This is a video showing you how to set up pop email on your iPhone for Adobe Business Catalyst users. 

This is a video screencast showing Adobe Business Catalyst users how to blog from their iPhone to blog using an app called Blogpress.

I've used a Apple Mac app called Reflection.app which uses Airplay to mirror my iPhone screen onto the Mac and recorded the screen using Camtasia 2 for the Mac.

I hope this is of benefit to all new and existing BC end users and partners.

How many visits will I get to my website if I am number one is an age old question. 

But first you need to know how many people are searching. This short screencast shows you 2 ways to find out how many people are searching, then using the spreadsheet you can work out how many visits you'd get IF you were number. 

 And IF is a big question which will be addressed when we launch The Cave (code name)

Complete the form and I'll send the spreadsheet to you

It's a screencast of research I've done into the "home made cushion" market.

I know, not my thing either. But if you are serious about your business and leveraging the web, you will find this dynamite.

This video will give you a firm grasp of :

• What people search for versus what you think they search for
• What traffic there is for hundreds of search phrases you never thought of
• It will show you the difference between search and likely traffic to your site
• It will show you the competition and whether you can or cannot compete in certain markets.

Then it goes on to building a framework for a website based around what people are searching for and finishes off with a wireframe - an outline of a website.

This is what we do unlike most web developers and web designers. This is what we do before we even look at design or coding.

This type of research and planning is what differentiates a website that works for a business and one that is just pretty pictures and code.

This is a short video idea outlining how you could reconnect with old contacts you have stored in your email client. You can do this whether or not you use Adobe Business Catalyst as your email marketing programme.

Imagine you have 10 people in your office and each one has a couple of hundred contacts in their email client. This is an ideal and easy way to reconnect. Maybe even create some future business from.

It's been a while since I've made a screencast. I've suppose the short term quick fix satisfaction of Twitter and Facebook have distracted me from actually creating anything that could be helpful.

Of course, regardless of the type of business you have, you should be implementing this kind of enquiry follow up.
