SMTV: Why Northeast Oklahoma Businesses are Not Using Foursquare






This was a hard video to shoot. I was just not feeling it, and it probably shows, but it was important to create the content, discipline myself to create and push on through. It didn't help that I had popped a blood vessel in my right eye (Dr Bussey says everything is fine) and I look like some kind of pitiful vampire.
So I want to thank my 1 reader for hanging in there and being a faithful viewer. Thanks man. I appreciate you.

Why businesses are slow to adopt Foursquare in the Midwest area.
I think it's for a couple of reasons
1. they don't know it's out there
2. If they do know it's out there, their too busy to stop and take a look at what it's all about
3. if they do stop and take a look, they may not be sure out to go about putting together a small campaign to help themsleves.

And so this is why I'm creating this vlog...so small town business owners can quickly discover and learn how to use new marketing tools to make for money for their business.

Why do you think? Any thoughts as to why businesses in this area seem slow to use these new location-service tools? Am I sitting too close to the camera? To far away?

SMTV: Intro to Whrrl





With all the trouble Foursquare has been having lately with marketers trying to get in touch with the burgeoning company, it was refreshing to be able to pick up the phone and get in touch Whrrl's Community Manager, Jeanna Barrett to discuss a problem I was having. The problem was solved in a matter of minutes.

Thanks Jeanna. Sorry I got your name wrong at the first of the video.
