With the show’s host Jeff Ogden, owner of Find New Customers,  away on vacation, the show’s former Producer, Alison Gilbert steps in to interview the reformed attorney and social marketing expert Craig Yaris, owner of Esquire Tech Solutions. Thanks for pinch-hitting for our host, Alison!

Thank you, Jeff for giving me the opportunity to interview our colleague and fellow blogger from Digital Ethos.org, founded by Basil Puglisi. Craig is a very special person. He embodies the qualities that make him, in one world, an excellent professional:
• he is the consumate pro with marketing clients
• he is a superb educator/social media instructor

Although he calls himself a redeemed attorney, he still keeps up his legal credentials. More importantly, he possess the qualities that make him this professional’s professional. He researches. He studies. He discovers the best solutions to his clients needs.

Likewise as an educator, he is ardent is his efforts to stay ‘ahead of the game’. This is no easy task as we are in a field that waits for no one and never stands still. Yesterday’s information is old news.
For anyone interested in being a social marketing pro, becoming better at serving one’s clients and/or wishing to be an educator, this video is invaluable. I hold Craig in very high esteem as a model for both and this video illustrates his attributes.

Note from the host and producer:
This video was so fascinating to tape that the editors allowed it to go the full length for about 26 minute rather than the 12-13 minute max previously. This requires and is the inspiration for a change in our show format.

We want to serve the needs of all of our viewers. Therefore, we will be establishing a system of teasers for those who wish to have a brief, about 3 minutes, synopsis of each week’s guest video. This will be available both on Marketing Made Simple TV and our YouTube Channel, Marketing Made Simple Jeff Ogden.

The show, full length video without edits, will ve available on Marketing Made Simple TV airing each Thursday at noon, ET, NY and 24/7 once it airs on both Marketing Made Simple TV and on Vimeo.

We welcome your comment, suggestions and of course, your compliments. We want to know that the show is meeting your needs and interests. We really would love to hear from you.

Marketing Made Simple TV: What Are We All About?

June 28, 2012 By 2 Comments

Since May 17, 2012, viewers have tuned into Marketing Made Simple TV on Thursdays at noon EDT/NY to view guests being interviewed by host, Jeff Ogden of Find New Customers. The interviews have been of professionals primarily in the business of social media marketing, content marketing, lead nurturing, etc.

There exists a great deal of information about the show itself. But until now, it has only been in writing on the Marketing Made Simple TV weblog. In other words, there was no video addressing the question, ‘Marketing Made Simple TV: What Are We All About’?

So Jeff decided is was time to answer that question on video. To add a bit of spice to the mix, which we always like to do any way, it was decided that we would do a Q&A format show rather than a solo appearance by Jeff.

Therefore today, as a special treat and surprise, we have a slight shift or twist on the way we do the show. We’ve  given it an extra pinch of zest. Jeff Ogden, the host of the show, has changed seats and become the guest himself.

Producer of the show, Alison Gilbert (that’s me), a veteran interviewer as well as a media maven, jumped at the chance to be the guest host and interview Jeff in the guest’s seat. Alison is the marketing ‘maven in the hat’ who introduces and closes the show each week.

Without further adieu, here’s the video of our Q&A session on what Marketing Made Simple TV is all about. On Saturday,  a more in-depth post will appear describing the experience of being the guest host and producer of a show using the latest technology, ‘Television on the Internet’ provided by show sponsor, Watchitoo.
