Brain Storm! Business Podcast: Pricing Strategies for Your Product, Sponsored by Online Community Magazines (10.69MB; download) -- In today's Brain Storm! Business Podcast, we will discuss different strategies to determine and implement pricing for your products and services.I first explain the problems I have been (and am continuing to) endure with my USB microphone. Ear pieces move, and despite packing tape, still cause clicking and clacking. Just shoot me now. We discuss the different options in pricing and how pricing is a part of your marketing strategy. Determining your target market and competition (or lack thereof) figure in, as well as segmenting your target markets regarding what they need from you and what they are willing to pay. Thanks to Joel Spolsky and a December 2004 article, we learn a lot about economics and why businesses price the same product different ways. Link to Joel's article is here: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/CamelsandRubberDuckies.htmlWe also discuss real life business examples, including lessons learned on my trip to Six Flags (I learned so much, I should have considered that a business trip).From coupons and rebates to discounts and membership sites, we touch on it all, and if you want to learn more, you'll have to listen to the business podcast! :)Penny Haynes, Online Community Magazines 1st Podcast Publishing [COMMENT] Selected by: jean ann van krevelen [ stations ], Sun, 27 Apr 2008 09:08:27 MST

Brain Storm! Business Podcast: Statistics on User-Generated Content and Multimedia, sponsored by 1st Podcast Publishing (9.70MB; download) -- Click here to listen to the podcast. In this week's Brain Storm! Business Podcast, we will discuss statistics related to user-generated content, including multimedia, and its affect on website traffic.I have been researching this information for marketing purposes for my Online Community Magazine software. You should definitely check out a site called eMarketer.com - tons of great information there. I can't afford their paid subscription ($10,000 a year!), but I can afford their free newsletter.I'm going to share the information on which today's business podcast is based in my marketing outline for why end-users should get a column, radio or tv show in an online magazine.
The magazine allows internet users to find your business more
quickly when they search on the internet.
I.
Search engine usage is second only to email when it comes
to the most popular activities performed by Internet users (Pew Internet
study).
II.
Americans conduct more than 4 billion searches each
month.
III.
As more and more U.S. households not only hook up to
the Internet, but go high-speed, their online activities will increase; thus
reducing their exposure to television, print media, and other channels used by
traditional advertisers. http://www.davidwilliams.biz/small-biz-news/2006-01-January.htm
By using audio and video, the site will bring more visitors to the
site â not only as consumers, but as participants!
IV.
Brian Haven, senior analyst with Forrester Research
Inc, says âMore than a third of adults say they view online video at least
monthly; 45 percent of online youth ages 13 to 21 have watched streaming or
downloadable videos in the past month.
And itâs going to get more popular in the next two years.â
V.
Haven also sees video search and niche video providers,
such as sites that cater to online learners, as possible growth areas. http://www.entrepreneur.com/technology/newsandtrends/article168766.html (Nov 2006)
VI.
According to eMarketer, spending on internet video advertising in the U.S. will jump
from $775 million this year to $1.3 billion in 2008. That's an expected
increase of 68 percent.
VII.
In its November 2006 Internet Video report,
eMarketer stated that small and midsize businesses could greatly benefit from
this hot technology. Online video ads are cost-effective to create, and they
can act as marketing materials or even educational tools. It's also easy to
promote them through your existing online marketing
campaigns, and you can give them more visibility through
video search sites.
http://www.entrepreneur.com/magazine/entrepreneur/2007/may/177134.html
People want a
truly interactive experience where they can contribute to the website. This means an increase in web traffic to any
consumer content driven sites.
VIII.
The content consumer becomes the
creator. Led by the companies
that started this revolution â YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Photobucket and
others â eMarketer estimates that US user-generated content sites will earn $1
billion in 2007 and reach $4.3 billion in ad revenues in 2011.
IX.
On a worldwide basis, user-generated content ad
revenues will rise from $1.6 billion in 2007 to $8.2 billion in 2011.
You can now market your business
products and services in the same level as major conglomerates for only a
nominal fee.
X.
Gone forever are the days in which giant media
conglomerates control the creation, distribution and monetization of
content, says Paul Verna, eMarketer Senior Analyst and the author of the
new report, User-Generated Content: Will Web 2.0 Pay Its Way? The
media companies are still around and still wield considerable clout as a result
of their c Selected by: jean ann van krevelen [ stations ], Sun, 27 Apr 2008 09:05:09 MST
