I received an email over the weekend from Selling Power inviting me to watch a new series they are launching. It is a daily video clip roughly 5 minutes in length with Gerhard Gschwandtner. Here are the selling points they used to hook me:
You are invited to watch my new Selling Power Daily Report, a series of online videos.
– Watch for less than five minutes a day
– Enjoy insightful interviews with top thought leaders
– Get bright ideas to implement every day
– Learn new business solutions every day of the week
– The reports are FREE for the month of October 2006
I went to check out the clips and see how long they have been doing this series (brand new with only 5 videos). From the current videos and looking at the coming attractions, it appears that Gerhard conducts a brief 5 minute interview of his guests. In most of the videos, there is something that can be pulled out that is worthwhile. It is also a chance for the interviewee to plug their product.
Here are a couple of things that caught my eye. A great quote form Albert Einstein in Oct. 3rd’s segment on How to Turn Passion into Profit:
We are boxed in by the boundary conditions of our thinking.
And from today’s (Oct. 9th) Nutrition for Traveling Executives the following stat just blew me away:
The direct health costs related to obesity in America exceed $82 billion a year.
For me, the jury is still out as to the overall value of these videos. They are new so it will take time for them to establish the topics. I’ll monitor them and keep you posted throughout the month.
