As time passes, family photos and memories are at risk of being lost.
Unexpected events such as earthquakes, fires, or floods can lose them forever.
The time to have loved ones share their memories and stories passes away sooner than we expect.

Every house.
Except hers.

Okay.
Admit it.
You have sometimes looked at that mountain of boxes of old family photos and thought the D-Word.
Dumpster
Who would know? Right?
If asked, you would say something like, “‘Geez, I thought those were boxes of old Playboy (Playgirl, Sweet 16, Popular Mechanics, …) magazines you wanted me to dump.’
Still, you will feel like you have a reservation in that special place in hell next to people who commit atrocities or talk in the theatre.
So you can’t just dump
Here are some of the reasons that may be haunting you:
Yes, just having them take space in your basement or storage unit until left to the next generation won’t fly either.
So you are stuck between a box and a hard place.
You have to do something!
Why not try to make it as fun as possible?
Transform Guilt into Fun!
Here are some ideas to turn the drudgery into a fun event for your family.

On a screen (the largest you have available), you are flipping through the scanned and restored photos.
‘Hey, that is Missy Springhorn! she was in my grade
‘That is Uncle Bob, I think he lived in Cleaveland and worked as a blacksmith.’
‘That is Grandma and Grampa Gunderson getting married on 1897.’
As you discuss the photos, you can record the session and add titles and descriptions to the photos.
You family and friends will love seeing the photos and sharing the stories. They will be glad that you helped make it happen.
Zoom is a great way for family and friends from around the world to join the party.
The host of the Zoom session can record the comments and share the screen with the photos.
Your people can join in on a desktop computer, laptop, or mobile device.
Make it a fun family event!
Yes. There are a few important steps skipped.
How do you transform that mountain of photos into images to view and document at the Fun Family Photo Party?
There is no escaping the fact that it will take some equipment, strategies, and a lot of time to digitize your treasures.
Here are some ways of capturing your photos in digital format for editing and sharing.
You might invite your family over to have a scanning party.
Scanning can go quicker if you have someone doing a quick sort and handing the photos to the people running the scanners.
Warning: A few beverages and you might not make much progress on the photos.
Could still be fun, though:-)
There are a number of ways we can help get your photo party started, starting with free. See Resources For Doing It Yourself below.
Until then, here is how we can help.
We offer a special package where we create a framework for scanning and organizing your photos.
The package includes us scanning your photos, though the framework itself is where most the the magic happens.
The special price is $297 for just the scanning and organizing if you are not yet ready to commit to a Fun Family Photo Party.

Well designed video clips integrated into a business marketing plan can help attract great clients to you and your business.

Video is key to many marketing campaigns and the trend is towards more video in the future. Here is an except from the AWAI ‘s 2019 Copywriting Pricing Guide:
Here are some of kinds of video that can help your business:
We will discuss your goals and suggest videos that would help your business the most.
Videos alone will not grow your business. The clips need to be deployed and promoted within a marketing strategy and plan.
Some of the marketing and copywriting elements that will maximize your business reach include:

Just to be clear, there are times when you want to spend thousands of dollars a finished minute.
With the Video and Marketing Starter Package, we suggest 4 clips.
For example:
We can determine the ideal clip mix during discussions and shooting.
Here is the process we go through for each video clip.
We then help you roll out your video clips according to the marketing plan.
Depending on the plan we agreed on, the actions could include:
Let’s track to see if the video and marketing actions worked.
From there we can build on what worked and possibl do more of the same or more elaborate productions and campaigns.
For a business, the number one indication of success is the result you got from your investment in video and marketing.
Did you build your mailing list?
Did you have sales?
In simple sales terms, you want to have more revenue from your campaign than it costs.
If you spend $5 to make $10, great! Keep bumping up the investment until you stop getting a positive return.
$1,000 nets you $2,000, then try $10,000.
That worked, try even more.
However, if $1,000 nets you less than $1,000, then you did not get a good return.
It is possible to spend a lot of money and get a very poor return.
So there are some tough questions you need to answer for yourself.
Are there enough people out there who desire and need your product and service with the means to pay enough for it to make your business proposition viable?
If you are not sure, this Video and Marketing Starter Package is priced low enough to test your market.
If you have a truly powerful offer that’s matched to your prospects’ wants, needs, and desires, then you could actually do a mediocre sales presentation and still get pretty darn good results. On the other hand, if you have an offer that is weak, is not perfectly matched to what your prospects want, then even a perfect sales presentation won’t get good results.

What more do you get for that, you may be asking?
The answer may be surprising. You might actually get shorter video clips than with the Starter Video and Marketing Package.
What you get is something of a different animal with much more careful scripting, location shooting, motion graphics, and more television ad level production.

The Golden Video and Marketing Package could include clips along the style of Pop Videos, plus a more intense marketing rollout and strategy.
By the way, many of the Pop Video clips are designed to play in video players mounted on retail shelves. The players detect when someone passes and starts playing a video to attract attention to the product. We can tell your more if interested.
