Hello Everyone!
Here is a quick TIP for a better viewing experience if you are experiencing buffering.
1. Click Play…
2. Wait a few seconds and then click PAUSE.
3. Let the video load (you’ll see the bar advancing…)
4. Once the loading is done, you are ready to watch the episode…buffering free. Enjoy!
Thanks for your feedback and patience!
We are still in the testing stages in an effort to work out a few video technicalities to give you not only the best quality possible, but also the loading speed necessary for you to enjoy your viewing experience.
Let us know:
1. Your internet speed.
2. How your streaming experience was? Did it stop a lot to buffer or was it a smooth viewing experience.
Cheers,
Isabelle ;-)
Here in the jungles of Nicaragua with so-called dedicated 256k, the streaming was excellent.
Note: when I view your site, the order of the episodes were #1, then teaser, then episode #2. Took me a bit to find it. But then, I hadn’t had my first coffee yet.
Oh ya baby. Great way to start my day.
A nice reminder that it is easier to do it then dwell on it.
I also realized that I couldn’t quite answer your three key questions. So I’ll have to do that… not dwell on it.
Off to get my non-negotiable done. It will be a steep curve of change to get this ‘procrastinator princess’ off her throne.
Are your episodes aired every Thursday?
Can’t wait for the next one.
Well done!!
Heather, thank you so much for all your support and participation. I am thrilled that you enjoyed Episode #1 and that you are raising the bar by making shifts as a result of it. That’s the purpose of LeapTV! Yes, all episode will be launched every Thursdays at 6:00am PT.
Can’t wait to come and see you guys in Nica in November…
Cheers, Isabelle
Great launch video… I’ll be back next week!
Understanding what Branding ISN’T is genius! I love the examples from both Provident and Leapzone. Based on the two sets, it seems that Branding is basically a commitment to having a simple clarity of your best efforts and how they affect your clients.
Another way to see the difference might be that Branding in it’self doesn’t need a budget. The events and actions resulting from it will however!
Fraser,
I am glad you enjoyed our first episode! Yes, you are right, the true essence of branding is being clear about who you are, what you do and how your make life better. And most importantly, the understanding that people don’t buy WHAT you do…they buy WHY you do it. Stay tuned for Episode #2…it’s a good one!
Cheers, Isabelle
Hey! GREAT content – of course…. Your energy, passion enthusiasm pop out of the monitor. Good strong and clear audio – often the weakest part of web based video for me.
Techie note: watched episode #1 on a Mac running OSX with a G5 Power PC processor and 512 RAM. It loaded with almost no buffer to play. Off to check it out on my ipad and then the stoopid PC network that I am forced to work on.
Keep up the great work!!!!! We love you.
TJ
TJ, I am glad that you enjoyed Episode #1. Yes, content is KING for us as we always want to give huge value in every single episode. Thanks for giving us feedback on the tech side also…we truly appreciate it. Cheers to many more great episodes.
Loved them all!
Great value Isabelle.
Doable, easy suggestions ideal for large and small companies to take action with.
Sharing the blupers and adding fun lightened it up.
Kudos and thanks for sharing.
Janet
Thanks Isabelle,
It’s the first time I have the opportunity to watch your series via a local TV station here in Los Angeles.
Talking about #1 Branding 101, I love the way you explain this concept.
Thanks for sharing.
Ben
You are very welcome Ben. I am glad that you got value out of that episode. Branding is my absolute passion and I definitely want small business owners to understand branding better so that they can become extraordinary…’cause today, you’re either Extraordinary or you’re Eliminated…mediocre is out!!
I look forward to your thoughts on other episodes.
Cheers and welcome to LeapTV.
Isabelle ;-)
