I've been working hard for 3 1/2 years. Every day, 1100+ podcasts, and I'm just now seeing the fruits start to bud with business contacts coming in. And that's with the easiest thing to find on the internet. Weather. But time is short, and I'm already starting to fight the uphill battle as I haven't been as fast on the upswing as I should be.
As Gary said... do it now. Don't wait.
Just too expensive... and no revenue for now.
Alf season II was the best season ever, lol.
On the other hand, I think that no one can take your personal brand away from you as that's who you are. Identity theft could be a problem, but that's only a masked portrayal of yourself, not real you.
Have a great day people!
Can you discuss some of the tools you use to produce your blog? to help out a newbie?
Like - type of video camera, stored on viddler?, WordPress?, how much customizing is done on the site, etc.
Cheers
Everybody is an expert at something - now is the time to make the most of it.
The Internet gives us all a publicity platform our grandparent's never would have dreamed of.
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm!

There are no house fixer upper shows.
There are few cooking shows.
Total open field.
Does it have to be video? What about internet radio??? Thoughts??
I've been watching your vids for a few months now and love them.
I wanted to ask a favor (we can take this into private email if you want).
I play in a band called ThunderPants here in Houston and I would LOVE it if you could find some way to send us 5 of the "Bringing the Thunder" wristbands. If you can, I'll make sure to get photos (or at least some decent video footage) of us rocking the shit out of things with your kickass wristbands. We could even find some hardcore WWF figurines to put on stage, though I'm not sure how well they'd hold up to the power of rock that is ThunderPants.
We are a rock coverband, but if you want I'm sure we could find someway to record a special clip for your show. Or I could just scream AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHHH OAK MONSTER into the mic during one of our recorded gigs and send that. I dunno.
I love what you do and I'd love to get my hands on a bunch of those Bringing the Thunder wristbands if possible. I'll pay shipping or whatever you need. Please let me know.

I bring the thunder with my guitar.
You are a true visionary. We all need to "step up" and take the FIRST spot in our niche. I'm working on it, but it takes a little time.
One question. How often do you think we should launch a new video on our blogs?
Thanks,
Mike
Your show is amazing and it has done wonders. I may only be 19 but my parents are always asking me for a good wine choice now because i watch your show and they know that some how I know my wines.
P.S. Dont worry I dont drink it with them.

One of our customers told us about you. He likes our wine and wanted to see it on your program. Check out our website.
Would you like to see pictures if our winery & vineyards?

A friend sent us your video which had me pumping my middle-aged fist which then led to some upper arm extra flesh wiggling underneath, but no matter! WE'RE JAZZED!!
I am doing just what you prescribe...even stopping midlifers in the street to spread our word! Thanks for your enthusiasm!

I had seen Wine Library before (with a 10 year old Imac) and the speed of my video made your show almost painful to watch. I recently had to upgrade my hardware (new Mac) and today I had an epiphany. I have seen the new face of wine in the 21st century and his name is not Robert Parker.
I believe you are doing more single handedly to take the snob out of wine and to promote fine wine than anyone I have seen (or heard of). Wine is to be shared with friends and great wine shared with friends that might appreciate what is being poured-A big fat tip of the hat to you.

I am a perspiring stand up comic. I started in Pro-wrestling, trained under Dory Funk Jr. (OK, that was for wrestling and I loved it, barring the pain that has followed, but I would do it again.)
Although I can write comedy, it falls under many styles that I have witnessed. (Which is actually fine as I would be thrilled to just be a writer, as I have done on radio.)
I have come upon a podcast opportunity with popular NYC comics and national guys, (Nick Dipaolo), That I pitched to Rev 3. (Turned down by Sarah Lane)
I know you can do nothing about this, but can you give advice, as I saw you on the live "Internet Superstar" and you have the best delivery of the show. (Ok, this is more than five sentences.) My idea was to film NYC comics at the comics table. (The comics table the most fun as I had at clubs, just hanging with them.) I can give a sample of that locally, and DiPaolo has green lighted me to do it with him.
How can I sweeten' the deal as well as get the Rev3's attention to distribute. Anything you have, I am sure, can help me.
thanks,tony
Am I that different than the rest?

I have a couple of questions: initially, what is the very best way to spread the word about a NEW show besides just bombarding friends, clients and associates with links? Also, we noticed that you are "powered by Viddler" in your opinion what are the advantages of Viddler over other hosting sites?
Warm wishes to you,

This blog is a great way to get your point across and the whole idea of branding is right on...

As soon as we (David and Marc Perel) saw your videos we took a giant leap onto the band wagon.
How has it gone so far for us? Well it has been 7 days since the launch and our stats read 2500 visits and 3000 page views.
So to me it only confirms that there is market for this type of branding and there is a huge, gaping hole in the video blogging sphere.
What is everyone waiting for?
Most people, those sportcenter nuts, babysitters, sushi chefs, don't have the first idea when it comes to production...and it's too overwhelming.
Sure, they may start something but they soon realize that it's not quite up to par, they realize that it takes a sh*t-ton of work and they usually quit.
It takes a special breed of person to do it consistently, and the bar has already been set high.
Dude you could be speaking more my language. Guy I am coming out with a show soon and i would love to run it by you because honestly its scary how much with think alike...
And that couldn't make me happier because bro you are so ahead of the pack its not even funny. These other douchbags are still pushing to "Be an EXPERT" and to "Sell Info Products" which steers everyone down a path of Overwhelment (yeah I just made that shit up), non-stop training which requires spending $1000's and 1000's of hours (which is what "they" want) and I was one of the followers.
Until I realized that I wasn't doing what I loved. But dude I sincerely would love to "chat it up" because I come from the IM (internet marketers space) and my system is right in line with what you say but also shows the many ways to monetize.
And you can fully expect to get a link to this blog in every single post, article, video I release because no one says it better than you bro.
I bet your ass can't wait for another year or two to pass by so you can be known as the guy that was so ahead of the game "predicting the future" and yelling it as loud as possible so anyone with a ounce of motivation could take it and run right to the top.
Dude your sick and I am your #1 Marketing Follower.

Granted if you have an established brand, the name can be non-descriptive, but for brand building doesn't it help. I know this has been discussed in the tech community (techcrunch, and mashable articles,) but I'm thinking for people’s personal branded services it makes sense. Is there any point for a small time guy to go through the hassle of re-branding? Or is it a waste of time, because once your social media is out there more your non-descriptive brand will be associated automatically? What do you think? Thnx.
I'm SO THERE! Keep putting it out! PASSIONATELY! I've been doing it since the 1st day I heard you and IT IS WORKING FOR ME!
When I write a book you will write the foreword, brother! I freaking love you to death!
Thanks Gary!!
Really appreciate you---
