Networking VIDEO “Putting Social in Social Channels”

February 27, 2013 by Doug Lehman Leave a Comment

A face-to-face meeting at a networking event is a great way to connect. We all attend networking events, meetups and social functions but how do we connect and build a relationship or business connection. Do we follow up with a phone call and set up a future meeting? Do we go online later and connect through social media channels. The simple question how do we engage and move the conversation along.

I am obviously passionate about leveraging video and social media to connect. What is the next best thing to being there it’s VIDEO.

In Lehman’s Terms let’s put the social back in networking and reconnect via social channels.

The use of video today is my tool of choice.

*Nothing beats face-to-face meetings, speaking, networking and referrals using video is a great option to reconnect. Get Social with Networking Get Social with Video.

Direct Message Tweet “Video Response” Thank You Followers

September 25, 2012 by Doug Lehman Leave a Comment

In Lehman’s Terms I love to position and leverage video as tool for social engagement. I made a series of videos to update some of my twitter followers on the power of 140 text characters, simple update on my end and attempt to open further dialogue. My method was a direct message tweet that was customized to each follower using simple text and video. My goal was to create a visual and engaging message to connect instantly and thank them for being a follower.

I am not a big fan of automatic direct messages on Twitter after we just connected especially if the message is impersonal. In some cases this technique can be viewed as spam. Get to know me first and build the relationship. Make an effort to do the research and look over my profile first etc.

I do feel it is important to acknowledge new followers and connections on Twitter, LinkedIn etc and a simple value-centric response is warranted at certain times.

Reconnecting my 1st Level LinkedIn Connections Video

March 20, 2012 by Doug Lehman Leave a Comment

First of all, I want to THANK all my first level connections on LinkedIn for connecting. I started using LinkedIn back in March of 2007. If you are open networker with thousands of connections or you have a smaller more intimate network, LinkedIn is a powerful collaboration tool.

Last week, I started to evaluate my social media networks on the basis on connections and contact engagement. Why are we connected? What is our network relationship? In some cases we engage frequently other cases we are a simple contact name on a growing list.

The purpose of this Video Blog Post is to put a name with face using Video to simply reconnect again on LinkedIn. I would love to hear more about you and your business. Please feel free to reach out and contact me if you need any assistance with my network or want to engage in more dialogue. Let’s take full advantage of our connection on linkedIn and collaborate.

Now to put it in Lehman’s Terms

1) Thank You for Connecting

2) Let’s Engage, Reconnect and Collaborate

3) I value our LinkedIn Connection on all levels of engagement

Sagie “The Dog” is not a LinkedIn Connection but a loyal contact. How are we connected?

Event Video Testimonials not a Hidden Treasure

March 3, 2012 by Doug Lehman Leave a Comment

We all know that word of mouth is an awesome form of advertising and video is the next best thing to being at there. Imagine what the value of authentic video testimonials can do for marketing your event. Video can create an experiential marketing element that is more convincing than simple text referrals.

Last month, I was fortunate to cover an event business concept called Hidden Treasures. Hidden Treasures provides a unique shopping experience for people who want to look fabulous without spending a fortune. Hidden Treasures events take place at consignment stores throughout the Atlanta area. We got to capture this event live on video plus a special interview with the founder of Hidden Treasures Tee Copeland.

We can go on and on about how great the shopping experience is at a Hidden Treasure Event but why just read simple text. It is much more efficient, compelling and engaging to watch the videos.

More on Hidden Treasures checkout this the following website www.hiddentreasures12.com

To Put it in Lehman’s Terms “Testimonial Group Videos are a great visual tool to promote and showcase your business events. Authentic Video Testimonials are a treasure; with video it won’t be hidden.

May 19, 2011 by Doug Lehman Leave a Comment

Here is my video review and quick overview of this year’s Digital Summit hosted in Atlanta. I wanted to share with you some of the speakers, presenters and vendors that made an impact on me based on their content and presentation delivery. They all engaged the audience and brought value to this year’s summit. As a conference attendee, you want to learn and be engaged. I felt these speakers delivered that. Unfortunately, I could not hear all the presenters; you can’t be in two places at one time. My mini video review, a quick speaker testimonial recap. More video reviews to come including a full video review of Gary Vaynerchuk’s Book “The Thank You Economy” I will be conducting another complimentary webinar of Social Video Sales Engaging your Customers on Wednesday May 25. I got some great tips from the Summit to pass on.

Please comment, let me know your thoughts, a video response would be awesome.
