How to Be Everywhere - Building a Profitable BRAND by Thinking Outside the Blog

http://www.smartpassiveincome.com - This is a re-recording of the presentation I did at Blog World Expo 2011 in Los Angeles.

I wanted to re-record this for you because it does contain some very important information that was very well received at the conference, that I just had to share with you. Anyone who wants to expand their brand and get off of your "growth plateaus" for your website, this presentation is for you.

This was meant for a live audience, but I've adapted it as much as possible for YouTube and those who will be listening to it on The Smart Passive Income Podcast as well.

Thanks, and enjoy!

-Pat

Great video as usual Pat but I think you missed out on the distribution of written content to get it everywhere and in front of as many eyeballs as possible. Having a great blog is great but in order that people see what you do you need to go with your content where eyeballs are and this is true with videos- podcasts but also for written content as well. What are your thoughts about it Pat?

[SmartPassiveIncome]

@michelnilles Yes, but the whole idea is that not everyone loves to read, and those who don't like to read will not read your blog but can find you in those other mediums as well. Plus, if you only stick to writing, you're just a writer, just a blogger. Most people know that guest posting and getting links from other sites is great - this presentation was stepping out of that normalcy and doing something on a whole different level. We all want more eyes on our blog, but this is beyond that. Thx!

Pat, how did you make your 'whiteboard' in Photoshop? Do you just make a .jpg or .png as a slide for each board or do have an actual whiteboard that you use?

[SmartPassiveIncome]

@MagzParmenter Thanks for the question! I just created a new image in photoshop that is 1280x720 - add some elements like a frame and my logo, and then that becomes the "whiteboard" that I draw on. I then record myself drawing on top of that image, open in photo or just any photo viewer and when I edit in screenflow (you can do this on Camtasia studio for PC too), you can select just that part of the screen. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need more clarification.

Thank you for putting this out here for free for us all. I want to develop my "everywhere-ness" by making YouTube videos this year. I so appreciate the tips you give in this video for doing that as I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around how YouTube will help me. But I have a much clearer picture now. Think of YouTube as a search engine! This is a fantastic key. Thank you, Pat. Your integrity shines through all you do.

@SmartPassiveIncome Thanks Pat. I actually figured it out while I was in the shower this morning (where all my best thinking happens...LOL) But it's great to hear it straight from you and know that I figured out correctly! :) Thanks again.
