The Son of Godzilla (The Next Big Thing)

According to Nielsen/NetRatings, Office Broadband Penetration rose to 93.61% and home Broadband Penetration broke 80% in February of 2007.

What does this mean? It means that 93.61% of businesses and 80% of households have broadband internet. It means that IT’S TIME FOR VIDEO!

Gone are the days of video bogging down a website and loading at the speed of smell. Todays connection speeds welcome instantly loading video, intro videos on your homepage, testimonial videos and FAQ videos.

Build trust, expertise and originality by using video on your website. Instantaneously, video can separate you from your competition and build a “face to face” relationship with a potential client anywhere in the globe. Your site is the one they will remember, your video is the image burned in their brain. You are the first one they will contact.

What are some of the ways video can be used on your site?

            Home page/banner video
            Testimonial Video
            FAQ video
            Separate page explanation/intro video
            Energizing eye-grabber
            Informational video
            Video Training
            Advertiser video
            Commercial campaign
            Talking head
            New product launch
            Live training, Live event

Every business has competitors, and launching a video on your website is an excellent way to separate you from your competition.

For more information on adding video to your website call Joe Lemire @ 904.998.1935.

It is no secret that part of our success has been our involvement with the Jacksonville Regional Chamber of Commerce. In the 3 years we have been members, our revenue has increased an average of 30 % each year…and most of our business comes from contacts or referrals from other Chamber members. If you receive this enews and are not currently a member, I encourage you to call me today and I can connect you with a chamber account manager. Chamber membership is the best investment you can make in your business.

Start a Bonfire!

In February we launched our latest product called Bonfire. Bonfire is an easy-to-use tool that lets you track the status of ongoing projects on a wide range of dimensions from any internet connection. When you login you will instantly see which projects are on schedule and which are behind. You can monitor all related "Todos" and filter by project, employees or status.

Any business that has more than 1 client can use Bonfire.

Many web based project management solutions force users to adopt new, unfamiliar processes that cause users more work. Bonfire is designed as a fast, easy to use solution to enhance and improve any processes that you already have. Team productivity will skyrocket in a collaborative environment that is customized to your unique work process.

It doesn’t matter if you a have formal process in place, or you're starting for the first time, Bonfire can provide you and your team with the tools you need to complete projects on time and under budget.

Why Bonfire???


	It's easy to use, customized to your specific needs... with all the powerful functionality you would expect from a more expensive program. Other project management tools have features that rarely get used and get in the way of effective collaboration. We know the most important feature is simplicity. We've “burned” the complicated stuff that gets in the way of effective project management. Access information 24 hours a day from any internet connection. Give different levels of access to users based on their roles in the project.

There's NO software to load!
