SAMPLE OF A 60-SECOND COMMERCIAL

My name is Tyrone Turner, and I’m affiliated with a company called Send Out Cards.

What Send Out Cards does is help people to send real greeting cards over the Internet.

Not e-cards, but REAL greeting cards like you would buy at a card shop.

Send Out Cards prints the cards out, stuffs them in envelopes, puts a stamp on them, and mails the cards to your contacts for you. It can even be done in your own handwriting, but you never have to touch the cards.

It only takes about a minute to send one or even one thousand cards. This is good for busy sales people because it helps them to save time, energy, and money, and helps you to stand apart from the competition.

The kind of referrals that I’m looking to receive are sales manager and marketing directors in the following industries: insurance; and real estate.

If you know anyone like that, please let me know.

Like Maya Angelou said, “People will forget what you say, and they’ll even forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”

My name is Tyrone Turner, aka ‘Ty the Card Guy’.

Thank you for your attention.

Thanks.

    We had a nice turn out. I just wish that more members from our Meetup group attended. All other attendees were from other social media forums (e.g., Ning and Facebook).

Who attended?

       This was a really cool event! Sorry about incident with the young man from Oregon with the barking dogs in the background, but we did mute him out and then dropped him from the video conference when he couldn't control his situation. Video chatting is the next best thing to actual face-to-face networking.
