Bud,
Great movie short! I like the whole thing: it reminded me of the similar movies on the Simple Truths site, very professional and well paced. I like the final quote "Enjoy the ride" - and I could see that your book was showcased at the end but it was a little hard to read, and as I was thinking I should write down what I could see - arggh - the screen went to black. (So I could watch it again?) Can you have the last frame (with the book) just parked on the screen?
So- Yes, I will watch it again, and I want to catch the 5 elements of success.
Best Regards,
Bill

Thank you for letting me know about the movie.
The five values are well defined and communicated. I would have liked to have seen the book mentioned at the start of the video.

This video makes me to read You, visit You and enjoy You every day. Waiting for e commerce.
The Common Sense point here is simple:
Bud Bilanich, You are great!

Bud, this is really terrific. The only thing I would do is interject your own "voice" which conveys a lot of enthusiasm in itself.

Bill, Warren, Ina, Robin:
Thanks for your comments and support.
I went with a soft sell approach here on purpose. While I would like people to purchase the book -- especially on April 22, my launch date -- my goal in doing the video was to provide useful information to as many people as possible on what I think it takes to become a career and life success.
I'm hoping this video will make the rounds of the internet, and people will benefit from it's common sense approach to career and life success.
Thanks again for your comments and support.

Bud,
the essence of the 5 key points is there and really hits the mark. I would add more on the personal balance aspect which is there but strikes home as a key factor in sustaining success and sustaining the journey as you so vividly put it out there. And as others have commented,I would defnitely add your voiceover commentary with the music as a back drop.
This looks great and let me know when it is on the shelves.
Regards,
Tony

Bud,
I thought the video was terrific. I was at least looking for your face. Do keep the book on longer and make it a little easier for us old folks to read. Good luck on your launch! I hope all is well with you.

Carol:
Why spoil a good video with a face like mine?
You can help with the launch by buying a copy of "Straigh Talk for Success" on Amazon.com on the launch date April 22. I am trying to drive the book to the top of the Amazon.com best seller list for that day.
My best to you and Bobby. Cathy and I are looking forward to Matt's wedding.

Great stuff! I think that it is important to focus on doable things -- and this did.

As a Contentented Living Coach, a lot of the difficulties people bring to me are solved when they apply a little common sense.
Really enjoyed your straight-forward approach.
Good luck with your book.
