I'm issuing you a Traffic Ticket

Trying to figure out ways to get new customers into your location for a grand opening or special promotion? You need to get Traffic Tickets! Imagine getting a 35% response to your direct mail and absolutely FLOODING your location with customers! If you're frustrated by only a 1% to 3% response to your direct mail (and many would call that a success!), then let me show you how to boost that dramatically. Examples: Green Giant - 35% response, Safeway Foods - 32%, Circle K - 14%, Chevron/McDonalds - 12% to 16% (multiple runs), AmSouth Bank - 22%, First Federal - 20%, Norwest Bank - 20%, Falls GM (auto dealership - usually very happy with a one half of one percent response rate to direct mail) - 3%, and the results were 37 units sold and 300 "ups" - very profitable for them. Let me show you how a Traffic Ticket program can benefit your business - call me today!

PPT2VideoPro Review

I recently tried a new program from Wondershare that allows you to make high-definition video straight from your Microsoft Powerpoint files - PPT2VideoPro. It really couldn't be easier - launch the program and just follow the simple instructions - takes about a minute to go through the options, and then just click on start. The time it takes to render the video is dependent on the video settings you select and the capabilities of your computer - I rendered a 4 slide video on a high-def setting and it took about 2 minutes. The quality is outstanding! You can also make videos that are compatible with iPhone, iPod, iPad and numerous other formats and settings.

Here is the video that I produced :



Here's a description of the software from the publisher:

I love my Canon HV20 camera!

I've owned this camera for over 2 years, but I'm just now learning how to use it to it's fullest potential. The manual settings work a lot better than the automatic settings, giving you a really fine picture quality. These images were shot in my front flower bed under cloudy skies.
