Out-Teach Your Competition: 37signals’ Ideology Meets Online Training (Part 2)
This is the second post I've guest authors for Mindflash. You can view the first post here... 37signals’ Idealogy Meets Online Training (Part 1): Meetings are Toxic
Excerpt from this most recent post:
“Instead of trying to outspend, outsell, or outsponsor competitors, try to out-teach them.”
Think about it this way: There will always be a competitor with more money for advertising, marketing, and expensive client dinners. But if your competitor is in that mindset, what are the chances they are thinking about building their clients by educating them on how to do their jobs better, how to be more organized, or how to save $100 per month by using this special type of light bulb over that one?
In the book Rework, the gents from 37signals give the example of Gary Vaynerchuk. Gary took his small, family-run wine business online and made it a huge success by educating people via Wine Library TV. It was a simple idea: teaching people why this wine goes well with that dish or how this wine is different because the grapes are from Italy. I’m sure Gary never thought that this approach could be so beneficial, but he took his mom-and-pop wine shop from a decent business to a multi-million dollar operation by “out-teaching his competition”. (Check out a few of these videos of Gary!)

Bob Souer: Storyteller Extraordinaire & A True Professional
I rarely ever recommend people and if I do, I would have to have worked with that person for a good period of time before I ever made a recommendation. Today is one of those rare days and the first time I've ever done so in on my blog! If you are looking for a voice over professional for an eLearning course, eBook, commercial or a documentary... you should use Bob Souer.
I was first introduced to Bob when I worked at Global Learning Systems (GLS) / KeyStone Learning Systems (KLS) when I was doing media production. We had hired Bob to do voice over work for an eLearning project for us. I was absolutely impressed not only by the quality of the work Bob did, but his turn-around time was amazing! We sent him the storyboard with our naming convention and when he returned the files to us they were edited, EQ-ed, normalized & exported to each individual file per the storyboard. At that point, I didn't have to do any audio editing at all, they were ready to be put into the project.
Since leaving GLS/KLS about three years ago and coming to Harris Corporation's PSPC group (then Tyco Electronics Wireless Systems), we needed reliable voice over talent as we started the eLearning development. I couldn't think of anyone else that I wanted to work with thanBob Souer. We've worked with Bob on well over 20 eLearning course over the last 3 years and every single time he delivers that same quality.
This would would be a much better place if there were more professionals like Bob Souer. If you are in need of voice over work, Bob comes with my highest recommendations for his consistent quality voice over work, amazing turn-around time, and most of all his professional integrity. If you have the privilege to work with Bob, I can guarantee you will enjoy the experience.

Media-Rich, Flash eLearning Course running on the Google Nexus One
This is a video demo that I created to show how easy it is to convert older Flash eLearning content so that is optimized for mobile devices. There is an actual demo towards the end that shows how smooth it runs on the Google Nexus One (running Android 2.2 FroYo and Flash Player 10.1 for Mobiles).
