AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAI thought the same way for a while, as motion graphics was my 'secret weapon'. The beginning of my career was filled with many arguments on art direction. I wanted to go 'all-out' because I knew I could, cheaply. I wanted flashiness for the sake of flashiness, and everytime I saw a TV commercial...- DennisD

AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAI could talk for hours about this (and have). I'll summarize: Web pages are considered "resources" by search engines. Video is considered "entertainment" and the algorithms are slightly different. Web pages build slow, and steady links from authorities Videos go viral with a crazy amount of...- DennisD

Porn site owner who enjoys fast lane success IAMA on Reddit
NOTABLE! EXECUTIONThe stuff's just not my style, personally. But I don't find anything morally wrong with it. Women show off their bodies all the time. Get out of traffic situations. Get free drinks. Get guys to help them move. I see it all the time. In this case, there are guys that want to see naked chicks...- DennisD

AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAReally depends on who you're targeting. Your first few clients will probably be random. I suggest taking any work that you happen upon. Believe me, nobody's a bigger fan of direct customer targeting than me... but that's a luxury reserved for people that already have work coming in. If you're...- DennisD

AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAAs always, cost of any video production is dependent on exactly what you want to do. Many times I'll talk to customers who think video's a good idea, but they don't know what they want, or why they want it. Feel free to email me what you're thinking of and we can move forward from there. One...- DennisD

AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAI went to The New England Institute Of Art. Really great school. Less of a college, more of a tech school. All of the teachers were working in the field actively. Some were local news producers, some had documentaries in indie theaters, one was a producer for WGBH, one produced corporate videos...- DennisD

AMA about Video Marketing
MARKETING AMAWhat's up ladies and germs. I've been in video marketing for 7 years as a freelancer/consultant. I've worked with huge companies (Cadillac, Showtime, Sears, New Balance, HP, Viacom, CBS) and small companies alike. Even individual vloggers looking to expand their youtube audience. So here's the...- DennisD

Delete thread - please don't ask.
IMPORTANT!I think his request is pretty reasonable, for someone to just go back to his company name or link and replace it with [BUSINESS NAME DELETED FOR PRIVACY]. I know you said that user name changes weren't allowed unless it was for privacy/personal security and I kinda see this as the same thing...- DennisD

What clicked in your head to start your Fastlane process?
MINDSETWow. 20 years industry experience. I'm 25, so that blows my mind. You've been working in the industry since I was 5. I think the typical fastlane story is this: people are indoctrinated into the system, they're told it's what they're supposed to be doing, and then they rebel and find their own...- DennisD

What I learnt from an uncle who won the lottery
MINDSETI see myself as having a fastlane mentality, common sense, and even some discipline, but I still don't think I'm smart enough to "invest wisely". I wouldn't "blow it" on selfish pursuits.. but I don't think I have the experience necessary to turn a million dollars into even more money... I don't...- DennisD

Acquired a new skill!
I think you should suck it up and just do it this way. You're afraid of being a pain in the a$$, I know, but business people are used to talking business with other business people. Talking to salespeople isn't a bad thing for a business person. All B2B is built around making life easier for the...- DennisD

Audio Books vs Reading
I listened to the audiobook of "Book Yourself Solid" and I was frustrated. I wish I had the physical book so I can take notes and comprehend better. I listened to the audio book of Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers however, and it was great. Podcasts are also great to listen to. If you haven't...- DennisD

Never Be Broke AGAIN!
PEOPLEWhen I was a child, we used to go camping. My father was all about building a HUGE fire, I think it's the main reason we went camping. I have vivid memories of walking through the woods, gathering logs and kindling with my father. He always found a large fallen branch. He used it as a fire...- DennisD

Re-Introduction: Bragging about business
Deal! My only stipulation is that we both sign nondisclosures everytime we talk. I also want a guaranteed option to sell you my 10% if we fail to make it on shark tank. I'm also instituting casual fridays for everybody involved. Nothing too crazy... just slacks and a wacky tie.- DennisD
