While The Cat’s Away… The Mice Make VIDEO!
While I was away last week my assistant, Soosan, took the new “Website Video Secrets” course Mike Stewart and I released and made her own video.
I think you’ll be able to see my influence in the humor (can’t hang with me 40 hours a week and not get a little warped!)
But I’m really proud of her for creating this video because she did it ALL from the information in the course (NO HELP FROM ME)… she did it all herself.
It’s a little rough, but for a first try it’s excellent… and that’s all that matters… DOING SOMETHING. Don’t worry about it being perfect, don’t worry about it being “right”…. JUST DO IT and it will get you closer to your goal!
So check out Soosan’s video (it relates to my trashy Christmas display)

Dear Soosan –
I took your advice. I’ve taken a break every time I felt overloaded – haven’t done a thing in 3 weeks! Can you help?

P.S. The danger in learning from Jim is that your videos turn out to be fun, too! Congratulations – great job.
Jim,
After watching your DVDs I made my first (slightly underlit) video last night. Thanks for a great product. Like you said the first step is to DO something, and from there you tweak.

Jim,
Marry Christmas – happy holidays!
Videos are great fun and load fast. (I put you on ‘my feeds’ so I don’t miss any.)
Soosan is inspiring! …wasn’t she on a WB TV show once?
Jim,
Howdy and Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year!
Twin screens aye? Boy oh boy are you making me jealous buddy! I may have to scrape up the dough to get this product… Of course you always have good products!
Susan or is it “Soosan” lol,
Anyway, that’s you firts one aye? Well you did very well indeed! Great illustration, short with
a great message that we all need to hear! Good job!
I was going to tell both of you to have fun over the holidays, but I can see you’re already doing that…have a good one!
Hi Jim,
Thankyou for you email and demo.
I don’t wish to sound rude or patronising but I think you got it right when you said ‘Trashy display.’ You did ask for an opinion which is as follows:
You have an incredible tool. Could you not put it to better use?
Enjoy the holidays!I see you have already(smiley)
So what’s wrong with your display? I think it looks great! I used to live on Long Island–so I’ve seen a lot “trashier” displays! They make a competition out of it.
Enjoyed Susan’s video as well–very good for a first effort!
Viewing of both videos was very smooth at about 7:15PM Dec. 23–like watching t.v., no choppiness or breakups at all. I have a broadband connection, but sometimes have problems with video on other sites–like Comcast and MSN–not here!
Happy Holidays to you, and thanks for the great information and entertainment you provide for free.






Hi Jim!
I thought Susan’s video was great – and funny! If she learned how to do that with just your course, I WANT that course!
Oh yeah – LOVE your Trashy Christmas Display!!!
Have a great holiday!
