HD Video is The New Punk

PUNK MARKETING - TAKING BACK THE CONTROL OF THE PRESS

What do you do when you get slammed in the media? What happens when you get hack reporters or an irrate blogger who slams your reputation and credibility on his network or websites?

You fight back of course.

In fact, you have just as much leverage, and power -- as they do. This was never the case in the 1970's. You had to deal with the media and play by their rules and pray for love of some sort.

Its alright if nobody loves you in 2009. The only thing that really matters is that you have a group of people who will stay loyal to you. They are the ones who will be paying your bills in the days to come. That is the kind of world you are living in these days. That is your public.

The fact that you can level the playing field is incredible. When someone pushes you - you can push back. This has become acceptable.

You do not need permission for anything.

This is the case for HD video and web commercials. It is the new Punk. Just like the ultra violent rock movement of the mid 70's - Web 2.0 is the new punk rock in a sense. It is a homeade, public controlled power force that rocks the social structure of PR.

Ted Cantu on Doing Business In Michigan

When I meet with people I do not accept the following “offers”.

1. I will not buy property from you.
2. I will not “sign up” under your MLM or MLM ventures
3. Absolutely no pornography
4. I will not join your church
5. Do not ask me for a money loan
6. I do not create companies for people I meet off the street and work for a “commission”
7. I am not looking for partnerships
8. I will not consider leasing commercial space from you
9. I am not looking to hawk your products
10. I will not join, distribute, or promote your non profit
11. No barters
12. No trades
13. No Amway, Send out Cards, Vitamin drinks etc.
14. I will not endorse your political party or charity

As you can see I am not your "Typical" Michigan businessman. I never claimed to be. But I do not succomb to the alphabetical stereotypical Midwest list of ordinary practices.

As I have claimed before. I was born in Michigan but I was not raised here. This just goes out for the record and to keep the record straight.

Multiple Listings R Us

Check this out:


Don't submit your URL address multiple times during the day. Also don't submit hundreds of URLs from the same website. A much better technique is to create a site map with all your links on one page. Link to the site map from your home page so that the search engine spider can find all your pages easily.

Getting Multiple Listing on the Same Search Engine
There is an easy way to get multiple listings with the same search engines. The trick to this is to change the title of your page every month or so. This tricks the search engine robots into thinking that it is a whole new page. I have also seen sites that leave out the www when submitting their site.

==================

After all the crap I had to endure over my discovery of "Multiple Google Listings On The Same Page" I must say I found this post sort of a relief. Someone else is playing the "Cantu" game over here.... but the advice they give you here is pretty bad.

• Are people, (outside of India) really submitting single URL pages to search engines these days? This is somewhat of a waste of time. My bets for getting listed multiple times really center around the following criteria:
  
  
• Web Video
• Podcasting Posts
• PR - Press Releases

My book, "The 30 Day Business Makeover" has outlined that there are 9 families of search engines including, video, podcasting, articles, press releases, hubs, social bookmarking and so on. It is important for you to have media posted on all of these areas.

In either case - no matter what you believe - the truth is slipping out on the web after all this time. Pretty fascinating isn't it?

Team Bluestein To Release The Facts Regarding Website

Local Detroit PR Firm Clears Phony Allegations Concerning Frank Bluestein

Detroit, MI – Small time web forum site, www.Boggleheads.com, which is based out of Chicago has boldly stated inaccurate claims aimed at Metro Detroit businessman Frank Bluestein. The claims stated inaccurate information regarding Mr. Bluestein and even included threats of bodily violence, (ex: http://www.bogleheads.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=435419&sid=e87fdfdb40cb3bdac3f898dd6c39c217) stemming from last month.

Detroit PR Rep Ted Cantu, i-Cantu Media LTD, was hired in to straighten out the matter along with attorney Joseph Dadich, (Dadich Law). The disturbing note included a death threat aimed at Mr. Bluestein. The owner of Boggleheads could not be reached for comment despite many attempts to reach him. When attorney Joe Dadich finally did get through to the sites owner he adjusted the life threatening post slightly but refused to take the post down entirely.

The site is run by Chicago based, Alex Frakt, and can be contacted at www.whois.org. There you can find his contact information including email address and phone number.

“Its unfortunate that blogs, and forum owners take on the stance of irresponsible journalists. Not only do these types go out of their way to discredit someone but they also feel the urge to enforce death threats and other unpleasant proceedings. We are in the process right now of taking immediate and direct action against Mr. Frakt. Due to the sensitive nature of this matter I cannot go into the exact course of action. That will be left up to our legal team.”

We are also working directly with Google who is protecting the shadowy, “Ron” who is in cohoots with Boggleheads.org and has made other derogatory comments on blogs owned by Google. By law and through cooperation with law enforcement they are required to hand over personal and discreet information especially when death threats are concerned.

As a result, Cantu and Dadich will be releasing a special report regarding cyber bullying and the legal guidelines that you have as a customer and participant on the World Wide Web. The report is also going to outline the considerable amount of risk that a perpetrator puts himself in when delivering death threats, inaccurate information regarding trials in process.

At the time of this writing Alex Frakt and his cohort “Ron” were not available for comment.

The report comes out July 8,2009
Ted Cantu can be reached at 1.888.305.2532 for more information.
