So you asked me on a Saturday, so I feel like I can ask you on a Saturday (😘), but I saw Devra's ask about 500 a day, what is that? Have you promised yourself that you'll write 500 words per day? How do you keep on track?

I’ll allow it. Let’s go.

500 words a day isn’t a promise that I’ll write 500 words every day (you know, except when I’m coming up against a deadline and I really gotta put my nose to the grindstone), but it is my little personal vow that when I do write, it’s in increments of at least 500 words. There’s a couple reasons for that, and for why 500:

a) I’m very goal oriented. It’s like a competition with myself. Setting that goal makes me actually get some work done on my story.

b) 500 words doesn’t seem like a lot, but it is. 500 words, for me, is about an hour if I buckle down - maybe an hour and a half if I’m stressing over every word or very very distracted. But it adds up! If I do 500 words a day every day for a week, that’s 3500 words. That’s basically an entire chapter of some of my shorter fics, like Swan’s Seven. When I was working on Wherever You’re Going, I’m Going Your Way, that would be halfway to my month goal. Regardless, that’s really good progress for a week.

c) 500 words is a goal that, at least for me, tends to result in even more than that. It’s not always the case; sometimes I’ll barely make 500. But I’ve found that, as miserable as the first 300 words are to write, I’ve usually hit my groove by the 400ish mark. I start figuring out really what I want to say in the section I’m writing, or get into a pattern with dialogue. Oftentimes, I’ll end up blowing right past 500 words because I’m finally on a roll and end up with something closer to 700 or 800, which feels really great.

I fully admit that this mostly works because I’m an author who doesn’t edit much - I write what I write and I agonize over every word while I’m writing and then it goes to the beta when I’m done - so by and large, I have entirely forward progress that I can track with the word count. But it’s really worked out well for me, and now for @ohmightydevviepuu!

(Other things that work well for me: having my beta set stupid low goals that she slowly increases - “Bet you can’t write 90 words in the next 15 minutes”. Because I’m stupid competitive and blowing past those goals and writing 150 words in the 15 minutes feels great.)

It’s Fic-Writer Friday Saturday! Send me asks about my writing process, wip/fics, or headcanons!

Studying for the TOPIK with a habit calendar

Recently I’ve been feeling a little aimless in terms of my Korean studies (and really my life in general). Now that I’m intermediate level and can survive easily while living in Korea, I’ve gotten super lazy. I haven’t really been studying this past month AND I stopped watching/reading/listening to Korean content.

I figured maybe the problem was that I lacked a tangible goal. So I’ve decided to take the TOPIK this January 2019. It’ll be my first time but right now I think I’m about level 3, so my goal is to get 4 and maaaaybe 5. Who knows.

I also have some other goals I’d like to work on like reading more in general (literally only been watching TV for months), writing fiction and exercising, so I made a little habit tracker calendar thing this past weekend:

So the point is to do just small baby steps everyday. In the past, I’d assign myself huge daily targets like “read 100 pages a day, write 2000 words a day, etc” which is just not sustainable for me with a massively energy-sucking full time teaching job. No wonder I always ended up quitting.

But some tasks don’t need to be done everyday which is why I separated the calendar into daily and weekly tasks.

Daily Tasks

The way I found my “baby steps�� for the daily tasks was by doing each of the tasks I wanted to make into habits during the weekend when I had all the time in the world. I timed myself and then set my daily goals to be only that which I can do within 45 minutes per task.

For example, on average:

Reading 1 chapter of an English book = 5-10 min

Writing 500 words of fiction in English = 15-45 min

Reading 1 chapter/section of a Korean book = 10-20 min (the book I’m currently reading has short sections of about 4-5 pages)

Writing 1 “essay” in Korean = 20-30 min (it’s not really an essay. It’s just a new way I’m trying out for studying vocab because I’m so sick of flashcards and Anki. Everyday I’ll write 1-2 paragraphs using at least 5 new vocab words, and at the end of the week, I’ll re-read them all. If I can’t remember the meaning of the words, I add them back in the list to be used again for the next week’s essays.)

Meditating for 20 breaths = 2 min or so

So at the very most, my daily tasks can all be completed within 2 hours a day, which is very doable for me. I usually split it so that I do my English reading and writing in the morning and my Korean reading and writing in the evening. And I meditate right before bed.

In terms of studying for the TOPIK, for this month I’m taking things slowly, so my only focus is input (reading/generally consuming Korean content) and output (speaking and writing in Korean) everyday. Next month, I’d like to start doing practice tests.

Weekly Tasks

I put the number of boxes in the column for the number of times a week I want to do those tasks. For the ones with 1 box, I can do it whenever as long as it’s within the week. I enjoy the flexibility instead of trying to do it on a certain day of the week.

All except one of my weekly tasks are centered around studying Korean. The last one is my exercise goal. My aim is to get fitter and more toned hence the strength and HIIT focus. I tend to do this in the morning after reading but before writing.

Effectiveness?

It’s actually been super effective for me so far, and let me tell you it has NOT been easy. Literally 2 days in I caught a nasty cold (I’m still in the throes of it writing this in a daze so excuse me please), which has made it hard to complete the tasks.

But since the tasks are so small, I’ve been managing to still fit them in even though all I want to do is sleep ahaha...

The visual aspect of the calendar is the key to its effectiveness for me. I have it posted in an area of my apartment where I see it 90% of the time (I live in a studio so this is super easy to achieve). I keep thinking about how I’ll have to stare at this calendar for 1 whole month and I don’t want to be constantly reminded of my past failures in the upcoming weeks by having blank spaces :P

So it’s been rather motivating to say the least.

Make Your Own?

If anyone would like to make their own version of this, here’s a link to it on Google Drive. This version is view-only. So what you have to do to get an editable version is go to File > Make a copy (this will copy it to your Google Drive account) or File > Download as... (to get it as a Word doc or something else).

Change it as you see fit to help you keep track of your goals. Plus, you can change it month to month. At the end of each month before making the next month’s calendar, you can evaluate how your past month went and if your priorities have changed, tweak accordingly! That’s what I plan on doing next month.

A GMAT story

Hi guys, I just came back from the test center with a big smile on my face. Got a 700 (Q47, V39). As many of you guys remember, I joined this site after getting a 420 back in October. I was feeling so down that I chose "positive soul" as my username. I have to say that the road was not easy, but I found very helpful all the support I got from you guys. I am exhausted, so I will write in more details in the next few days. Now, I am going to sleep. Remember to never give up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you all for your kind words. I am very happy to see that all my effort and sacrificies paid off, and, hopefully, my experience will help others to beat the GMAT. Before I start, I want to thank all the active members of the GMAT Club, specially, ywilfred, professor, vivek123, HongHu, GMATT73, coffeeloverfreak, laxieqv, ps_dahiya, Futuristic, fig, rhyme, u2lover, haas_mba07, necromonger, kevincan, and yezz. I really learned from you guys. I take my hat off. My GMAT experience is a very LONG one. I took the GMAT the first time in 1995, when it was still on paper and I was considering the idea of going for my MBA right after college. I got a 560!! I knew this score was too low to try to get into a top school, so I decided to take a Kaplan course. After 3 months, my score improved a little to 590. Luckly (I guess), I landed a very good job in an European Multinational, so I decided to put off the MBA for a couple of years. The years went by, and I started to climb the corporate ladder, so every year I put off the MBA. The funny thing is that during 4 years, my GMAT books traveled with me around the world. In October 2006, (10 years later), I took the GMAT again, obtaining a very VERY dissapointing score 420 (29Q 20V) I knew my preparation for the test was not optimal, but a 420 was just too low. For my preparation I used the OG and my old Kaplan books. I was consistenly scoring above 550 in sample tests, so I was expecting a low 600. I will never forget that day, it was the worst day of my life. I went back home thinking I was never going to get into a decent MBA program. Out of my dissapointment, I found strength to look for help. So searching the web, I found this amazing site. I posted my experience, and I got encouraging words from some of the member. At this point I saw light at the end of the tunnel. My second try: I became determined to at least break the 500 level. I read many posts regarding preparation materials, and strategies. So I gave myself 3 months to retake the exam. Looking back, it was a mistake because I was working 60+ hours, and under a lot of preassure to deliver a project by the end of January. I went ahead anyway because I wanted my "revenge". My preparation consisted on reviewing the same OG and Kaplan materials that I used before. I also started to solve some of the problems in the GMATClub. I studied on and off during the first 2 1/2 months, and started to put 2 hours during the weekdays and 8 hours during the weekend. I got a 510 (36Q 20V?) this time. Believe it or not, I was happy that I improved my Quantitative score. Final Try Eventhough, I improved my score, I knew I had to improve. I was not near the 650 I need to even dream about applying to a top MBA. Then I decided to make it happen. I made a decision to score a 700. I was no longer going to be complacent with myself. So I started to make changes in every single aspect of my preparation. Thinks that I did, I believe it made a difference this time around: 1. I committed myself to put the time and effort. Work and travel was no longer an excuse. I made the time. I promised myself I would study at least 2 hours per day. No matter what. This was very difficult, and I did not do it every day, but al least 90% of the time. I became more focus on achiving my objective. 2. I gave myself a realistic timetable to take the test. I knew, I was not going to improve my score by 200 points in one month. At least not with my working schedule. This was one of the mistakes I made in the first 2 tests. However, I knew that I had to be serious with this issue, otherwise history would repeat itself. 3. I put together a very complete list of study materials and resources. This was my list: - OG Materials: GMAT review 10th Edition, Verbal review and Quantitative review. I also obtained old GMAT paper tests from their website. - Kaplan Materials: Kaplan GMAT 2005, Kaplan GMAT 800 and Kaplan GMAT Verbal. - GMATprep Software: Downloaded from the website. - LSAT sample tests - GMAX online - GMAT Club Forum and Challenges. - GMAT 1000 Questions I could have gotten more books, but I wanted keep it as simple as possible. I knew I was NOT going to improve by doing all available questions, but by changing the way I study (I will develop later). 4. I totally changed my study approach: a) I decided to cover the basics: I came to accept that I did not have a good grasp of all the topics (Math and Verbal). It was that simple. I was really troubled by very simple rate and distance problems, and I was a dummy when I tried to solve number properties. What did I do: I took the GMAX online course. I will not recommend this course to everyone, but if you make an honest self-assessment of your skills, and think you need help. I highly recommend it. Note: This course by itself will NOT help you to increase your score dramatically but it will provide you with the basic knowledge you need to apply some strategies. b) I started to use an error log: I cannot tell you how many times I read about it. I always said, I will defenitely do it, it makes sense, etc..... BUT I NEVER DID IT (sounds like anyone you know????). Deep in my mind I thought it was a waste of time and energy: What did I do: I just did it. It was really a pain in the begining. But I cannot tell you how much time I saved, and the things I discovered about myself. After going over the GMAX course, I discovered that 75% of my mistakes were careless mistakes, such as I did not multiply correctly ( ), I did not read the question properly, I did not read all the answers, etc. I think this made a huge difference because on test day, I was right on the ball. I knew in which questions and calculations I was prone to make mistakes, and I paid a LOTof attention. c) I always tried to solve a question on my own, I did not seek help until I knew I could not solve it on my own. Before, I used to try a problem, I got it wrong, I will see the explanation given. BIG mistake. I was only doing the most convinient thing but I was not really learning. What did I do: Sometimes I would spend 10 minutes on a question (obviously not during a sample test), trying to solve it. You might say "what a waste of time", now ask me if got a similar problem wrong. Very few times. I made a comittment to think and learn. d) I never jumped to solve a question before spending a few seconds thinking about the quickest way to solve it. I read once on post, not to attack right away a problem using "brute force". This is a skill you need to develop, and it is very difficult to think about it when you know that the clock is your enemy. What did I do: When I was practicing, I realized that If I could not solve a problem under 1 1/2 minutes, I was using the wrong approach or I did not know the concept tested. So I tried and tried until I found a faster way. e) I decided to learn from the GMAT questions. In some courses, you read about traps, question types, etc. I knew about them, but I never actually thought about them when solving a question. I never said to myself, "this is a global question, so answers that are too specific will probably be wrong....". I knew the theory but I never applied it. What did I do: For every SINGLE question, I would analyze each answer and find WHY it was right and WHY the other 4 were wrong. This way you learn to identify first hand what the GMAT test makers are throwing at you. I was getting so good, I could eliminate in a few seconds 2 to 3 answer choices. Depending on the question, you could eliminate the wrong answers by knowing your scope (even in math) and identifying how GMAT tries to trick you. In summary, Re-do the questions and read every single answer. Identify the reasons for being right and wrong. Do this and you will identify patterns that repeat themselves all the time. Once you do this on YOUR OWN. You will work faster and more efficient. 5) I participated more actively on the GMAT Club. I have to accept that I always felt apprehensive about participating because some of you guys are VERY GOOD. However, once I improved my skills, I started to try. I answer some questions wrong but I learn from them. Don't be intimidated. I found myself learning a lot, trying to explain some of my answers. Sometimes, this process is a great teacher. For you guys that feel intimidated, I can tell you that some of the questions I found in this site were just too hard for me. Some of the explanations were very hard to understand. In summary, I felt dumb. But on test day, I was so ready, I found very few questions I was not able to handle 6) Practice with the GMAT Challenges. They were not easy, but they were great practice. The concepts tested were right on the money, and the time constraints really pushed me to my limits. I scored over 80% after my 6th challenge. It was a good tool to measure my improvement. 7) When I felt overwhelmed, I looked for the GMAT Club for inspiration.. Things were never a piece of cake. I had my ups and downs. I really struggled to overcome my low score stigma. There were days that I would try 10 questions, and I would get 7 wrong. I just convinced myself that it was possible to do it. I logged in everyday for inspiration. (However, I have to say I felt frustrated when members posted their 700+ score on their very first post. Why?, because they made look easy to get a 700, while I was killing myself to get reach that level.) No hard feelings because you probably deserve it. My point is, If you want to improve, you have to work hard for it, and the GMAT Club has examples of people who have done it. Dream that it is possible just as I did. 8) I took care of myself: There is a very good post about improving your score by exercising and eating better. I cannot say for sure If it really help me, but I believe it did not hurt. I convinced myself that this change would help me score higher so I started to exercise 3 times a week and eat better. I made no radical changes and I lost 10 lbs. I will not discuss about the test itself as I don't believe I can add any value to comments made by other members. However, I had a scary moment when the power went out in the middle of the verbal section. The computer shut down and it took 6 minutes to restart and recuperate the test. I believe I could have done a better job on the verbal part since I have to guess the last 5 questions. Maybe I could have reached 720 and make a 300 points improvement. My final GMAT score was 700 (47Q 39V). Finally, I think I need to talk about things that I could have done better. GMAT can take a huge toll on your personal life. The obsession to score higher hurt my relationship with friends and family. I distanced myself from them for 2 reasons: 1) I was ashamed of my score (since I live in an environment where people seem to get 650+ all the time ) and 2) I felt guilty when I took some time off. Don't let this happen to you. Find a balance, and try to get support from your friends. Good luck, and remember to be positive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Rhyme mentioned, I got accepted in the Wharton/Lauder Program. I want to thank you guys for your support since the begining. I really worked hard on the applications and followed some of your advise. The only thing I can say about the application procress is that it is a pain in the %%$!!!!!!! In a serious note, I think you need to market yourself well. Tell your story and be clear on your goals. Schools really look for people that will make a good use of their MBA, thus marketing the school for them. So you know, I also applied to: Harvard....haven't heard from them so I think they dinged me. INSEAD: Accepted London Business School: Accepted. Columbia: dinged after interviewing It has been a long journey since my 420 in the GMAT. Although, the road was not easy, I am really satisfied with the outcome. It is really a dream come true. Good luck guys in your projects and if you need anything, please drop me a line. Remember to be POSITIVE and the only obstacle to achiving your goals is yourself. Your friend

6 for the writers ask thing, maybe?

6: how do you get through writers block?

Gosh, I wish I had an easy answer to this question!

First off, I feel like there are a couple different kinds of writer’s block. There’s “I don’t know what happens next” writer’s block and there’s “I don’t want to write this scene” writer’s block and there’s “my brain won’t let me write words” writer’s block.

For the first kind, I try to outline more-or-less comprehensively. Before I start, I jot down bullets on each section of the story and what needs to happen to move the plot forward. Sometimes there are bullets that say something like “idk something happens,” and that’s okay. You’ll get to those eventually. Then, I’ll take those bullets and group them into scenes and write sketch overview of each of those scenes. From there, I start writing the thing. This tends to help with an issue I used to have where I would write just the bits I wanted to write or just the images in my head and then lose steam because I didn’t know what to write next.

For the second kind, I kind of loosen my outline a little. If I’m stuck on a scene and I just do not want to write it, I’ll skip to the next one or to another one further along. If it gets to the point where I’ve written everything but that scene, I write down the garbage sentences in my head to sketch it out, usually dialogue and very little narrative, and move on. I always find it way easier to go back and make a sketchy dialogue-only outline like that into a real scene in my second draft than to force myself to write the whole thing out straight off if it’s being difficult.

And the third kind…well, straight up, I go through days at a time when I don’t write anything because my brain won’t focus on words. I open a document and I sit and I stare at it and suddenly it’s three hours later and I’ve mindlessly refreshed tumblr but written no words. Or, if I’ve turned the wifi off, I’ve fallen asleep at the table. Or, if I’m in a cafe or something, I’ve zoned out and am people-watching.

It happens. And it sucks. But it happens. Sometimes I can trick my brain by setting a timer and writing for X minutes and then allowing myself to watch teevee or take a walk or take a nap or whatever. Or, “I’ll write my daily minimum of words for the day and then I can goof off.” And sometimes that works! Sometimes I do that and hit my stride and keep going, and sometimes I write for those ten minutes and then close my document and do something else for the rest of the day.

But sometimes it just…doesn’t work. Sometimes, no matter what I do, I cannot make words happen.

And, you know, that’s okay, too. Because this isn’t a job and I’m not getting paid and while I’m desperate for validation and want to get these things out into the world, I’m also not doing it for anyone but myself, and if that means that sometimes I need to spend a whole day napping and coloring and watching teevee and not getting 1,200 words down like I want to…sometimes that’s what has to happen. And usually, eventually, once enough of those days pile up, I sit down with a timer and it does work. And I get those ten minutes done, or those 500 words down and the next day it’s a little easier and then after that, I’m off to the races and back on track.

Some other things that tend to help:

Stop writing when you still know what’s going to happen next. Sometimes that’s the middle of a conversation or the middle of a scene or whatever, but if you stop mid-action, that means that you at least know what the next few sentences are going to be, and sometimes it’s easier to keep going once you get started than to sit down and say, “Okay so, we left off with the end of that scene and the next scene is going to be…..um……”

I used to try and get up an hour early to write in the morning before work. My schedule changed and now I have to get up a little after five to catch a bus and, as much as I love writing, I am NOT getting up at 4am to get those words in, so that doesn’t work for my schedule any longer. But I liked it because I was just tired enough to write down all sorts of shit I might second-guess when I was more awake. Stuff I wrote at five am needed a lot of editing in the end, but it flowed much more easily than stuff I try to write AFTER work.

Similarly, understand when there are times that it’s just not going to work for you. 90% of the time, I can’t write when I get home from work. I can’t. I’m just too tired and there are too many distractions. So I don’t beat myself up if I don’t get anything done in the evenings.

Leaving the house is frequently helpful for me. A change of scenery and NOT being in my familiar relaxing place makes me focus better.

All of these things are SUPER subjective. There’s no universal writing advice because everyone’s brains work differently. I’ve had friends try to do the 5am writing thing and hate it, and I’ve had friends who can write a zillion words once they’re off work and their brain is out of office mode, and I’ve had friends who can’t work in coffeeshops because it’s too loud. Everyone is different! But, if you are struggling, these are some things to try to see if it helps any.

#writing is hard

Law Firm Video SEO: How To Rank Videos on Page 1 (2019)

New Post has been published on https://hititem.kr/law-firm-video-seo-how-to-rank-videos-on-page-1-2019-8/

Law Firm Video SEO: How To Rank Videos on Page 1 (2019)

Ok so we are making this designated tutorial for the Esteemed lawyers america. That is an unique tutorial, you will not find this any position else, that is an specific real step by step easy methods to make a video for top level keyword terms, within the industries which can be very competitive, including without doubt the lawyers. So whether you wish to have to put in writing for DUI lawyer in you city, or private damage or something targeted discipline you are taking in terms of being a lawyer; that you may simply generate leads correct away. On this video we’re absolutely going to show you how to do it in not up to ten minutes. So i have really broke it down into five specific important steps. First thing you need to do when you don’t have already got Wirecast for Youtube; just Google it, you could surely buy it on their website, they have a free trial.And it is a $500 product at this factor. But it’s more than worth it, we really show you that on this tutorial exactly how one can earn cash with it correct away, and why a small $500 funding is very clearly worth it, and you could sincerely generating money in there as good and that’s lovely fast so. As soon as we’ve Wirecast downloaded and installed on our pc, the next thing we need to do is go to Youtube, log into your channel. Once you’re logged in, go to inventive studio.In creative studio what you need to do is click on reside streaming. If in case you have not ever streamed an even before this can be a dummy channel surely. Click on pursuits, you will must enable live flow. To allow reside move you’ll have to get an automatic name from Google. So i am going to go ahead and verify. I’ll pause this. Okay so we simply received the live phone call from Google, they provide you with as six digit code, put the code in, your channel is validated. So you hit proceed, the next thing you need to do is go ahead and create a reside occasion. Whilst you create a are living occasion, the encoding of the software via Wirecast is among the essential approaches it ranks the video, but also the title of the video is surely what we relatively want special closer to out keywords. Shall we say we need to rank for excellent DUI lawyer. And i’ll pick a metropolis and state blend right here that is nearby to me.I’m in principal Florida so i’ll say, DUI legal professional Valrico, which is suburb of Tampa. I need to put my cellphone number in right here seeing that there are individuals who simply see the telephone quantity, make a rapid resolution to present me a call than honestly watch the video. So having it within the title is just as fundamental, since it simply indicates up on Google, you have got your phone quantity correct there on the entrance page. I prefer to goal, and that i advise you to target two key words per video. So we’re going to do first-rate DUI attorney Valrico, then i will selected another suburb, then we will say prime personal injury lawyer, and we will selected an extra suburb, we can say Seffner, which isn’t too some distance from right here as good. We wish to selected the occasion to begin about 30 minutes after we’re doing the event.And proper right here it’s about 11 o’clock my time almost. And so i am going to head ahead and put within the occasion for about 11.30. I want to make certain we hit customized encoding. Description and tags we will go back to in a while. That is now not a giant of a deal. Probably the most essential importances is area. So we chose Valrico and Seffner, they are proper subsequent to one another, so we will be able to choose Valrico underneath video vicinity, hit search, Google finds it, now we hold that in there. We would like the language to be English, and all this other stuff we can go away that how it’s. We can go forward and hit create hobbies. Now it creates the event, we have the possibility to chose a thumb nail proper away. It is type of major due to the fact the video does rank correct away about ninety five% of the time. Thumb nail for this video, hope you do not intellect penguins being your logo. Whilst that is doing that we are going to chose a customized ingestion. Takes a 2d to load there. We’re going to opt for the circulation, we don’t have any streams so we’re going to create a flow.Let’s just name this Wirecast. And we wish to be in 480p. So we hit save alterations pick encoder Wirecast for Youtube, we’re identifying our string, whe are opting for Wirecast as our encoder, now we need to go forward and hit save alterations. Event saved successfully, so we are going to go ahead and go to the reside manage room. Correct now we aren’t receiving any knowledge from our encoder. We have now done the whole lot you must do on our finish right here on YouTube, So what we want to do subsequent is go to Wirecast. That is the software that we now have downloaded. Very first thing you wish to have to to do is go ahead and import media. Single file, import media and that’s what’s going to permit you to decide on the video you wish to have to rank for. Now most likely i am doing this for an illustration, so i’ll just chose a video from my laptop, then we hit output, and output settings.Now what it will do is pull up a window, which we have got to hit authenticate, with a purpose to join the program to our Youtube account. That manner it may well encode the video. So we have that authenticate button, automatically opens a tab, And it says Wirecast wish to manipulate your Youtube account; we need to enable that. When we do it comes proper again to the application.At that factor — oftentimes you would get an error code that pops up and that is ok. Well, there we go, now it pulls up simply as your Youtube related to the program. We need to make sure the occasion is the one we wish to chose, we best have one on this account, so it robotically pops up. However you probably have a couple of movements you certainly wish to go and determine and make certain the video you want to create a reside occasion for right now. So we hit okay. Now the application is equipped to go absolutely. Just to recap, remember file, import media, the video suggests up down here, go to output, output settings and that’s how you authenticate your Youtube account, join the software to Youtube. Now at this factor this is competent to head, as quickly as we hit this move button it is going to encoding the video to Youtube.But first, what we must do is we have got to go back to Youtube, and we need to join the program within the genuine live event. So first we hit move, now Youtube will begin to decide on up the software. There we go, and hit preview. My failed to add that. Refreshing, although already did. Picked it up automatically. Preview, it will ask you might be you definite to preview that, you say yes. Then at that factor is going to monitoring whether the circulate is just right, the wellbeing status of it, this is excellent. It’s continuously good at the beginning. At that point we wish to go ahead and begin are living streaming the video. It takes a 2d for Youtube to go ahead and prep the video for live steam. So whilst that is going down, k it can be taking place turbo than I idea, great. So go ahead and hit start are living steaming, we want to go forward and live streaming the occasion.Now bear in mind, we chose it to be 30 minutes ahead of time. So we now have plenty ahead and return in and edit the video anyway. So that’s not a video, it’s already streaming right here, so technically this is already enjoying survive Youtube, nevertheless it is not going to certainly host for one other half-hour so we have now time. Now what we do is go forward and hit the video, And i’m going to pause it and you’ll hear the video playing. One of the vital negatives of reside streaming an event whilst you encode it with Wirecast, or some other program, or in case you simply do it straight by way of Youtube, both method you might be still going to have the video enjoying even as streaming. So you’re going to wish to make certain there is not any noise within the heritage, you might be also going to maintain in intellect the video is going to play, you’re going to hear the quantity for the reason that it’s reside streaming from your pc. So i’m going to head ahead and click on play on this. I do endorse before I hit play, I want to can help you know, I suggest that I play at least two or three times through.I advise three times by way of from the commencing considering the fact that sometimes it will absorb a lot of CPU to your pc, quite a lot of pc utilization. So in the top nook right here you are going to see CPU usage and it says 29%, it is virtually going to move up to 90-95% for a majority of the video. So one of the vital video may not encode correctly unless you’ve got a committed server for this. So that is without doubt one of the negatives of it. But for those who let it play by way of two or 3 times, then which you can certainly go via and edit it. I will show you the way to do this here in a 2d. So i’m going to head ahead and hit play and let this video encode, that manner you can really see an actual reside ranking on this demo. I shall be again in about five minutes. Okay so we’re sincerely nonetheless are living streaming right here. I want to contact upon one thing earlier than it’s finished reside steaming.Obviously that is an illustration so we aren’t too concerned about this video. However I wanted to show you here throughout the reside steam, it is going to happen, it’s going to say the backup circulate is dangerous, it will say matters are usually not looking good. What we’re looking for is where it says the wellbeing is excellent proper here. Then in the course of the time it’s going to say bad, just right, bad, just right relying on the CPU of your pc. It’s not that large of a deal, and it is usually why we file the video two or 3 times over. Meaning you let it run, a two minute video, this one has been reside streaming for over six minutes, considering the fact that i am going to let it run three times through. I’m going to move by means of and edit it on the end. So, ok so we simply hit stream and that clearly grew to become off the live steaming. Going to hit blank shot to stop the video from playing, so it isn’t regularly enjoying in the history of your laptop. Then from there in Youtube we are going to hit stop streaming, it’s going to prompt us, we are saying k, it stops steaming.From there is will have to routinely go to our video manager. So we click on that and video will pop up in our video manager here. You can see it’s still processing. It does take about 5 or ten minutes to system, depending on the length of video, then at that point we can click on edit, and that’s after we go in and edit the video. That manner if it suggests up three times we will reduce out the great ingredients and the worst parts, and make the video as excessive high-quality as viable. In the intervening time, what we’re going to do is click on the video at the same time it is still importing. And what we will do is i’ll certainly exhibit how this video, whilst it’s still processing sincerely, adn we cannot even play the video, it’s still continue to exist Youtube. And these movies when encoded like this, and in reality optimised with a title, with out even striking in tags, with out even hanging in a description in any respect, in view that that is not even uploaded but.So in Google we can certainly see how this video goes to exhibit up for the phrases we are concentrating on. The 2 keyword phrases DUI legal professional Valrico suggests up on the front web page. As you will find it says uploaded ten minutes ago. We return to Youtube, this thing is just not even executed processing but. I cannot even go in and edit this video, and i am already on on the front web page of Google. For a excessive level turn that is– .

FAQ

So… what exact is a Reverse Mini Bang?

Oh good, an easy one to start with!

A Reverse Mini Bang is basically a reverse of the “Big Bang” challenge, and on a smaller scale. Artists basically have free reign (within the theme of the Bang) to create a piece of fanart, which is then matched by the mods to participating Authors who have similar tastes and preferences. The Authors will then write a fic (3,500 words minimum) based on the artwork they’ve been assigned.

Which characters can be used?

As long as at least one Inner Senshi (i.e. Sailors Venus, Mercury, Mars and/or Jupiter) and at least one Shitennou (Kunzite, Zoisite, Jadeite and/or Nephrite) are featured in your art/fic then the sky’s the limit (ok, not quite, there are one or two itty, bitty limitations… see below for those). You’re also welcome to include as many of the other Sailor Moon characters in your work as you like.

Do I have to stick to traditional pairings?

There’s no obligation for the Senshi and the Shitennou to have any sort of romantic attachment to each other, but if you do choose to link them romantically, there’s also no obligation to match them into traditional pairings (e.g. Venus x Kunzite etc.) It is worth noting, however, that rare-ships might be a little harder to match up than the more popular ones, as welcome and fun as they might be (if it’s really what you’re inspired for, though, I’m sure we’ll be able to figure something out).

Basically, as long as you have one Senshi and one Shitennou in there, the rest is up to you!

Do we have to follow a certain canon?

As for which source material you can use, the choice is yours - 90s anime, Crystal, PGSM, the musicals, the manga… all are permitted. You’re also free to choose which timeline you’d like to set your work in: Silver Millennium, modern day or Crystal Tokyo.

Setting your art/fic in Alternate Universes and Realities is also permitted but unfortunately, crossovers with other fandoms are not (as it might be too difficult to find a suitable artist/author match up), e.g. fanart and fics can be set in a fictional version of the Middle Ages, with the characters being members of an important political dynasty, but you can’t make Kunzite a secret Targaryan who challenges Cersei Lannister for the Iron Throne and rides Drogon into the sunset, burning all of Westeros as he goes.

Because this challenge is open to and inclusive of all Sailor Moon characters and ships (so long as there’s a Senshi and Shitennou present), we would like to remind all participants that absolutely no shipshaming or kinkshaming will be tolerated. Please respect each other and the all-inclusive tone of the Bang.

What’s the timeline?

Artist and Author sign-ups open: Tues 18 April  Artist and Author sign-ups close: Mon 1 May  Artist check-in: Mon 15 May  Art drafts due: Mon 29 May  Art drafts assigned to Authors: Thu 1 June Check-in for all participants: Fri 23 June  Author check-in: Fri 21 July  Posting period: Mon 14 August - Fri 18 August

Pinch Hitting posting period: Saturday 19 August - Sunday 20 August

How do I sign up?

Sign-up posts featuring a Google form will be posted on Wednesday 18 April 2017. You can sign up using your Tumblr or AO3 account, or any other platform you prefer, as long as we have a valid profile url and email address through which to contact you.

There will be one form for Artists and a separate one for Authors. Both Artist and Author sign-ups will close on Monday 1 May.

Is there a limit to how many works I can submit?

There’s no limit to how many pieces of art or fics you can submit, but if you do intend to submit multiple pieces of art or fics, then you must email the mods BEFORE the sign-up deadline (Monday 1 May) to discuss the issue (ssrevmb at gmail dot com).

Can I co-create my fanart with another Artist or my fic with another Author?

Sure! But please email us to let us know. You must also ensure your co-Artist and/or co-Author receives sufficient credit for their work.

Can Artists/Authors choose their own counterparts in the Reverse Mini Bang?

Not this time, unfortunately… but if this thing takes off, then it’s definitely something we can look into in the future!

How will I be assigned an Artist/Author counterpart?

When filling out the Sign Up forms, you will be asked a series of questions about your preferences (this is for us as mods to get a general idea of who we can pair with who later on). Once all the artwork has been submitted (Monday 29 May), we will then match up Artists and Authors with similar tastes.

Authors, please bare in mind that we might not be able to meet all of your requirements exactly, but we will do our very best. One of the main aims of the Reverse Mini Bang is to get Authors inspired by the work created by our talented Artists, so there’s a lot of creative freedom for all, with plenty of room for some good collaboration (and who knows, you might even make new friends!)

Can I sign up as both a Artist and an Author?

If that’s your jam, who are we to stop you?! Just fill in both the Artist and Author forms.

Rules for Artists

Artists can begin working on their pieces from the moment they sign up.

Fanart can include (but is not limited to) drawn or painted artwork (both traditional and digital), comics, digital manipulations, fanvideos and fanmixes/playlists. Craft art is perfectly acceptable as long as the final piece can be photographed and submitted to us via email. If you have any other ideas for your artwork which has not been mentioned here, please email the mods at ssrevmb at gmail dot com.

As Artists, the point is to inspire your Author, so give them as much information as you can about your art and why you’ve chosen to create such work. Your work needs to capture their imagination - after all, they’re weaving a story out of the world you’ve created, so help them along! Collaboration is actively encouraged!

Art Submission Info

Submitted art files must be at least 400 by 600 pixels in size. Fanvids must be at least one minute in length. Fanmixes must contain at least 8 tracks as well as front and back cover art (minimum size 500 x 500 pixels). Links to the songs must be included with your submission.

Submitted artwork should be at least 70% done (art is to be completed entirely before the posting period of Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August), with enough detail that authors can clearly make out what’s going on in your picture.

Art submissions must be emailed to the mods at ssrevmb at gmail dot com by Monday 29 May along with the following information in the body of your email:

Artist username: Tumblr profile url: Email: Art number ?? of ??: (if submitting more than one) Artwork title: Rating: (G - NC17) Featured Characters: Sailor Moon Canon: (Manga / 90s Anime / Crystal / Musical / Hybrid) Timeline: (Silver Millennium / Modern Day / Crystal Tokyo / AU / AR) Highest fic rating: (G - NC17) Additional details/requests: (This is where you put all the details. What the artwork is about, what you’re hoping for the Author to use, what inspired you etc.) E.g.:

“Would love something with plenty of fluff and a hint of angst. I’ve got some headcanons and would love to brainstorm ideas with the Author.”

“I’m a total Venus x Kunzite shipper, but I have this secret love of Mercury x Kunzite. No gore please.”

“I had this super angsty reason why Nephrite’s glowering in this piece, but maybe you could come up with something specific? Or just interpret it how you like!”

“I just really wanted to see how Rei, Nephrite and Michiru would interact together, since they’re all sort of psychic.”

Place “Art Submission from [username]” in the subject line of your email.

NB: Art pieces created for this challenge are NOT TO BE POSTED ANYWHERE ELSE before the posting up before the Posting Period (Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August).

Rules for Authors

After the art work has been assigned on Thursday 1 June, Authors will have approximately 8 weeks (until the Posting Period: Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August) to write a story with a minimum of 3,500 words. There is no maximum word limit.

The fic must be original and related to the artwork assigned. Collaboration between Artists and Authors is actively encouraged. There is no obligation for your Artist to create additional art unless they wish to. Please work closely with your Artist to talk through interpretations of the artwork. Keep in mind that elements in the artwork need to be present in your story. If there is a pairing specifically shown or suggested, then that is the pairing you should focus on. We also encourage you to discuss any squicks before you start writing and to respect these throughout the event.

Where does all this glorious creativity get posted?

Authors will post their work to the SSRevMB Collection on AO3. If you don’t have an AO3 account yet, please make one at some point before the fic submission date. We will create and moderate the Collection, but control of the fic is entirely yours to upload, edit and delete.

Artists who do not have an AO3 account should send their Author the finished piece/give their Author the links to the fanmix or fanvid BEFORE the Posting Period (Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August), which can then be placed within the fic itself or in the notes section (with full credit to the Artist and any additional links the Artist requests).

Artists who do have AO3 accounts can post up their art on the official submission date allocated to them during the Posting Period (Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August) to their own account. The Author and Artist can then exchange links to their respective works for posting purposes.

Am I required to have an AO3 account?

Authors must have an AO3 account as they will be posting their own work to the Collection. We don’t require Artists to have an AO3 account, but we definitely encourage it.

Can I post up my art/fic anywhere else?

Until the date allocated to you during the Posting Period (Monday 31 July - Friday 4 August) please DO NOT post your artwork or fics anywhere else.

After your official submission date has passed, and once you have posted up your art/fic on AO3, then you are free to do as you like with your work!

Have a question left unanswered by the FAQ?

Any questions or issues can be addressed to the mods at ssrevmb at gmail dot com or by sending us an Ask.

The Week in Theater Reviews. The Week in Theater News. The Week in Theater Videos.

#Stageworthy News of the Week. In the first Equity-approved professional musical production to open in America in the five months since the pandemic lockdown began, the Berkshire Theater Group’s literally sanitized and social distanced “Godspell” felt like a miracle, at least to the critics, who sound grateful to have attended.

Held in a tent in the parking lot with its 100 audience members required to wear masks and sit at least 14 feet apart, the show featured a cast of 10 who had quarantined together in a house for weeks. “For the artists, it’s a brave new world. (Full disclosure: My daughter is in the cast.),” writes Josh Getlin in the L.A. Times. “They perform six feet apart…flanked by plexiglass shields on wheels that protect them and the audience as they sing. For good measure, in their pockets they also have masks, which they put on periodically during the show.”

Lily Goldberg The Berkshire Eagle: Faith in each other and the importance of sharing live art is what drove these theater-makers to submit themselves to twice-weekly testing, what helped them adapt to plexiglass and temperature checks, what gave them the bravery to leave their friends and families to live with one another, and what allowed them the chance to share, with tears and triumph, their joyful noise with audiences once again. And that’s as sacred as anything.

Bob Verini, New York Stage Review: When Nicholas Edwards as Jesus sings hopefully (and beautifully) that “We will build / A beautiful city” you know he doesn’t mean one without face masks, but one without prejudice or injustice, one in which Black lives absolutely do matter and people can disagree without reviling each other. In 50 years I’ve yet to encounter a single Godspell, pro or am, that didn’t seek to address its historical moment. This one succeeds more than most..

Ben Brantley, New York Times: When the script calls for physical contact… action and reaction are delivered in separate, distanced places. As a metaphor for how so many of us have been living since March, this form of theatrical communication feels both heartbreaking and valiant. We adapt, we make do, even as we long to return to the age of the handshake and the hug” [After Nicholas Edwards as Jesus sings “Beautiful City”] “he looks both ravenously hopeful and devastated as he tries to envision a radiant future. I never thought I’d say this, but I know exactly how Jesus feels.”

(None of these critics were…uncritical, which is an answer to the panel discussion I talk about below entitled “Can Critics Criticize during a Pandemic.” Goldberg found such “COVID-conscious updates to the show” as “one-liners about stimulus checks, quarantine sourdough and mask acne” to “still feel too raw.” Verini: “I was eventually worn down (and worn out) by how much is lost on stage behind plexiglas.”)

Theater has reopened on other stages as well — such as Barrington Stage (outdoors), nearby in Massachusetts, for its production of the solo play “Harry Clarke,” and Tokyo’s Kabuki-za Theater, where the performers one-up those in the Berkshires by wearing not just mandatory masks but the occasional face-guard.

But onstage theater is many months away for New York City, so the consensus goes, even as the city continues to reopen in other ways, such as the Bronx Zoo. (That’s Abby, a resident giraffe, posing beside NYC Cultural Affairs Commissioner Gonzalo Casals.)

The Week in Reviews

Homebound Project 5: Homemade Benefit by Laurie Metcalf, plus Lena Dunham, Kelli O’Hara, Brian Cox, Austin Pendleton, The Homebound Project has raised more than $100,000 for No Kid Hungry, but it’s been more than just a worthy endeavor. There has been enough that’s been artful and entertaining in each of the five editions to make them worthwhile

Howard on Disney Plus: The Broadway talent who rejected Broadway

“The last great place to do Broadway musicals is in animation,” says Howard Ashman, in “Howard,” a new documentary on Disney+ that offers a simultaneously sad and inspiring look at Ashman’s life, his work, and his death from AIDS at the age of 40 in 1991. What it doesn’t offer is a very encouraging take on Broadway.

No Blue Memories: The Life of Gwendolyn Brooks No Blue Memories: The Life of Gwendolyn Brooks,” was presented on a Chicago stage during the centennial of the birth of the noted poet, the first African-American to win a Pulitzer Prize in any category. Now, three years later, it is being presented as an hour-long video for free online at Manual Cinema from August 10 to 17, as part of the company’s tenth anniversary “Retrospectacular,” presenting four of its most popular shows. What the video retains is the play’s delightful jazz and blues infused score, which helps bring forth the poet’s own jazzy rhythms…What the video of “No Blue Memories” doesn’t do well is show what Manual Cinema does at its best — or, indeed, what Manual Cinema does, period. The videos of their shows may look like animated features, but to call them animations is to miss the beauty and ingenuity of what the company creates.

Critics Corner

Can Critics Criticise during a Pandemic? A 90-minute video

“As the work of artists evolve with the restrictions of COVID-19, do critics also need to reassess how they look at performance? Four critics, Loo Zihan, Teo Xiao Ting, Jocelyn Chng and Germaine Cheng discuss their responses as more and more performances go online, and whether it has led to a recalibration or softening of their critical eye. What really is the role of the critic during a crisis? Do we put criticality on pause, in favour of a more empathic, care-centred approach as other pressing issues loom large?”

It’s worth noting two things here — first, despite the apparent slant of the description, a poll of the audience watching the discussion revealed that 82 percent of them find criticism to be an essential act during the pandemic. Second, none of the four panelists, nor the moderator, consider themselves primarily critics – they are artists first, which arguably skews the discussion at hand — but also reflects the state of criticism these days.

The death of Theatre Criticism The great critics always began before they were forty. Who are their equivalents today?

What’s it like to be an American academic paper-writer?

I'm a professional paper-writer with Doctor-My-Document of Boston. My favorite thing about working as an academic paper-writer is how smart it’s making me. I research important topics all day, every day! It doesn’t even feel like work. Most of the time, I’m writing papers in APA format. My clients are nurses, teachers, or students of Business Administration. Some of them are bilingual/multilingual English learners with language barriers, and others are busy professionals who don’t always have enough time to write papers. My second favorite thing about being a paper-writer is making my own schedule. Usually I work only 3-4 hours in the morning and 3-4 more hours in the afternoon. I think that’s reasonable. It gives me the option to bring my laptop to one cool work atmosphere in the morning, go somewhere else for lunch, and then do my second work session in a different cool work atmosphere in the afternoon. When I first started working as an academic writer-for-hire, I could only complete a few pages of writing each day. I’m a faster paper-writer now, but even when I was writing very slowly it was a big step up from the job I had previously. When I switched to writing papers, it gave me money and had more freedom. The paper-writer lifestyle The best work day I’ve had as a professional paper-writer was a trip to the casino. I was working on a research proposal for a dissertation. I’m not going to say what my client’s topic was, because that’s top-secret, but I can tell you I was designing the kind of research study where the researcher interviews people to get their opinions about something.

My job was to write a review of research articles about my client’s topic and write about their research findings. Then, I could come up with a research question for my client to try to answer in her dissertation. I started my day with a morning run, and then I called an Uber to bring me and my laptop to Union Station. I got on a bus with about 20 senior citizens who were going to spend the day at Foxwoods. On the way there, I skimmed through several research articles and wrote about 500 words. When we arrived, I continued my work at a breakfast restaurant inside the casino. I challenged myself to write at least 1,000 more words before playing any of the slot machines. I reached that goal, and then I kept writing for 90 more minutes because I had so much momentum! Something about being in the high-energy environment of the casino gave me a lot of inspiration and ideas for how to write about these research studies I was reading. When I finally allowed myself to gamble, I limited it to $100. But after putting just $20 in a “progressive” jackpot machine, I won $700! Right in that moment, I made a decision to ignore that win and go right back to my paper-writing. I didn’t put a single dollar of that money back in the machines. Instead of reinvesting my winnings back in the slots and losing it all, I went to the Atrium Bar to drink some coffee and finish writing my client’s paper. I wanted a Bloody Mary, but I didn’t order one because I have learned that a single sip of alcohol takes away my ability to write. Seriously. I lose all my paper-writer mojo if I try to have a drink while I write. I know William Faulkner was able to get hammered and write, but I need to be sober. I stayed at the casino hotel that night and had an awesome time. It was a Friday, so a few events were happening, and I met people from all over the world. Around midnight I finally got that Bloody Mary and talked with some people from Australia. That’s a typical workday in the life of an American academic writer-for-hire. Advice for someone who wants to work as an academic writer-for-hire? An academic writer-for-hire needs to spend a lot of time researching, writing, editing, and revising each paper. The research is what takes the most time. But over the years, I learned to catch myself each time my attention started to wander. "You are only making money when you hear the clicking of the keys," I often remind myself. Now that I know how to manage my mind and my time, I can complete several hundred words in each work session. ***If you need to hire an academic paper-writer, you can email [email protected] and ask for a $15 TRIAL.

College Research Paper Writing Help

From: Derek Gendron,

CEO, Educational Writing LLC

Following are surefire ways to get done with your college research paper. If you could give just 5 minutes to read this page then you'll learn how to write your college research paper in such a compelling manner that even the most judicious teacher will give you an "A".

You are writing a college research paper for the first time and you don't have a slightest of idea about focusing and narrowing down the research paper topic

You make up your mind to write, set the mood and environment, smoke cigarettes, drink

a dozen beverages to regain focus but, nothing happens. just can't write for some reason

All of your friends are partying while you've jammed yourself in your room, staring at your irritating computer screen, trying to write something.

Are you interested in knowing how can you do that? I bet, you are. Here's what one of our customers had to say about the research paper writing help we provided.

вЂњI Have A Research Paper Writing Assignment Due, My Topic is Global Warming. I Have No Idea What To Write About. Any Suggestions?вЂќ

I was asked to write a research paper on global warming, and I didn't have any clue on where to start, and it had to be of at least 20 pages. I also needed an outline so I can have a guideline along my way in writing the research paper.

I collected lots of sources of information about global warming, but after all my research, I could not prove that all the "Global Warning is a result of CO2 output". The challenge was to find any new factual data on the subject since 2000. I really needed to someone to help with research paper writing. It was then one of my friend referred me to this website.

I am really thankful that he did because the research paper I got was excellent. They changed my topic to "how Al Gore and his cronies are scamming the Earth?" and then supported the statement by some great facts like:

Co2 is supposedly supposed to increase water vapor in the air (never actually been proven) as it can't capture heat on its own.

Antarctica _gained_ 500 sq km of ice in 2008. 98% of it is growing, but environmentalists only show the one peninsula (2 of its land mass) melting.

The earth naturally gets 180 billion tons of Co2 a year (90 from volcanoes, 90 from the sun), yet man only puts up 6 billion tons. On top of that, Co2 makes up only a tiny fraction of our atmosphere

I got an A, which I expected. A big thanks to you guys.

Product Marketing | How to Reach #1 on Product Hunt [Case Study]

If first impressions last, then NinjaOutreach should have been doomed by our bungled product marketing long ago.

We first launched NinjaOutreach on Product Hunt—a popular app curation and discovery platform—in 2014.

I wasn’t part of the team yet at the time, but our founder, Dave Schneider, did admit the launch could have gone better.

Granted, we still managed to get featured as #10 on Product Hunt’s homepage—and on our first attempt at that.

Fast forward to 2018, with new team members, a significant rebranding, fresh look, and copy, we relaunched NinjaOutreach version 2.0.

And this time around, even with a small team and a low-budget product marketing strategy, we made it to #1 on Product Hunt’s homepage.

We eventually ended the day at #2, but compared to our previous rank of #10, that was a significant jump!

Of course, we didn’t achieve all of this without a plan.

And in this article, we’ll share our product marketing strategy for how we made our comeback and reached #1 on Product Hunt.

Background story

“It’s a ‘90s software for a 2016 price.”

Such was the comment of one unimpressed user who never made it past his trial period.

Despite those harsh words, we couldn’t deny that although we had more customers than most of our competitors, we were definitely behind when compared to their sleeker designs, cohesive branding + content, and smoother UI.

As Dave said, NinjaOutreach started out as a “desktop app that everyone hated.”

Ultimately, this lack of harmonious branding, coupled with clunky UX both in-app and on the website failed to adequately convey the true value and functionality of our tool.

Also confirming this theory was an in-depth study from a firm Dave hired, which found that potential customers rated us low in trustworthiness.

Why so?

Apparently, this was because (surprise, surprise) they didn’t find our “look” particularly trustworthy.

Fortuitously, this came at a time when I, along with our Head Copywriter, Daphnie Loong, was already pushing (short of nagging) the team for a redesign.

And with all the new supporting evidence, the ball was in our court.

It was time make the shift, and we were finally ready to give NinjaOutreach its badly needed makeover.

The rebranding was a monumental effort that led to monumental changes.

Save for the official business name, everything about NinjaOutreach changed. And not just changed, but taken to a whole new level.

Excited to spread the word about these upgrades, Dave and the marketing team thought it would be a good idea to relaunch NinjaOutreach on Product Hunt.

So, our Asset Manager Evgen Schastnyy assembled a small team, and with the guidance of Dave and our co-founder Mark Samms, operation Product Hunt Comeback was set in motion.

About Product hunt

What is Product Hunt?

For the uninitiated, Product Hunt is an online community, app curation, and discovery platform where users share app news and recommendations with each other.

It’s essentially like a Quora or Reddit for apps, where apps are curated and either get upvoted or downvoted by the community. The platform also allows commenting, so each thread comes with relevant discussions about each app.

How Product Hunt Works

Members who post app recommendations are called product Hunters, so to post an app is to “hunt” it.

App developers are called Makers, and they can also hunt their own products.

Aside from typical audience engagement and upvotes, Product Hunt has its own algorithm which determines how an app gets ranked and whether it gets featured on the homepage.

Product Marketing Tactics We Used to Generate Buzz

In a moment, we will share a detailed step-by-step guide to our product marketing strategy.

But for the impatient, here is a snapshot of the product marketing tactics we used to generate buzz for the app.

Social Media Banners

As Dave mentioned in his Reddit post, social media buzz was key to our product marketing campaign’s success.

Before we launched, our design team already crafted customized banners reflecting our new brand. Each one was tailored for Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook.

Additionally, we had special “milestone” images designed for celebrating if and when we hit 100, 300, and 500 upvotes.

Below is a screenshot of the images we used on our Twitter page.

In-App and In-Site Messages For Long-Time Customers

As an app that’s been around for over three years, we’ve accumulated our own loyal bunch of customers and site visitors who were more than happy to support us.

To help mobilize these long-time users, our Head Copywriter Daphnie edited the templates announcing our launch along with a section to fill in with the link to our listing.

We used Daphnie’s final copy on our pop-up message for returning site visitors as well as in-app notifications for customers logging in.

Eventually, we updated these notifications to cover each new milestone that we hit.

Newsletter Announcement

Daphnie also published our Product Hunt announcement through our weekly newsletter, where we have over 10k subscribers.

Team Member Support

To widen the reach of our product marketing campaign, everyone in the team went through their own networks to share the news.

Here’s Dave’s post on his Facebook.

Now that we’ve shared our main product marketing tactics, let’s move on to a more detailed breakdown of how we executed our strategy.

Our How-To Product Marketing Steps For Reaching #1 on Product Hunt

Dave and Evgen organized a list of tasks into a spreadsheet and made this accessible to all the team members involved in the product marketing campaign.

They divided the sheet into three tabs for each chronological period related to the campaign:

Pre-Launch

Launch Day

Post Launch

Each column contained instructions on what to do, where to store any files involved with the task, who is responsible for it, and a section to indicate the task’s status.

Pre-Launch Product Marketing Task Checklist

1. Find a Hunter Who Will “Hunt” the Product

There is an ongoing theory that Product Hunt’s algorithm puts less value on apps promoted by their own Makers.

Product Hunt has since pointed out that this is false and that in fact, Makers can hunt their own products.

However, we found out that certain Hunters have special privileges where a product they post makes it straight to the front page instead of the less-trafficked “new and upcoming” section.

So, we erred on the side of caution and decided to find another Hunter for our relaunch.

It’s a good thing that in all our marketing campaigns, we managed to develop warm relationships with some of our prospects.

Because of this, our Asset Manager Evgen only needed to send out a couple of emails until we got a “yes” from at least one of them.

Once Evgen found our Hunter, (special thanks to our friend Chris!) he provided the necessary info our Hunter needed to post about our product.

That included our:

Product name

Product tagline

Link to the product

Handles of the makers

Blurb for the maker

All product screenshots, GIFs, and other necessary images

Youtube link to our product explainer video

After setting our launch date and time, Evgen packed all these into a Google Docs folder (you can also use Dropbox) and sent it to our Hunter.

(Tip: If you prefer to find a Hunter for your product but don’t have warm connections, you can try a cold pitch.

Most profiles of Hunters on Product Hunt are connected to their Twitter account.

If you see people with a good following hunting a similar product like yours, try and reach out.

You can also use aggregators like 500 Hunters.)

2. Brainstorm Ideas for a Special Launch Day Promotional Offer

To encourage more people to try out our product, Evgen and the product marketing team brainstormed ideas on the best special promotional offer for the launch day.

It was a delicate balance between giving a significant discount and not selling our product too short.

In the end, the team decided to offer 10% off the first month for new registrations.

(Tip: We don’t advise this for newer products with no prior fan base, though. In that case, it’s a better idea to offer something ridiculously low at first. That way, you can get the most out of your launch.)

To make sure that every Product Hunt user will see that offer, we added a banner on the top of our product pages specifically for any visitor traffic that arrived via Product Hunt.

(Tip: We used a free-to-use tool called Introbar which let us set up our Hello banner in a few minutes.)

3. Write the In-App Message for Ninjaoutreach Users

A loyal customer base willing to leave glowing comments is a great asset for any product marketing campaign.

There’s just no better social proof than those coming from long-time, paying (and happy) customers.

So, Daphnie finalized the template for an in-app message to go out to any NinjaOutreach users logging online on our launch day.

She also edited other versions of the template so that Evgen can modify our Product Hunt announcements to match the milestones of the day.

For example, if and when we get the #1 place on Product Hunt’s homepage (which we did!) our message would look like this:

4. Draft the Email Template for Ninjaoutreach Subscribers

An email list is a powerful resource that you can leverage if you want to promote a product to a warm audience.

These are people who already trusted you enough to subscribe to your emails, after all.

In our case, we had over 10k subscribers. And for our weekly newsletter, Daphnie edited this template for Dave.

Related to this, next to-dos on our list were to:

5. Prepare the Email Template for NinjaOutreach 2.0 Beta Testers

Here’s the product marketing template that Daphnie edited for Evgen.

6. Set up the Tweet Template for Reaching out to Product Hunt Influencers

And here’s the template that Evgen prepared on Twitter.

7. Update the Knowledge Base with Screenshots of the 2.0 Version

Since our 2.0 version comes with a new look, we made sure to go back to our old tutorials and update our Knowledge Base with screenshots that reflect our tool’s improved interface and design.

8. Prepare 2.0 Branded Medias Tailored Specifically for the Launch

A rebranding won’t be complete without promotional media, so our design team got these ready as well.

These media included:

Branded social media images for:

Each team member profile

All company page profiles on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram

Milestone posts:

Launch

100 upvotes

300 upvotes

500 upvotes

Thank you post to end the day

Demo video of the new interface of the app

9. Create a List of Related Slack and Facebook Groups and Join Them

Evgen also prospected some relevant Facebook and Slack Groups where he could join and eventually post announcements of our launch.

Of course, he made sure that the material fits the groups’ requirements and that the members already showed interest in getting such announcements.

10. Assemble the List of Product Hunt and Twitter Influencers to Reach out to on Launch Day

Social media, as we said, is crucial.

To make sure we have as many people know about our launch as possible, the team assembled a prospect list of the audiences we wanted to reach out to.

These people came mainly from 3 groups:

Current NinjaOutreach users who we approached via the live chat message

NinjaOutreach mailing list

Twitter users who liked NinjaOutreach on Product Hunt previously or liked one of our main competitors.

(Tip: We used the Heroku app to scrape the Twitter profiles of Product Hunt upvoters.)

Launch Day Product Marketing Task Checklist

As soon as our Hunter put up the recommendation for NinjaOutreach 2.0, the team was all set.

With an organized plan in place, it was easy to get the ball rolling. 1. Post to Product Hunt Between 12 am and 2 am PST Our goal was to get our listing up so people can see it as the day starts, so we agreed to have our Hunter post it early.

At roughly between 12 am and 2 am PST, our NinjaOutreach 2.0 Product Hunt listing was up.

2. Drop the Maker’s Introduction Comment

A product launch isn’t complete without the app Maker’s message.

Consequently, Mark posted the template he’d prepared, which discussed NinjaOutreach 2.0’s new look and interface.

He also shared the details of our special promotional offer exclusive for Product Hunt.

3. Post Updates in the Company Chat to Keep Everyone in the Loop

A concerted team effort needs constant updates to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Hence, here’s Evgen posting an announcement to the All Employees team chat to keep everyone in the loop.

4. Send Announcements to All Newsletter Subscribers, Beta Testers, Website, and In-App Visitors

Since we already had our templates, we just added our link to the Product Hunt listing and sent our announcements to all available channels:

Newsletter subscribers

Beta testers

In-app visitors

Website visitors

5. Announce the Launch on All Company Social Media Pages

Our branded images and Product Hunt announcement captions were all ready as well, so we just set those to go live on all our company social media pages on launch day.

Here is how our Twitter social media blurb looked like:

We used the same template for our Facebook and Instagram announcement.

At this point, Evgen also asked other team members to update their social profiles and help spread the news on their networks.

(Tip: We used Zapier for our targeted outreach, but for all other social media post scheduling, we used Viraltag.)

6. Share the News to All Relevant Facebook and Slack Groups

After having spent some time building rapport with his Facebook and Slack communities, here’s Evgen in one of his groups announcing our Product Hunt launch.

7. Message Any Warm Contacts

We also shared the announcement via Email, Skype, and other mediums to contacts we’ve had recent or ongoing conversations with.

In my case, I just used our outreach tool to email all my warm contacts for me. (I used NinjaOutreach to promote NinjaOutreach—how meta is that?)

Since I continuously maintain a personal list of contacts that I have a good rapport with, I just opened my account and imported this list to NinjaOutreach.

Once done importing, I saved these contacts into a new prospect list for this particular campaign.

Next, I went to: Outreach > Templates > Create Template

Because I’ve been in steady conversations with the people on this list (I move any lapsed conversations to another list), I pretty much know the right approach to use in my outreach.

I wrote my message naturally, then hit Save to store my template.

(Afterwards, when our listing went live, I just inserted the corresponding link.)

With my template done, I went back to the Outreach tab then clicked Autosending > Schedule a Campaign.

Next, I selected the correct list for our product marketing campaign, the email address I preferred to use, and the name of the custom template that I had just saved.

There are ways to pre-schedule a campaign on NinjaOutreach using the Send Later option, but because my template required the link to our listing, I had to wait for us to go live on Product Hunt first.

Once our Product Hunt thread went live and I was able to insert the link into my template, I then chose the Send Now option.

With all input fields covered, I clicked Launch Campaign and just let NinjaOutreach do its job.

8. Post an Announcement to Celebrate Hitting the 100 Upvotes Milestone

An email outreach tool may be less appealing compared to some dating or cat GIF curation apps out there.

Still, that didn’t stop us from creating our own hype.

Here’s our celebratory Tweet for when we reached our first hundred upvotes, for example.

We also used the same template for our Facebook post.

9. Publish a Post to Celebrate Hitting the 300 Upvotes Milestone

Things got even better when we reached 300 more upvotes, so we loaded up our celebratory Tweet for that as well.

Again, we used the same template for our Facebook post.

10. Spread the Word to Celebrate Hitting the Top of the Product Hunt Homepage

Finally, the best moment came when we hit #1 on the Product Hunt homepage.

Evgen and the rest of the product marketing team were ecstatic, and we gladly used our celebratory templates for this special achievement.

Here’s our Facebook post to commemorate the milestone.

TopHuntsDaily, a Product Hunt Twitter bot, already made the announcement for us on Twitter, so we just Retweeted that.

11. Tweet the Influencers in the Prospect List

Product Hunt discourages anyone from directly asking for upvotes, so we simply shared the word with our branded images and a link to our product listing.

We also made sure to stay within Twitter’s direct message and Tweet limits.

To accomplish these faster, we used an app called Zapier to do a Google Sheet + Zapier + Twitter integration.

Basically, Zapier connected the different apps we used and automated the process of turning our templates in Google Sheets into Twitter posts.

Zapier can do this for other apps and this integration + automation process is called making a “zap.”

To demonstrate, here is a look at my Zapier account.

I already clicked Google Sheets and Twitter to view any available zap templates for those apps.

As you’ll see, you can also use zaps to save any Twitter mentions and followers into a Google sheet too. But for this particular task, the zap we needed was the one that made it possible to post Tweets from new rows on Google Sheets.

After choosing a zap, Zapier will show a short description page about it so users can double check that it’s going to do exactly as intended.

The next steps of the in-app walkthrough are easy enough to understand and in a few minutes, you’ll have a working zap.

So, back to the campaign.

We integrated several Twitter accounts of some of our team members who have a good following and set these to Tweet around 10 messages each.

We then scheduled these 10 Tweets to go out every 20 to 30 minutes to:

People who upvoted NinjaOutreach in our previous 2014 launch

Those who upvoted competitors and similar apps.

12. Monitor Mentions and Reply to Comments Throughout the Launch Day

All things considered, we still needed to keep the engagement going to maintain our top homepage position.

Using our other social media accounts, we also continued to share our Product Hunt link to our personal and business contacts, asking them to support us and join the conversation.

Also, some team members stayed on for the whole day of the launch to reply to any mentions and comments on Product Hunt and other channels.

Post Launch Product Marketing Task Checklist

1. Respond to All Supporters

After the launch, we rechecked our social media channels to say thank you to all the people who upvoted and shared the news. Evgen personally reacted to all the Tweets to show his appreciation.

2. Turn off All Automated Announcements

With our product marketing event done, we disabled all the automated messages we sent to our users and website visitors through Intercom.

3. Publish Documentation About the Relaunch

And our last task? It’s to publish a case study about this launch, and that’s why you’re reading this now. 😉

Final Notes

From #1 on the Product Hunt homepage, we ended the day at #2, with a total of 470+ upvotes, 31 reviews, and 21 comments.

Despite not being able to hold the #1 spot through to the end, NinjaOutreach still gained some leads from this exercise.

For one, in three weeks after our Product Hunt launch, we’ve received over 1.1k visits and 10 new signups from this source alone.

Two months later, our total goal completions referred by Product Hunt reached almost $900.

We even got a couple of new business collaboration proposals.

However, that’s not to say it couldn’t have gone better.

Yes, a social influencer outreach app could not possibly demand the sort of viral engagement that other cooler, more consumer-oriented apps could.

Still, we should have gotten more signups.

But given that we were able to successfully promote our rebranding with a small team, using minimal time, and with a low-cost product marketing campaign (this only cost us more or less $300 to execute), this, to us, was a pretty good first step for NinjaOutreach 2.0.

And as we push through the year with new key leaders to our team, the future continues to be ripe for more opportunities to take NinjaOutreach even further.
