In this episode, Geoff shares his wealth of knowledge and experience in video creation including how to get the best content and set-up for your video, the best video editing software, promoting your video and what video sharing platform to use. Join us for an episode packed with value, value and more value. And just for the records, Geoff’s in Australia so he recorded this episode at [5:00] AM!   My Guest: Geoff Anderson Geoff Anderson has owned and operated Sonic Sight, a video production facility in Sydney, Australia, since 1993. He’s worked on productions throughout Australia, New Zealand and Singapore and the US, playing the role of video producer, cameraman, editor, director and scriptwriter. Geoff’s background is in science, majoring in Bio-Chemistry and Pure Mathematics, but when he realized that science was not necessarily his thing, he headed overseas and spent two winters skiing in France. During that time, he was paid to water ski, windsurf, scuba dive, pour beers, drink beers, drive around, grow watermelons and occasionally electrocute himself.   Episode Highlights: [04:04]: The camera we used to carry around had a box that was a recording deck, which would be connected with, like an umbilical cord to the actual camera. So it was a two-person shoot. [06:25]: I think it all comes down to the individual definition of what success is. So for other people, they may want the challenge and the excitement of building a big global business. For me, my priorities were my relationships, my children. I want to actually enjoy the ride. [21:00]: The marketing I do now is, I actually look at a school that I’m interested in, I go on LinkedIn and find out who is the marketing manager there or the consultant, and I ring that person. Doing all the social media marketing and stuff is great, and it is important. But really, when I want to get to a particular client, I pick up the phone and I ring them. [29:43]: YouTube is much better for a search result, [but] Vimeo is a cleaner look for your videos. So it’s good for embedding on your website or sharing it with other people. And you’ve got a bit more control these days with Vimeo than YouTube because YouTube are now making you watch other videos of the end of it, whereas on Vimeo, you can direct people a little bit more what you want them to do with it. [36:19]: A case study is a great video because you can have your customer talking about the experience they had with you. They can take the audience on the journey they’ve gone on, from where they had a problem that you can relate to, the solution was provided by your company, whether that was a product or service that they need. And now their businesses in this situation which they want to get to as well. And then they talk about how they are feeling now as a result, that’s a four-step sort of process I take my clients on when we interview them about case studies. [45:38]: I’m an iMac I use Final Cut Pro, but Adobe Premiere Pro on a PC and Mac is very good for editing. For screen capture, we use Screen Flow. Quotes: Just do it.

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.with Alexi Boyd from Boyd Office Management ServicesDate: 27 August 2019 For years Geoff Anderson, video producer and best selling author has watched the video industry develop from an advertising medium only accessible to the corporates to one which any micro, small and large business can utilise in their marketing arsenal. The introduction of powerful video camera capabilities in our hand-held devices has meant anyone can produce high res, quality videos to showcase their products & services. So why is it we are not all doing it?

Well, for starters we don't wear the hat of video marketing experts. Geoff Anderson has just launched his second book called Watch Me Now, leveraging videos to maximise your return on investment where he clearly points out that a Video is worthless if no one sees it.And he is here to teach us about not only producing great video content yourself, but how to engage with an expert to take it to the next level AND importantly how to make sure it is SEEN. Welcome to the show Geoff. Topics we’ll be covering: Tell me a little about your small business journey (including your book) and why you’re passionate about educating small businesses Why it’s crucial for small business to understand the power of video for their marketing strategy Not just marketing tool but also communications tool for positioning yourself as an expert Using video content to educate your audience - but WHO is the audience and what are you hoping to achieve from the video content?

Don’t bury the website on “page 5” where no one will notice it Add it as a link in your email signature! Where SHOULD you showcase the video and what platform is best? What are some examples in your experience of when small business has really leveraged video to promote their business in a really different way (Edward Zia - 3 x videos a day - quick and easy, effective, driving audience to his products) (Law firms repurposing content from live events) (5 x mistakes, How to, rapport) (Brigidine - personalised welcome video) (Ravenswood - school tours - live audience - strong conversion, emotional connection)     To find out more go to his website: http://geoffanderson.com.au   Producing a great video is step one. Step two is making sure people watch and engage with your video.

All audio and video equipment with multiple camera angles are set up for them ready to go. One price covers both audio and video.  Preproduction (macro-strategies, storyboarding, scripting) and post productions (editing, marketing, podcast training) are add ons if required.  SponsorGo Another very cool idea developed by Michael Jones is SponsorGo.com, which is a website, sort of like Linkedin, but it's a way for athletes to connect with potential sponsors and advertisers.   If you have any questions about this podcast episode, please send me an email at tf@tysonfranklin.com, or you can contact Michael Jones at mike@mrmichaeljones.com or via Media Zone and Sponsor Go Sporting Network.  Podcast Reviews If you enjoy listening to this podcast, please tell your friends.

Are you one of those business owners who's made a video for your business, put it on your website and then wondered what else to do with it? Excellent! Then wonder no more, as today's guest, video marketing expert Geoff Anderson,  has 30 ideas to make sure your video gets seen by as many of the right peeps as possible.   A little bit more about video marketing expert and founder of Sonic Sight Geoff Anderson ... Righto, hands up if you've ever produced a video for your business. Excellent. Well done to you. Now, keep your hand up if you've posted that video somewhere on your website then wondered why it's not getting the views or engagement you'd hoped for. Just what I expected … 95% of hands remained up. Well, herein lies the problem. You finally find the courage to appear in a video for your precious business, you invest precious time and money into having it produced (or you may have shot it yourself), but then all you do is post it on your website hoping it'll magically take care of itself. Well, as you've discovered … it won't! But that's all about to change thanks to video marketing expert Geoff Anderson of Sonic Sight who's been producing marketing videos for businesses and schools since 1993. He's even written two books on the topic - Shoot Me Now and Watch Me Now. You're going to need a notebook for this one … in the first half we talk about some tips and tricks to optimising your video production, then in the second half, Geoff shares 30 ways to get every video you produce … seen. Pens at the ready …   “Video is very much a highly effective business communication tool … it's no longer just a promotional tool. So … take it seriously!” - Geoff Anderson, Sonic Sight   Here's what caught my attention from my chat with video marketing expert Geoff Anderson: I love how Geoff's gone about marketing his own business. We didn't spend a lot of time talking about this, but just the fact that he's written two books on video marketing for business positions him as an expert in his niche. Another past guest who's done this is Darren Finkelstein. I love Geoff's advice around “starting strong and smart.” this isn't dissimilar to the advice I received from past guest Richard Stubbs, who was very big on always leading with your best content. The bottomline here is to avoid long, rambling starts and cut straight to what;'s important to the viewer/listener/reader. I love Geoff's advice around frequency. Always remember to breathe life back into the videos you create. Sharing them once on social media just won't cut it.   “There has never been a better time to use video production to reach your audience. Professional corporate videos attract attention, engage the audience, build trust, and convert.” - Geoff Anderson, Sonic Sight Geoff Anderson Interview Transcription Tim  Geoff Anderson welcome to the small business big marketing show.  Geoff  Thank you for having me Timbo.
