Marketing Mix and the IT Organization


Inspired yet again by Chris Brogan, I’m trying an experiment with a video post.  I’ve posted before on IT and marketing disciplines and I though this might be a good topic to create a small series (3 or 4) of short video posts on the 4 P’s of marketing as they apply to the work of the IT organization.

I have to confess that the mechanics of getting this done first time around have proven quite challenging!  I’ve done quite a lot of video editing in the past, shooting film on a camcorder and editing it on my home iMac using iMovie HD.  For some trivial logistical reasons, I wanted to do my video posts on my Lenovo laptop with my Microsoft webcam and using the free Windows Movie Maker software, which I’d never used before.  I had all sorts of problems – especially with sound.  Some of these were learning curve issues, others related to “free” software with a less than perfect user interface (compared iMovie) and pretty weak help support.  Anyway, here is my first effort.  Let me know what you think – is this worth the added production effort?  (I find writing so much easier!)  Thoughts on a poscard please…
