Learn how to become a video-based marketer quickly

"There's No Escape: The Future of Marketing is Audio Visual.

But... "Now You Can Make your Own Super-Slick Video Ads From Home!"

Rob Parnell here - how's it going?

Listen, This horrible virus has changed the world - and all of us in it - forever.

Where once we had a life outside of the net, and a job too, for many of us that will change.

If you've ever read my prophesies from 20 years ago, you will know that even back then I was teaching new writers they would have to prepare for a brave new world of internet based employment - and as soon as possible.

I hate to say I was right but I do have to say I never expected it to happen so quickly.

All the figures and surveys suggest at least 65% of us will be relying on some form of internet inspired income by 2025. So. Do you get it? The sooner you get involved in the online commercial world, the better.

We live in a time when the unexpected is normal and the unthinkable is just around the corner. You can't keep believing your day job - your normal life - will support you forever - or indeed that any offline job or life will!

Now is the time to learn how to communicate effectively with a band of followers, and potential buyers of your work, whether that's books, courses or perhaps even your music and film projects.

Or perhaps you're a trades-person who needs to let a lot more people know about your skills.

Maybe you're a doctor, a dentist, a real-estate agent or a lawyer.

Or maybe you make things - like clothes or trinkets or bikes or software.

Literally, any skill you have can be monetized and sold online through effective video promotion.

The best part is that the internet is now the most perfect place to sell anything.

All you need to do is to interact with your buyers - and to do it cheaply and effectively, without the need to learn complex new skills or by purchasing any expensive equipment.

Truth is, you can create professional looking ads, video sales letters, blogs, mini seminars and other short video content very easily and at minimal cost.

Let me show you how.
