As you can see in the video above, my friend Matthew Scott at Strategic Incubator asked me to do a short video linking where we live with what I do for a living.  This is the very first video I have done for anyone and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Matthew’s request spurred me to go buy the new Flip UltraHD mini video camera.  I have to say that it lived up to everything I have read about it.  It was easy to set up, easy to operate, easy to manage the videos on my computer and easy to upload the video to YouTube.

The popularity of video is taking the web by storm.  If you are a small business owner, there is absolutely no excuse for not getting one of these cameras and putting some video on your website.  There are other mini video cameras available on the market that may be just as easy to use and they are all about the same price.

So just take the plunge and step out ahead of your competition.

Coming up in the next few days I’m going to share some ideas I have about using video in your small business.
