Remember the Duke Mansion…while planning your holiday parties this season

The Christmas and New Years parties are probably the most anticipated social events of the year. If you havent already booked a spot for your holiday parties wed like to remind you about the Duke Mansion. There are very few places in town with ability to boast the Southern charm and history that the Duke Mansion can. On top of being a beautiful spot for festivities, the food is top notch regardless of whether you have 15 or 300 people at your soiree.

For more information, please contact Tim Miron at the Duke Mansion at 704-714-4400 or by email tmiron@dukemansion.org

Why Video is the Right Choice for your website, your lobby, your tradeshow booth, etc.

Friday, November 16th, 2007

Television (TV) has taught us one thing-people would rather watch than read. Studies show that people retain:

10% of what they read

20% of what they hear

50% of what they see and hear

A video on your website, in your lobby, or in a satellite office is better than a television commercial, because it is delivered at precisely the right moment when you have your viewers attention. Video emotionally engages your viewer in a power way. It creates a lasting impression, long after the credits roll.

A recent study compiled by Dynamic Logic in 2004 showed that a single exposure to an online video increased Brand Awareness by 10 percentage points, while 10 exposures to an ad banner only raised awareness by 6%.

Just 10 years ago, it would have cost a small fortune to have a custom video production of your product or service-but not anymore. As you know, electronics are becoming more affordable, and that is good news for you.

One last thought: www.mbreleases.wordpress.com reports in its Online Video Advertising Effectiveness Study: of the 80% of viewers that have watched a video ad online, 52% have taken some sort of action. The report also stated: of consumers who made a purchase in the last month, 48% said the Internet drove initial awareness, 57% said they learned more using the Internet, 55% used the Internet to decide where to buy, and 56% made the final purchase decision using the Internet.
