We're starting a wild herb class here at Future Visions
Our resident Naturopath is going to start a class on finding and identifying wild herbs and other plants. She will then show all the different things you can do with them--not just as food, but as salves, tinctures, etc. We're thinking of video taping these talks. Do you think there would be interest in watching them?

1. Well, sure
You should video them. Someone probably has a videocamera. Then you could just make copies and sell them at slightly over cost. Who knows, you all might be able to sell them on Ebay.

3. Actually, that's the idea
We invested in a video camera to do this, and we have the capacity to manufacture the video on demand. We already did this for a talk given about influenza, only it was just an audio CD. I'm really excited about the class and what we learn.

5. You could sell them as video podcasts.
The beauty of downloadable technology is that it eliminates shipping expenses and physical inventory. Put teaser freebies on DIY tutoring websites as a marketing lure.
