Share Your Visions EVERYWHERE With Multimedia Publishing!

Continents floating in a quantum universe. Share Your Visions Everywhere!

Do you have a Vision or two you want to share with the world?

Something to help people or businesses have better experiences?

Or simply your own stories?

Marie Forleo

The world needs that special gift that only you have!

Marie Forleo

I am something like a Zen Master at getting information out to audiences worldwide across a wealth of platforms.

Here is what I do to spread the word of my own visions for the world. I can do the same for your visions.

Blog Posts

Most content launches start with a blog post like this one.

Often, I will write directly in WordPress or draft in Google Docs.

I’ve trained an AI system in AWAI Copyediting, Copywriting, and across many subject areas.

I use folders in Grok. Most AI systems will work great. I often ask for copyediting feedback and a revised draft. I use this approach for client projects as well as my own.

Splash Images

I use a variety of sources and Adobe Photoshop to create an image that conveys the message.

These images are essential for search listings, YouTube, and social media posts.

Google Search Console

I use Yaost in WordPress to optimize for search engines (SEO) and AI learning models.

Then I register with Google Search Console.

Registering with Google Search Console, combined with the steps outlined below, can help the page appear in search results within a few hours of launch.

Social Media

I use GoHighLevel to send messages across social media platforms, including LinkedIn profiles and pages, Facebook profiles and pages, Instagram, and more.

Sometimes I copy and paste the blog post, edit it, and send it. Or I will create an intro and a link.

Following Dan Kennedy’s guidance, there will always be a Call To Action with a link.

Video Streaming

I follow up the blog post with a related live stream using StreamYard Studio.

My streaming destinations are LinkedIn, YouTube, and many Facebook profiles and pages. More destinations are available through StreamYard.

The marketing tool in GoHighLevel can send the video to more destinations.

LinkedIn is my favourite connection platform.

Audio Podcasts

I can use the audio and transcript from StreamYard to syndicate an audio podcast through Buzzsprout.

Often, I paste and edit the blog post for use as the show notes. Adding the transcript can improve search results.

The word ‘podcast’ has come to describe a general ‘broadcast’, either video or audio. The usage is unhelpful as the platforms are quite different, with different distribution mechanisms and audiences.

Podcast destinations such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Podcast Index, YouTube, iHeartRadio, and more.

The audio podcasts get to a different audience than the video broadcasts and social media.

And people can subscribe to your podcasts on most of these platforms.

Another bonus is that your episodes could also appear in search results.

Substack and LinkedIn Articles

Both Substack and LinkedIn articles show up online and in email to subscribers.

The blog post can be pasted in and edited, providing a quick way to reach another audience.

I connected my Substack account to my Buzzsprout podcast acount and Substack generated Substack posts from my podcasts.

Bonus!

Email

Email is still the best way to reach people who want to learn about your golden content and offers.

If not, they can simply unsubscribe.

Most content that would go into a blog post can also be sent via email for convenience to your audience.

I use Kartra for email, membership courses, video, surveys, landing pages, and more. I am one of the top experts worldwide on the platform and have helped many clients on the platform.

A three-month trial of Kartra is available now.

Book Publishing

There are many reasons for publishing a book, including leaving your insights and stories for posterity and opening doors for you and your business.

Putting a book on Amazon with Amazon KDP gives you a presence on the world’s largest book market.

Listing on IngramSpark enables book sales through bookstores and makes the book available for order in libraries and other outlets.

The content from blog posts can also be used in your books.

Shared Visions Unlimited and collaborators can help publish your books in multiple formats, including:

  • Print Book
  • eBook
  • PDF (great for lead magnets and printable resources)
  • Audiobooks
  • Digital Experience Editions (Kartra Memberships)
  • Flipbook.
  • Book Website.

Membership Courses

If you come to me with a book idea, I will also suggest developing a course.

The same goes for a course—could we publish a book on the topic?

My membership platform of choice is Kartra because it integrates text, video, audio, surveys, quizzes, payments, and more into a sophisticated multimedia membership course that performs better on smartphones than many dedicated apps.

GoHighLevel, Teachable, Kajabi, and other platforms are also worthy.

Media Articles

Sometimes your content would also find an audience through magazines, newsletters, radio, and television. Start with your local media outlets.

Publicity

The launch of a book, membership course, product, or service can attract significant attention through press releases.

Speaking

Speaking on podcasts, in broadcasts, at events, in networking meetings, and in front of interested groups can help bring your vision to the world.

Come be my guest on the Shared Visions Unlimited Show!

Across Multiple Dimensions

Werner Heisenberg

Not only is the universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.

Many people believe that humans are not limited by time and space and can communicate through practices such as prayer, meditation, and connections beyond conventional notions of the physical world.

Next Steps

Please consider using more of these platforms to share your vision with the world.

I can help you plan and implement many of them.

Capture Your Family Stories While You Still Can ~ Story Productions

The holiday season is a great time to celebrate with family and friends. It is also a good time to capture stories at family gatherings.

Some of the people at the table this year may not be able to share their stories next year.

Some will fall ill.

Some will die.

And you may never meet in person again.

You can capture the stories of your loved ones with nothing more than your SmartPhone, which has great photo, video, and audio recording capabilities.

Take Lots of Photos

Family events are a great time to take photos.

You can include the following types of photos:

  • Group Photos
  • Individual Photos
  • Personal Items On Walls
  • Photos in Albums

Shoot Video

Your SmartPhone is an amazing good video recorder. The AI built in to the newer phones will optimize the video for the lighting and sound conditions.

Some of the videos you can capture include:

  • Fun Family Activities
  • Round Table Stories
  • Individual Stories (you may need to prompt for specific stories)

Record Audio With The Phone

The Voice Memo or similar app on your SmartPhone is a great way to record stories that can be less intimidating than video.

You can hold the phone or put it on a pillow or cloth between you and the speaker.

Th pillow isolates the phone from table vibrations and also can reduce som of the ambient room noise.

Ask questions and encourage your family members to tell their stories.

Remote Recording with Zoom or StreamYard

You can record remote session applications like Zoom and StreamYard if you are not in the same city.

Questions to Consider

Here are some possible questions to ask:

  • The most interesting story that you know about
  • A story they want to share
  • Romances
  • Marriages
  • About their career
  • Favourite hobby.
  • Most interesting experience
  • Funniest experience
  • Time in the service
  • Anything you think they want to talk about

Storing

Photos can be uploaded to sites like Google Photos or Google Drive to collect the photos. videos, audio recordings, notes, and related documents.

This is the most important thing to do as you collect the media.

Organization

You can create folders on Google Drive to start organizing the media for sharing and using for Story Productions

You can name the folders something that makes sense to you.

Here is a sample:

  • Aunt Martha Miles
    • Notes
    • Videos
      • Early Days
      • Wedding
      • Adventures
    • Photos
      • Category 1
      • Category 2
    • Audio Recordings
    • Document

Story Productions

When you are ready, you can assemble the photos, video, audio, and notes into media for sharing.

I have created presentations in the following forms:

  • Print Book
  • eBook
  • FlipBook
  • Video clips
  • Audio
  • Slide presentations for weddings, anniversaries, and memmorials.
  • Multimedia Digital Experience Edition
  • Website
  • Blog post
  • Social media posts.

Story Production Tools

I use a lot of tools, including PhotoShop (images), FinalCut Pro (video), ClarityScribe (transcription, AI writing), Atticus (writing, print and eBook formatting), Heyzine (flipbooks), Kartra (membership portals, email, video hosting), WordPress (websites), and others to create Multimedia Story Productions.

Greg Dixon Is Available to Help

I am available to help coach you through the collection of the stories and crafting them into story productions.

I am working on a book and video training sessions.
