Heard most of it until about 3:20. Check up on the 30 Day Challenge site, I know Ed Dale talks a lot about recording devices, in fact I have some of the 30DC Plus recordings where he talks about creating good audio/video recordings.

As far as carrying products vs. dropshipping. For someone getting started would you recommend sticking to the Tim Ferriss model of a few products(30-50 as you state on Fastlane) and a $50-200 price range?

And with that, what would you consider to be the lowest profit per order to make a product worthwhile… $10? $20? more?

And oh yea, first int’l flight in 17yrs???

Lol, I’d go crazy if I went that long without leaving this place. I first went overseas when I was 18 and have gone 2 more times since and will be going again this June :)

Good first try. Had to put the volume on 10, though.

Unfortunately almost completely inaudible to me too (using a Mackbook Pro and Firefox).

Nice work. I could hear it just fine. All the best rocking Kilimanjaro!

Terence,

I used Windows Live Movie Maker to slice the video clips together. This camera has no mic attachment.

Kenric:

The HD is pretty good. It’s a good vlog after all. I don’t know how many time I see my self saying “You know”, “Again” and “But” in front of my webcam.

Just curious, how did you combine multiple sections into one clip? Does YouTube automatically did that or your v-cam did that?

Also there may be an accessory with wired or wireless mic. So you don’t have to speak out loud.

Regarding to the drop shipping. That’s where Zappos got started. You will eventually end up stocking in order to do better customer services. The good things is that they are not carrying the same stuff you do.

Looking forward to seeing your new vlog.

Nice first vlog post :-)

I’d echo the comments about the sun and the shadow, perhaps adding that you might have the sun at a right angle (I guess).

Maybe add some music to the soundtrack when you aren’t talking at turn it down when you are conversing.

About dropping dropshipping – will that then involve getting a more fixed operation and employing other people? What elements of E-Myth style planning will you do?

Anyways, all the best – your lifestyle and the ‘living’ part is an inspiration to me.

Thanks for the comment. I’ll have to speak up in future videos. Yeah, I saw that I need to keep the camera shadow out of my face. I obviously didn’t notice that when I moved my head. This stuff is good to figure out at home! Like I said, it would suck if all my Africa videos were unintelligible.
