Eric Vreeland, on Hubspot's Inbound Marketing Blog wrote an article on how to record a webinar using one of my favorite tools, Camtasia. As I was reading his blog article, suddenly I was struck by this thought:
What if you as a Chair could create mini-webinars that are pre-recorded using your narration and a short powerpoint to illustrate a point about leadership, a take-away a speaker provided at one of your meetings, or even a topic that came up in the issue processing?
What a great idea!
You could then offer these "webinars" or "narrated powerpoint" files on the Slideshare Application of your LinkedIn Profile. You could create a YouTube Channel, convert the narrated powerpoints into video, and allow CEOs and Presidents to download these items.
What if you asked the speakers at one of your meetings if it would be okay to tape a couple of minutes of their presentation?
What if you asked the speaker coming to your meeting if they had a pre-recorded video or narrated audio on their content - maybe 3-5 minutes. You could take their video or powerpoint and combine it into your presentation.
Viola! Instant content that you could post to your blog, put on your LinkedIn Profile, add to your YouTube Channel, and send out to prospects.
Is anyone doing anything remotely like this as a Chair. I've seen the Vistage Corporate Video on some of the Chair's LinkedIn Profiles. I've seen some of the videos for Chairs produced by CV/Vision, but I was curious if you've personalized any of this powerpoint/audio/video for your specific group?
What do you think about this idea?
Eric does a great job in his post of quickly showing you how to use Camtasia to record a webinar - where you're speaking while flipping through powerpoint files on the screen. If you would like to read Eric Vreeland's full post on using Camtasia, please click the link below:
