How many of you have made a promo video for your work?

Post by nkforster » Tue Jun 10, 2014 8:04 pm

I'm running a little series of posts about "YouTube for luthiers" over at LTB. Take a look folks, if you have any questions, ask away.

Hi Nigel

I signed up the other day.
I have enjoyed your articles.
I went through this one today. Definitely some food for thought.
My Son is in his last year at media studying media. He does a great job. So will look into this.
Regards Ross

Ha! Well, I spend quite a bit of time travelling now. Currently I'm in Cambodia. Here is a post from my regular blog about it:

http://www.nkforsterguitars.com/blog/helping-cambodia/

The nice thing about travelling is it gives me the time to both read and write, and learn new things. Last year whilst away I spent a lot of time writing these articles and learning how to put a blog together.

This year I'm writing more stuff, in order to have enough content to keep the blog going when I get back to the workshop. Once I'm back there's no time for writing whatsoever. I have a pile of orders to work through and I like to always build a couple of instruments to be "available now."

Have you seen the survey page? It would be great if you could take a minute to fill it in to keep the content on track.

Hi Nigel,
Liking the new blog! I subscribed expecting this would result in an e-mail notification when new content is added but I am not receiving any e-mails despite more stuff going on. Is this a glitch?

Nigel, there is one significant issue with your youtube vids....

They make me desire guitars I cannot afford, let alone build! :(


But seriously, keep up the good work. You're an inspiration! :D
