In this case, after going through a bunch of different platforms, I’d like to share with you two very valuable tools that could transform your business now or in the near future. The majority of businesses I see, have not considered/implemented video yet so, what are you waiting for?

Video Lobby

These guys don’t offer a real time video tool, they already hooked up with video experts such as Qik, Ustream and Justin.tv. Their value covers something specific and very important, especially when making videos for business:  “a branded, unique site”. So basically, you can use any of the sites mentioned above to broadcast live but you put on a branded mask that will make your company’s channel look 1,000 times more professional.

This free service also pulls in comments automatically  from Twitter and Facebook, and allows users to submit questions directly from the show’s page!

Unfortunately, their video is not on You Tube yet, so you can click on the image below that will take you to the Video Lobby home page and then click on “See Video Lobby in Action” on your left.

6 Rounds

These guys are giving a very interesting spin to video chatting.
By now, I guess the majority of the people got the message about social media and “interaction, people with their own voice, etc, etc”. Now,  6 Rounds are taking that usual message to the next level.

With 6 Rounds you can do things from co-browsing YouTube to playing games, adding funny effects to a live video conference (really cool!), interacting on Facebook together with your contacts or even shopping for things online together with your friends or family members. It’s focused on social interaction, however follow every second of the video and if it’s necessary pause it and think about how could that be used for your business (Twitter and Facebook were never created exclusively for business and look at what happened now?) . If you start testing/implementing any of these tools early enough, you will be a BIG step ahead in your industry

Enjoy the post? Come on, make a comment below and share this!

Best,
