Loading ...How exciting. Kathie Thomas, one of our Wonderful Web Women, pointed this out in the forum this week and I had to share it with you. This blog has been listed as one of the top 100 Awesome webmaster blogs by women on the Internet. Wow. How great to be recognised and amongst such great company.

I’m quite chuffed. Check out no. 69. Kathie Thomas is also there (very deservedly so) at 81. Great to see all the blog techniques I have been applying that our speakers have taught us have actually worked.

Add audio to your site and emails with Audio Acrobat
Filed under: Audio Products, Create a product, Podcasting
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...Hi
Today we were lucky enough to have David Barrett from Audio Acrobat spend 2 hours guiding us through Audio Acrobat and answering all our questions. Because this was a bonus call I have made the replay available to everyone for a limited time. You can listen to the replay here: http://instantTeleseminar.com/
To show you how easy this program is to use, I have created a 5 minute summary for you using the program. Just click the play button below to hear my message. All I did was ring up, record my voice, copied the little bit of code they gave me and pasted it into my blog here. Ta Dum!! All done.
You can use Audio Acrobat for the following things:
-
add a welcome message to your site (have a look at the home page of wonderful web women, I just changed it).
-
let customers leave an audio testimonial using a special number you set up with one click (see our testimonial page and see an example) – go on, leave a testimonial. I want to see if it works
-
Easily add the testimonials from your customers to your web site
-
Add your voice to the final page of your shoppingcart to guide people through the process of buying
-
create an audio product (for example an interview) and sell it
-
send people a link in an email and let them download your audio or listen on-line with no need for an attachment – or a website for that matter
-
record an interview you do on your own phone, by adding audio acrobat in as the third person on a 3 way conversation. That way your guest does not need to ring the US if you are both in another country like Australia
-
creat a podcast and add to 16 podcast directories with 2 clicks
-
add video to your web site
-
Easily make it pay for itself and then pay you extra through an easy affiliate program
You can trial Audio Acrobat for 1 month for free then it’s less than $20 per month (and you can cover this cost by recommending it to other people who will benefit).
I’m going to be really testing it out this month and I’d love to hear you stories. Why not share them here on the blog and also on the forum?

Internet Radio – Getting your Voice heard
Filed under: Audio Products, Create a product, Featured Speakers, How To Get Traffic, Podcasting, Women and Marketing
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...Today I interviewed Pat Lynch from Women’s Radio about “Speaking Up and getting your voice heard”. Pat has an incredibly inspiring story of perseverance which I hope will inspire many to stick with your vision, even against the odds. Pat owns Women’s Radio, a large network which features a collective of web hosts who run radio programs on topics targeted at women. These topics are not just on women’s issues but are targeted at women. For example there are radio programs on business, health, travel, music – you name it, it is there or will be.
In this article I share with you strategies to get your voice heard, using both Pat’s website (www.womensradio.com) and Pat’s techniques and your own web site.
How to Spread the word about your expertise through Women’s Radio
The mission of Women’s Radio is to give women a greater voice over a wider geographic area. The influence of this program reaches hundreds of thousands of women. Women’s radio can help grow your business (or your political campaign or social interest group) in the following way:
1. Apply to host a radio program through Women’s Radio. To apply, visit http://www.womensradio.com/Pages/Contact.htm and tell Pat that you heard her on Wonderful Web Women and would like info on how to be a host. Tell her a bit about yourself as well.
2. Be a featured guest on one of the programs. Again, contact Pat through http://www.womensradio.com/Pages/Contact.htm and tell her a bit about your expertise.
3. Contribute articles : You can submit articles as a guest author
How To Host Your Own Program
When Pat moved her radio station from traditional radio to internet radio, she had a wish list of what technology she wanted to make it possible. It wasn’t available at the time so she and her partner, David, contracted a team to develop it for them. The result? Audio Acrobat. I’ve noticed this used on many sites, especially those of successful marketers.
These are just a few of the things you can do with Audio Acrobat:
- record your voice and put it as an intro on your website
- record an interview
- record segments for a radio program or teleseminar (eg intros, interviews, adds, music transitions) and then select what order you want each played in and when to play
- create podcasts with just 2 clicks (submits to 16 different podcast directories)
- quickly put audio on your website or blog without having to be a techy (just cut and paste)
- You can also do all the same things with video
Using this technology you can really simply have recordings of your interviews and ideas on your own website. You can even create a site that has guest hosts who all contribute their recordings to your “radio site” and create your own radio hub for your own niche.
But let’s keep it simple.
Sign up for Audio Acrobat for their free 1 month trial. Create a short audio introduction to your website by ringing in on the number they provide. Then cut and paste the recording to your website. That’s what I will be doing this week as I spend the next month “testing it out”. I’d love to hear your experiences. Here’s one that was shared on the call by Richard from California
“LoL, I can not say enough great things about Audio Acrobat ! What a great tool! I use it with overt 90% of my clients ! TalkToMeGuy Productions”

3 Reasons People Use The Internet
Filed under: Internet Basics, Where to Start
(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...This week I interviewed Michele Pariza Wacek, who shared 3 reasons why people use the Internet. You MUST cover at least 3 to be successful:
1. Content - people search the Internet for information. From what movie is on, to how do I get my child to sleep at night, to how do I make money on-line. The topics are endless. It is essential you create great content.
2. Connection - people need a sense of community and connection. People may look for a date, look for a vendor, a client or keep up with friends. It is essential you have a way for people to connect with you and with other people who visit your site. This is why blogs, forums and social networking sites are great marketing strategies.
3. Entertainment – this is not essential, but if you can entertain people while also connecting and providing content, you will be a great success. This doesn’t mean you have to be funny. Just be yourself and make people think differently. I like Michele’s idea. “Even the most boring person in the world is interesting to someone”.
You can find out more about Michele by listening to her entire interview in the gold member’s area of Wonderful Web Women. You can also learn her strategies in detail with her great training package available here.
