Up until November 2007 when I saw “YouTube’s Greatest Hits” on the Oprah Winfrey Show I thought video sharing was a trend. Little did I know that more than 200 million videos are watched on YouTube each day. And with that sort of popularity I can totally understand why Oprah, who is an incredible business woman, has her own channel on YouTube.
Are you like me… a businessperson who is missing out on this phenomenon? I didn’t think having my own online videos mattered one way or the other. But I have done many a Google search and I always opt for the link that has a video because it helps me learn about the person, their expertise, product, company or service more so than when I read an article. So now I’m thinking that I need to jump on the video sharing bandwagon ASAP!
Being a bit of a techno phoebe I use to think that making videos for the internet was complicated and should be left to the techies. But after talking to Penny Haynes of Commercial Creation Center my mind is completely changed and here’s why.
Haynes has thoroughly tested her downloadable software with newbies who have never recorded audio or video in their life. She says, “Creating multimedia should be simple. That’s why I designed this “one of a kind” Commercial Creation Center specifically for internet novices.”
Haynes is offering a 3 day FREE trial from Commercial Creation Center for a limited time and after trying it out you have the option to subscribe for less than 20 bucks a month. And since there are no contracts you can stop anytime you want.
Penny Haynes is no stranger to technology, she has been in the online audio and video business since April 2004. She explains, “I was Lifetime Television’s Podcasting Consultant in 2006 and I’ve been designing and programming software since 1994.” She started Online Community Magazines in 2006, and the Commercial Creation Center, was publicly released October 13, 2008.
Here are some of the things you can do with Commercial Creation Center:
- Create unlimited multimedia products such as audio books
- Webinars
- You can record PowerPoint presentations and narrate them
- Commercials
- Video tutorials
- Podcasts
- Viral marketing videos
- And more - without buying lots of software or taking any classes
- Tools include webcam and computer screen recording, video conversion and mixing, slide show videos, audio recording, mixing and CD copying, and a Photo Editor
My suggestion is that you take a little tour of her website, check out the video and see what other people are saying. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or a pro I bet you’ll want to try it out for yourself. Go to www.CommercialCreationCenter.com for a free 3 day trial. Become an affiliate as well.
See you on YouTube!

Penny is fabulous. I’ve known her for several years and she trained me on how to podcast even before it became a popular mode of connecting with potential clients. She has always been on the cutting edge of technology and the Commercial Creation Center is just another example of her successful integration of technology and marketing. Great job, Penny.

Penny Haynes has just made marketing on the internet available and affordable to everyone. I have used the Commercial Creation Center and can vouch that it does everything it claims, plus the support from Penny is exceptional. If you have ever wanted to make audios or videos for the web, then get this piece of softare now. You won’t regret it.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Penny in a variety of circumstances and she’s always been pleasant and knowledgeable, and willing to help others. It’s nice to see your feature on her innovative solutions for multimedia opportunities.

Penny Haynes introduced me to the world of audio recording when she created an MP3 audio for our website. She has convinced this old-school contemporary woman that the wave of the future is digital… and she’s absolutely right.
Audio and video is the vessel that transforms written content into a personalized connection between authors and their audience. Whatever the message is that you wish to convey, audio and video brings it to life.
I personally endorse Penny Haynes work enthusiastically; she makes the process simple for the technically challenged.
Congratulation on your new launch Penny!

When I heard that Penny was offering the Commercial Creation Center outside of the Online Community Magazine environment, I was elated!
What an outstanding tool for the everyday person that wants to get into creating their own multimedia products to sell, to share, to whatever.
Penny has been my podcasting mentor for about 2 years now and as a podcast consultant myself, I know how much this type of easy-to-use tool is needed. I’ve used it and it really IS super-easy to work with. Great job, Penny!

This new product is one of the best tools I have seen since I don’t know when. It’s exactly what I have been hoping someone would create for me ~ but little did I know it would be Penny Haynes, nor that it would be soooo affordable.
I told her that this was the best deal of the century, and I mean it. I signed up immediately and can’t wait to get going with this. I have a very long list of tasks that I need this tool to do for me
This product practically sells itself, but in case you need one more reason? I’ve known Penny for around 5-6 years now. She has been more than generous with her time, and is truly a genius at making multimedia accessible for everyone ~ even major technophobes like me! She has my solid endorsement.
Congratulations on this wonderful new product, Penny!

Today if what we are looking for doesn’t turn up on the front page of Google what do we do? We change the words we search for.
But Google is not the only search engine on the web - increasingly we are turning to sites such as YouTube as a content search engine whether that be for education or entertainment.
But as a small business and especially one where technical skills are not the forte, how can you create your own multimedia content professionally and cost effectively?
This new product definitely makes multimedia content creation much more accessible.
Of course that does not mean that we should not be creative with our ideas, deliver valuable and relevant content and implement an effective marketing programme.
What it does mean is that the technical barrier is eliminated for many people so that there is a level playing field for small businesses who can’t afford the expertise of a media agency.
It’s terrific that Penny Haynes, well know as a professional podcaster and educator has invested in making this service available especially at a time when marketing budgets are under pressure, yet at the same time it’s critical for us to continue to market in an increasingly challenging economy.
The only downside I can foresee is that there is just a 3 day trial period - I am guessing that 7-14 days and you’d find people hooked!

Penny certainly knows her stuff and the way the CCC has been put together is clearly a culmination of hundreds of hours of hands on frustration at using existing tools to produce multimedia web content.
We collaborated with Penny in producing the International Podcasting Expo and can vouch for not only her knowledge of new media, but also her ability to train people how to use it.
Kudos- looking forward to using the CCC with our plans to bringing Small Businesses around the world online.

Penny Haynes is fabulous and her Commercial Creation Center is an awesome product. Congratulations Penny!

Congratulations Penny!
I met Penny during the Intl Podcasting Expo. You’ve made Podcasting easy to grasp. Keep up the great work.
May God continue to bless you immensely for all your hard work and dedication to the Small Business Community!

With the ease of use in the Commercial Creation Center tools, and having Penny herself as a resource, there is no comparison to that value.
When it was time to take the leap in my business and learn to use audio and video to maximize my voice, and help more of my clients do the same, I knew I would settle for nothing less than learning it from the best, Penny!
In my book, Penny is more than just an industry leader, she is an authentic expert.
Thank you Penny for bringing us the opportunities you do, to grow our minds.

I’ve never met anyone as good at what she does as Penny! This lady knows her product and knows how to put things together for her clients. I never hesitate to refer her to my clients and have endorsed her services and products without reservation.
If you haven’t experienced the Commercial Creation Service or checked into her Online Community Magazines, you are missing two of the finest marketing tools available today.
Penny Haynes is absollutely the best in the business, you have only to work with her for an hour to understand how truly amazing she really is.

Penny introduced me to the world of podcasting back in 2004 (Wow, was it that long ago?) and she hasn’t stopped being on the bleeding edge of multi-media since then. She’s always dreamed of making multi-media something even technologically challenged folks could use. Unlike some people that dream, Penny has worked hard to make that dream come true with the Commercial Creation Center! Good job, Penny!

I am an artist & know nothing about the computer much less making an audio & video. Penny made it so easy for me. I’m amazed. If I could do this anyone can. Bless you Penny. Keep up the good work. Joan

Like many other here, I’m also a student of the Penny Hayes podcasting system (gosh 4 years???) - and podcasting is still only in the early stages. If she is doing that with podcasting 4 years ago, it’s a no brainer about video. Penny…this looks great!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:02 am
I have known Penny for about 3 years now I believe, she is the most generous person and her ideas are always explosive! Penny goes to all lengths no matter what to help entrepreneurs gain attention for their business. When she starts a project she always finishes it! Penny created my first video for my site Heal Yourself Talk Radio back two years ago when I was new to videos and I was very impressed and excited, she knew what to focus on to bring me more attention in the video. Penny has always been 2 steps ahead of others…she is a genius! I have used her Commercial Creation Center before during BETA testing and it is an awesome piece of software.
Congrats to Penny for everything she has accomplished! She sees a vision and goes after it!
October 16th, 2008 at 3:56 pm
Penny, What a brilliant idea! Congratulations on your success and thank you for sharing this wonderful and innovative marketing tool.

Hello my name is Laura Gonzalez, business owner of Virtual Business Solutions. I am a certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor, software trainer and business consultant with over 18 years experience providing software training.
I have produced audio and video tutorials for my clients that educate and provide a deeper understanding of their software solutions.
The Commercial Creation Center makes creating professional sounding audio with background music very easy. The audio recorder makes it simple to record individual audio, and the Audio Mixer seamlessly combines multiple pieces of audio and even adds background music. The Commercial Creation Center even comes with its own selection of professional background music. If you’ve never tried creating audio or video before, this is the perfect program with which to start.

I totally agree, audio and video is the” vessel that transforms written content into a personalized connection between authors and their audience”. Audio and video brings your message to life. Has anyone tried video and web conferencing? I heard of a website called http://www.24conference.com - they offer web conferencing and video conferencing for small businesses and non-profits. You can use this form of technology for training your employees, hold meetings, the options are endless. Thanks for the article, you gave me a few new ideas.
