The new online meeting platform, Meetn, is securing its spot as a true competitor of Zoom based on its performance, features, and options

The launch of Meetn’s online meeting platform was recently announced. Meetn is gaining traction and importance as it provides a feature-rich user experience that is simple and intuitive to use, in comparison to the alternative of Zoom and other major platforms.

The news of Meetn’s app is gaining attention from a variety of users in different markets, allowing Meetn’s developers to test the platform in a variety of ways. While Zoom and other online meeting platforms are being used by various businesses, companies, and educational institution, Meetn’s focus is on small businesses, helping them find an affordable alternative.

While Meetn is still relatively new, it offers all the significant features that other prominent platforms have at a competitive price-point and a dedicated support team. As Meetn attracts attention, they are allowing some users early access at a lower price-point, with the aim that early adopters will help spread the word.

Meetn is considered a comparable alternative to Zoom because of its features, cost-effective services, and reliable performance. Meetn encourages its users to take advantage of their lower plan or trial option before its larger launch occurs.

Since Zoom and Meetn are being compared to each other because of their similarity and feature capability, users are encouraged to test both platforms out to ensure the apps meet their expectations. While their feature lists are comparable, users will notice their price-points are not. Since Meetn’s target market is small businesses, the price-point and the needs of those businesses must match their app’s offering.

As time progresses and users turn to their chosen virtual meeting platform, the Meetn vs Zoom debate will continue and features will get fleshed out, more advanced, and pricing will change. Because of Meetn’s dedication to quality and customer experience, Meetn is ready for this ongoing challenge.

Virtual meeting platform, Meetn, takes on major brands as they compete for the attention of non-profit groups

Meetn introduces their online meeting platform, as an alternative to Zoom and the other major meeting apps, for the everyday user who simply needs the meeting to run without complication. This is especially true for church meetings and other religious and non-profit groups who need to meet virtually but do not have the technical skills or manpower to properly use the other major brands.  

The options to hold church meetings online increase as meeting platforms, like Meetn, adapt and configure their apps to religious and non-profit institutional use, as indicated by lower price points and available features.

While organizations already use Zoom, Facebook, and other free and low-cost video media to meet together, as written by author Heather Barker from WFHV, businesses like Meetn have seen the struggle those organizations have and are releasing their feature-packed online meeting platform to broadening the choice for end-users. Choosing to work hard to build a lasting, tested, and simple-to-use meeting platform is securing Meetn as a true competitor for church-goers.

Along with Meetn becoming a competitor in the non-profit space, it has real potential to gather a larger audience as church meeting attendees are frequently engaged in for-profit work in their daily lives, resulting in the word being spread to countless numbers of potential users. 

While some users of virtual meeting platforms are becoming tired of online meetings, for others it is still a new and unique experience. This is often the case for church meetings and many non-profit groups which cannot afford the higher costs of the big meeting brands, resulting in less virtual meetings taking place in those cases. This is where Meetn’s platform will fill the gap by creating a flexible, affordable, and easy-to-use meeting app for all uses.

Due to Meetn’s feature-rich options; allowing for any group size, offering a secure connection, and customized options, Meetn is the platform that users will use to host church meetings and conferences. 

Meetn has been allowing some users early access to their platform to test it out and to run full meetings to put the system to work. It has stood the test and the new release is well underway.

Former TV Producer Shares Secrets: How Entrepreneurs Can Get Talk Show Interviews

blank

Los Angeles, CA based Marianne Schwab is helping entrepreneurs crack the code on how they can get talk show interviews to promote their business. Building visibility for a company or product is one of the biggest challenges that an entrepreneur faces and they may seek to increase their brand’s exposure with such interviews. However, the issue is that they have no idea how to go about this. Fortunately, Marianne Schwab is a former network talk show producer and has decided to share some of the biggest insider secrets from the industry on how an entrepreneur can land a TV talk show interview.

“It breaks my heart when I see small business owners and entrepreneurs spend thousands and thousands of dollars on hiring a publicist and get little to no results — let alone land a talk show interview,” states Schwab. She notes that, unfortunately, most entrepreneurs are clueless about the steps they need to take, even though they usually understand how much they stand to gain if they are successful.

This inspired Marianne to launch a free training program to show entrepreneurs exactly what they need to know and consider before they even begin to pitch programs to get TV talk show interviews. In fact, she is on a mission to help experts and entrepreneurs get an edge over their competition and the only prerequisite is that they have a product or service they are ready to promote.

The training covers three things that all entrepreneurs must know to book an interview in order to avoid ruining their chances of actually getting on the show. When it comes to learning how to land talk show interviews, she states that the first step is to help experts and entrepreneurs understand how talk shows work behind-the-scenes. Marianne says, “I am not a publicist, but a producer who helps experts, authors and entrepreneurs get talk show interviews. My approach is as an insider who understands exactly what talk show producers need and want for their programs.”

The strategies that Schwab suggests are based on her experience as a TV talk show producer. Her program has proven quite popular due to her extensive experience in the field. Ngombe Mayunda, author of the book, Thank You America, shared, “I learned new strategies on how to land TV Talk Show Interviews for my book. I recommend this amazing training.”

Marianne’s free training also covers the one strategy that every entrepreneur should master that will increase their chances of getting an interview up to 90% of the time. She give insights on the types of guests that talk show producers need to book on their daily shows and how to become more appealing to them as a prospective guest on programs. She does caution that people can derail their shot at success if they only think how a talk show interview will benefit them instead of thinking about the types of pitches that producers want.

Marianne helps entrepreneurs refine their expert knowledge into talk show segment ideas that appeal to TV audiences. Ultimately the goal is to elevate them from an expert to an authority that will generate more clients and customers in the process. Schwab emphasizes, “Getting the interview is only the beginning. Hitting a home run with your interview is where I come in to ensure that my clients don’t dismantle their credibility with a bad interview.”

Those interested in taking the free training to learn how to promote their business on a TV talk show can connect with Marianne Schwab on Instagram. Through this space, they can make inquiries on the free training to determine whether they can benefit from it and if they’re ready for a talk show interview.

New Direct Response Marketing Service Poised To Change The Digital Marketing Landscape For Rural Ohio.

blank

March 15th, 2022-15Urbana, OH – Looking to change the digital marketing landscape for rural Ohio businesses, BKXX Enterprises, LLC announces the launch of their innovative new direct response marketing agency. This agency is dedicated to helping home service businesses in rural Ohio attract more clients and grow their businesses. With over a decade of experience in sales and marketing, BKXX Enterprises, LLC is poised to bring more exposure to the home service businesses in central Ohio.

Forged out of the crucible of the pandemic of 2020, Brandon saw a need to help local home service businesses get found. The frustrating attempts to hire a local landscaper opened his eyes to many local companies’ problems in establishing an online presence.

“My wife was getting on my case to get our yard cleaned up.” Says Brandon, Owner of BKXX Enterprises, LLC. “The problem was, no matter which company I found, there just wasn’t enough information to make a decision. So we just did it ourselves.”

The websites he found delivered little to no information searching for a solution. The lack of reviews made it challenging to build trust and authority. Brandon realized that these businesses are losing thousands of dollars a day by not having a solid digital foundation to promote their services.

BKXX Enterprises solves the problems that plague local home service businesses affordably. Utilizing a direct response approach, the marketing agency services of BKXX Enterprises set the foundations of the local companies with local SEO, content marketing, and paid advertising.

Called the Business Growth Accelerator, this all-in-one solution allows home service businesses to

* manage business listings on over 60 directories

*stay in touch with customers via social media, text, and email

*manage the reputation of the business in real-time

*understand who the ideal client is with deep website analytics

*follow up a website visit with direct mail touch

The Business Growth Accelerator has already proven to be a great success with a month-over-month doubling of leads generated for J&J Automotive Specialists, a local service business, from its Google Business Profile listing alone.

“When I was searching for an agency to get my auto service shop off the ground, I didn’t realize there were so many local marketing agencies in Urbana, OH. After finding BKXX Enterprises at the top of the search results and speaking with Brandon about the services I needed. I knew I made a good choice when I saw my leads double in the month of February.” John A., Owner J&J Automotive Specialists.

Brandon is excited to have the opportunity to bring more life to his local community and surrounding areas. He hopes to achieve this by helping local home service businesses attract additional clients. BKXX Enterprises, LLC’s success will lead to more significant economic development and increased job opportunities.

For more information on BKXX Enterprises, LLC and their new marketing agency, please visit their website or call (740) 359-7180.
