You know, I’m kinda like a box turtle in the shrubs, munching and moseying my way thru life, following the trail less trodden and mostly undefined. With my heart doing the navigation instead of my head, I wandered into a zone called environmental transformation, and created a book called Lifelong Landscape Design: Environments of Health and Longevity. Just say’n, cuz I’m the speaker. Of course, the publisher cut the title down to 3 words, but the intent is clear Do you want a property that will nourish your body and soul for the rest of your life?Well, hang on to your hat, grandma and grandpa, because I’ve got the secret formula. Please bring your mother, father, cousin Sarah and Uncle James, assorted children & friends to this wonderful event.Yvonne Wade and Virginia Almand are co-chairs and Adelaie Burton is the design director… this is a most hip, fun, informative MUST BE THERE Happening! to order a book: https://dargan.com/poppyshop and please do contact Cherokee Garden Library’s, Staci Catron at http://www.atlantahistorycenter.com/cms/Lectures+/494.html |

Creative Video Production on a WHIM
On a whim, thinking I was doing something easy, on Sunday afternoon 7 days ago (sept 2), I set up my iphone on a tripod with a clamp to steady it, spouted out 6 tips segments, page opener plus sales page message before a big storm with raindrops came pelting (I was outside in the woods on a deck far above land). The camera was 3 ‘ from me and I was by myself. Put video clips into imovie ( Mon,sept 3) added a logo and a tad of music and was “in business”.
With my trusted VA’s help, we created a beautiful (3) training videos page with webinar slot/sales page location at the end of the bar and an imbedded video explaining what it was all about ( sept 5), plus bonus flowchart/transcript material. Shared the complementary training videos as prelude to my webinar ” How to Convert your Property into the Oasis of your Dreams” yesterday (Sat sept 8).
Launched this campaign “5 Tips to Immediately Improve your Property” on thurs,sept 6 at 6 pm ST ( waaay too late) . BUT… had 89 ppl opt- in immediately and got very favorable reviews of the video training. 14 showed up for the webinar on Sat ( less than 2 days after launch).
I guess the webinar would have been enough. Who knows…will leave it “live until Tues at NOON”, then do the live follow-up video. Sadly, I must change sales page and three will be NO MORE opportunity to do the PREWORK as a SPROUT. Now must head into sharing the event instead!
