I have a client who is also a good friend of mine named April Brown.
April is one of the most successful charity auctioneers in the West, perfecting her craft for the past 13 or so years.
Last year she decided to expand to the worldwide market and widen her opportunities. One area she dived into is creating her own video - and actually has a studio set up in part of her home office. She has multiple cameras and has done live and archived shows - take a look and feel free to contact herdirectly if you want to know how to utilize the tools she is using.
She also created and is selling a very cool audio CD, called Money is Marvelous, that shows you step by step how to put on the most successful charity auction you've ever done - telling secrets that no auctioneer has ever divulged (that I know of) without paying them a handsome fee.
I recently spent an entire day creating videos to help market my new book. I'd done the same thing ten years ago and it was amazing to experience first hand the impact technology had on video. I hired professionals but quickly realized that what was once a "professionals only" area of expertise, was now available to anyone with three grand for a decent camera and a good computer.
