and the Beautiful, General Hospital, Days of Our Lives, Two and a Half Men, Criminal Minds, Secret Life of an American Teenager and TV movies) and as a TV host and product spokesperson.

You might think then, talking directly into camera or speaking on a stage would seem like a natural thing for her to do. Far from it! “I was extremely shy but comfortable behind a character (acting). When people began to ask me to support a charity on stage, or sell a product, even be interviewed and they said, ‘Just be yourself!’ I was so lost.”

As it usually happens with persistence, there came a day of a breakthrough; exhaustion and a funny circumstance onstage of an infomercial shoot had Sandra unexpectedly enjoying being “herself” on a stage. She was relaxed, having fun, and getting her message across in her own unique way. Suddenly, moments of her training experiences came back to her and it all finally started to make sense!

What Sandra teaches at Charisma on Camera is a super-condensed and individualized combination of her training and experience that can help anyone feel better, look better and perform better without all of the years of frustration and pain, and outrageous spending that she did!

Sandra has been coaching entertainment reporters and television hosts, and she founded Charisma on Camera to expand her clientele to professionals in any field. Her current clients include authors, life coaches, experts in their fields that want to find their star qualities, confidence, and comfort level to establish themselves as an expert guest, successful speaker or host their own show. – See more at:charismaoncamera.com
