The other day I got to thinking about how ‘Impersonal’ social media sites, MLM company generated web sites, and most Internet pages are.
Now let me quickly clarify that these sites do allow for people to share information about their interests or about them and connect with people… but very few people utilize video in an affective way to begin the relationship-building process.
To do so on most sites you’d have to have someone click on your video post or link to get them to watch it, too.
So I started looking for a way to position myself (via video) in front of every person who accepts my invitation to visit my web sites; both social media focused or not.
To my surprise and joy, I found just that!
A System…
- Where I could put my own video welcome and introduction on a pre-landing page to my site. This has allowed a way for my ‘new friends’ to see me, hear me, and get to know me better than they ever could have by just reading my profile or reading my copy.
- Where I can give directions of where to go and what to do as they enter my site. This allows for me to request that they look at certain information, direct them, and make their visit more productive.
- Where I can give them a call to action for subscribing to my newsletter, video series, or eZine. This is a tremendous benefit for them and me. They won’t miss an opportunity to subscribe to my valuable info, and I have the opportunity to obtain another subscriber.
And many MLM or Direct Sales companies don’t allow for the associates to present themselves in video OR get notified about people who want to request more information or followup from the person hosting the site.
http://instantcapturepagepro.com has met all of this criteria, and I’ve posted a few videos on how I’m using this tool and my results.

Nice job Kary! I actually liked your presentation of this even better than the Creator's!! Very clear and succinct… thanks so much! One questions i had though is whether this capture page comes up EVERY time someone goes to your page. ie. Everytime someone goes to your facebook page this would pop up? If that's the case i'm curious if that would get annoying for people who already know and like you and just want to go straight to your page w/out always having to close the pop-up window first. But again, great information, thanks!!!
I really like the idea of this product Kary! I especially like the idea of having a capture page in front of your Facebook account. That's fantastic! I thought the product would be a monthly subscription but it's actually just one time price that I think is very fair. I think I want to give this thing a try. Thanks for the clear explanation!
Thanks Lance! It doesn't pop up every time because they give you a unique url and I use it in my auto DM from Twitter as an invitation to come join me on FB. That is the only time they would see it. They would have to use this specific link: http://facebook.karyrogney.com
I've just made a subdomain and masked it and use it coming from Twitter. I get about 10 friend requests a day from people who want to connect from Twitter… Thanks Glenn for you comment, too! I'm having a blast with this tool and it's been very productive for me to generate subscribers, relationship building, and video branding.
Hi Kary:
This was an incredible post. It is important to understand how to take advantage of social media. People has confused the use of internet specially social media. This is an incredible way to reach millions of people, but it seems that we forget that even though it is online, we still need to create relationships and try to be as personal as possible.
Thanks Kary for the post,
Carina
Hi Carina! Thanks for your kind words. Yes, it's time for people to use social media correctly and really leverage the technology that's in place. Have a wonderful day!
I'd like some recommendations for books about social media marketing. Specifically, best practices and examples of how companies are using sites like Facebook/Myspace/Twitter to build their businesses.
Hey,
The book that lead me to all this great knowledge and connected me to the
trainers and systems I was looking for was: Social Media Marketing… An
Hour A Day

Kary,
This is a great tool..I especially like that users can choose to close the window if they wish. I have purchased the program but have yet to incorporate it into my pages, guess it’s going to have to go on my “to do” list real soon!
Are you finding that this increases your opt in rates?
Thanks,

This tool has allowed me an opportunity to begin to brand myself

with this in place than I would without it…
