Audio Acrobat - The Easiest Way to Create Audio & Video! [Online ]

From the page: “YES!! I want to take advantage of this incredible offer to try out AudioAcrobat for 30 days, Risk-Free!
And, if I like what I have experienced, I can continue with AudioAcrobat each month for the Price Plan I have selected below. AudioAcrobat is only $19.95 a month and comes with amazing features and Free Training! I can even download MP3 files to my computer once I am off the Free Trial.”

I received phone calls, emails and IMs (Instant Messages) telling me you just LOVE my audio welcome and ezine audio-instructions! So, how did non-techie-Ponn Sabra accomplish all this!?

Simple: I followed the little flowchart above: Record => Publish => Download => Upload => Stream!

Audio Acrobat How-To

Step One: Create Audio

Direct Dial into our AudioCenter with your phone. [The easiest method, and cheapest].

Use the AudioAcrobat ® Recorder and your PC microphone to record your audio online. [I'm told this is "supposedly better quality...but, I just can *not* sit at my PC, talk, and record...its so un-natural for me! I walk, move my arms and I'm so physical when I talk!]

Step Two: Publish Your Audio.

Upload a MP3 or WAV file. [Sweet deal! I just give my Virtual Assistant my login information, she goes in, edits it, and even posts my html code directly into my website, and posts!]

- Have a recorded audio created by a professional voice artist. [Wait til you hear my Podcast!! And, he runs a great special 60-second intro and segue for $60 just for referrals from yours truly!]

Step Three: Test the Audio. Rather than fiddle & faddle with something that does not interest me–Jen just sends me the link, which is hosted on Audio Acrobat itself, and I can hear the “finished” highly-professional, unique-Internet Branded Podcast! Personalized high-energy, musical intro & segue (gearing up for tons of extra “air time” for You–My Incredible Supportive Sponsor), and much more!

Is it *really* this easy-Ponn!?

As their tagline states it IS “the easiest way to create audio [I haven't tried video yet]” online!

There’s a “Create Audio” page, with simple instructions via phone or computer. The prompt numeric instructions, should look/sound familar to you, if you ever “sat in” on a teleconference before. And, once you hang-up the phone (granted you followed the instructions verbatim), seconds later the audio clip is posted in the “Audio” Tab in your Account.

Have I tried others?

No, I didn’t need to, and here’s why:

1. BYOAudio – Basically, without getting ‘technical’ (well, mainly because I don’t understand it), they offer the exact same features as AudioAcrobat, affiliate program, and back in 2004 when I ran my best-seller campaign, the owner owned both BYOAudio & outsourced to AudioAcrobat. And, what I appreciated most by the owner, was he personally referred Pat of Audio Acrobat to me, because she was the Owner/Founder of Women’s Radio, and since we had the same “target market”–he thought we’d be a “great match”. Not if he’s not an Empowered Entrepreneur–I don’t know who else is. 3 years later, his name escapes me–I apologize, but his professionalism and his services, I’ve never forgotten!

2. AudioGenerator – by Armand Morin, one prominent Internet Marketer. All my strictly “Internet Marketer” colleagues/non-bloggers use his program, which to the best of my knowledge offers the same things for approximately the same price. But….

3. AudioAcrobat – All my blogging-Internet Marketing colleagues…but, most importantly, all my Podcasting colleagues and virtual assistance uses this *very* easy software. So, yes–I could’ve “researched” the other 2 above programs in a bit more detail for you and me–but, that would just be a *waste* of time, money and energy! I asked my V.A. for her affiliate link, and I signed up immediately! You should to!

Audio Acrobat Productions tips, thoughts & Recommendations:

1. I’m not “Perfect Ponn”, nor do I try to be–nor should you! Don’t go for the backyard-CB sounding amateurish-sounding audios or podcasts, yet, don’t strive for the ultra-I’m-the-best-high-tech-mega-dosey-audio-chick-deal either. Go for the middle road, and if you have the opportunity due to time and monetary resources, invest in the “more” professional sound, then the cheaper, non-professional route.

2. By maintaining the middle-route, you can test and track your data, and build your already “professional” audios to a higher-grade as your traffic and income allows.

3. Start too low…both in low-budget and/or low-class; you may offend or turn-off your present client-base, traffic, etc. and lose credibility in the process.

4. Take advantage of Free Interactive Training Classes, regularly scheduled!

5. Listen to this option directly in your Account first! I listened (and perused the text) 4 min. 40 sec. Tips for Recording a Conference Call.

Tip: Sign up for your free account at The Basement Ventures’ Free Conferencing Center – Formerly FreeConferencing right now if you’re going to do teleseminars or podcasts!

Thankfully, my first podcast recording was with my patient, understanding, and Empowered Mentor Yaro Starak. Because, I was trying to get Yaro and I into a “conference room” at AudioAcrobat, and instead, we were both using my “conference line” and both recording ourselves individually–urgh

Anyways, since it was only one-on-one guest recording, and not a “live conference call podcast with multiple attendees”, he kindly called me at home, I used my administration options to get us “recording”, we did a 5-second-test-run…then went “live” for a 59 minute debut podcast!

I listened to these tips, updated my account at The Basement Venture (since FreeConferencing.com is no longer available), and I did a test-run with my friend!

It’s just like having a buddy on the line, and you hop on the 2nd line to get a 3rd caller in a 3-way-call.

First, you and your guest call the Conference Line. Second–you (the administrator) “patches” in the AudioAcrobat Recording Line. Then, when you are ready everyone “hangs up”.

I plan to update this review as I grow with AudioAcrobat, so please stay posted!

Internet Branding Comments:

• Adding audio to your website and/or blog gives your readers/listeners another mode of transmission in which to receive your “same” message.
• You “personalize” your Internet Brand allowing your and your company another method to market your unique products and/or services.
• You can utilize this technology for better time-management (adding short audio-posts…I’m finally implemented this long-desired feature).
• You can start your own podcast as another traffic-building and traffic-generating method.
• And, much more….

Rather then hear it from me–a newbie of 1-week; please share your experiences with audio, podcasts, and/or AudioAcrobat-specifically below!
