Hunt Strong founder enjoys his time at Bushmen Safaris

Davie “Crockett’ Ferraro founded Hunt Strong – www.ihuntstrong.com – to enhance the lives of outdoors men and women to become more successful in the field. Davie helps get people get in great physical shape to be able to take that one opportunity to make an ethical shot on what could be your trophy of a lifetime. He spent some time hunting at the Bushmen Safaris facility in South Africa and was kind enough to share his experiences.

Bow hunting in South Africa with Bushmen Safaris was no doubt a trip we would remember for the rest of our lives. Weeks prior to our arrival at Bushmen, I e-mailed the staff with the types of foods I consume on a regular basis to ensure I was properly prepared for success. Lydia, an awesome cook and friend, took great care of us and not once did I consume anything that was not on my nutritional regimen for our entire stay at Bushmen Safaris.

We were greeted with smiles at Johannesburg airport by Shannon, one of South Africa’s best professional hunters, then off we were on our car ride to Bushmen Safaris. During our ride we shared several stories of our successes and failures of hunting throughout our lives. I will say it was a little weird riding on the other side of the road and the other side of the car. What was even more different was driving on the other side of the road. Yes, Shannon let me drive the last 5 miles into camp. I can now check that off the list.  Once we arrived at Bushmen, I was kindly greeted by Nick, a professional hunter and Shannon’s father, Lydia, Nick’s wife and Shannon’s mother, and the rest of the staff at Bushmen Safaris.

I sighted in my bow to make sure it did not get knocked during travel and studied some shot placement videos to make sure my shots would be ethical. The vitals of the animals in Africa are different than our big game in the United States. Their hearts for the most part are right in the shoulders at the far front of the animals.  We also discussed our hit list.  Hit list, meaning the plains game I wanted to harvest. On the top of our list was a Zebra, Gemsbok, Impala, Blesbok, Warthog, and if a huge Kudu would present itself, I would harvest it. You may be thinking “Why a Zebra?” Here’s why. Not only are they gorgeous, but a Zebra can live up to 30 years and they are very smart and tough to get a shot on. I love challenges and was up for it. I was only going to harvest mature animals, no different than if we were hunting in the United States. I am a hunter, not a killer. After all, it would just help out Bushmen’s management program. We were extremely tired from all the traveling, but I still could not sleep with such excitement rumbling through my body.

After a week at the beautiful Bushmen Safaris facilities, we successfully ended our hunt at Bushmen Safaris with a monster wide Kudu bull, an impressive Waterbuck, two Impalas, and memories engrained in our heads for the rest of our lives.  We have some incredible pictures and videos to share along with some mounts that will remind us of our hunts with Bushmen. Hunting South Africa was by far an unbelievable experience. Getting within, at times,  5 to 25 yards to watch these plains game animals is just breathtaking. And the sunsets and sunrises, wow, it’s like you can just reach up and shake God’s hand. We will be back, especially since we did not get our shot at a Zebra or Gemsbok. A huge thank you to SCI and Bushmen Safaris for making this trip, a trip of a lifetime. I truly feel blessed to have experienced hunting the bush at such a young age and can’t wait to get back.

Seybold Scientific’s Marketing Recession Guide 

It’s official. We are in a recession. Not that you needed confirmation from the government to tell you that especially as a business owner. But now that a recession has been officially declared – What is your company suppose to do to take advantage of the current business climate? Two words: Inbound marketing.

Inbound marketing is marketing focused on getting found by customers.

Companies have been using traditional or outbound marketing since the dawn of advertising to find customers. They have used techniques such as cold calling, print advertising, television ads, junk mail, spam and trade shows to get their message in front of the right person.

However, technology has helped make these techniques less effective, less successful, and ultimately more expensive. Caller ID blocks cold calls and telemarketers, digital video recorders make television advertising less effective, spam filters block mass emails, and tools like RSS are making print and display advertising less successful.

Of course, it is still possible to get a message out through these channels, but it takes more time and effort. Did I mention it also costs more money? And in today’s landscape spending more is not an option.

Today’s competitive environment demands that enterprises leverage each customer interaction for maximum benefit.

Instead of interrupting people with television ads, people and companies create videos that potential customers want to see. Does YouTube sound familiar? Instead of buying display ads in print publications, people create their own blog that people subscribe to and read on a daily basis. Instead of cold calling, companies create useful content and tools so that people call them looking for more information.

Inbound marketing is where you help yourself get found by people already learning about and shopping in your industry.  Your website needs to attract visitors naturally through the search engines, the blogosphere, and the social media sites.  In order to do this, you need to set up your website so it is smoking hot. It needs to be the place people bookmark. The site people subscribe to; the domain that gets top of mind awareness.

The game has changed. Are you ready to play ball?

Your potential customers are no longer driving to the mall to spend their hard-earned money. They are gathering online to find what they need. You are trying to sell a pay phone to a cell phone nation. They have all migrated to a new solution. Are you ready to sell to the new consumer?

With the inbound marketing tools that have become available over the past few years, the scale of any business can be unlimited. If you have a great product and the skills to communicate with your customers, you can compete with the biggest advertising budgets.

Pretty exciting, and for small businesses it is empowering.

To learn more about inbound marketing and how it can help your business in 2009, give Seybold Scientific a call at 208.639.0781.

Troy McClain says “You’re Hired” to Seybold Scientific

Google™ certified Seybold Scientific will provide online marketing services to help Boise’s “Apprentice” gain new market share

Troy McClain, the former apprentice to Donald Trump on NBC’s hugely successful television show “The Apprentice” announced his selection of Boise, Idaho-based Seybold Scientific to spearhead the development of his company’s Web 2.0 brand. Troy McClain, president of The McClain Company, seeks to expand his professional speaking series to include a whole new audience through the use of online social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn and create a truly unique engagement between the real and virtual world.

“I brought George Seybold on board because he is an industry leader and well-respected voice in the 2.0 world,” said Troy McClain. “Seybold Scientific’s unique process and proven results will give our company the expertise we need to develop and acquire new clients worldwide.”

In part, Seybold Scientific will be setting a social media and search engine optimization strategy that will update the Troy McClain website (http://www.troymcclain.com) and enable his “Keynote Speaker 2.0” brand to enter new and dynamic platforms.
“We’re very excited about beginning this relationship with Troy and The McClain Company,” said George Seybold, president of Seybold Scientific.  “Troy’s ability to truly connect with people in a personal way allows him to engage and inspire audiences around entrepreneurship and achieve remarkable business results. I look forward to enhancing his Web 2.0 profile and delivering new opportunities while demonstrating our commitment to world-class customer service.”

Web 2.0 is the term given to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that is focused on the ability for people to collaborate and share information online. Web 2.0 basically refers to the transition from static HTML Web pages to a more dynamic Web that is more organized and is based on serving Web applications to users.

“Web 2.0 is not a thing. It is a state of mind,” said George Seybold. “People are joining and building online communities. They are engaging, sharing and building relationships which ultimately can help grow business. Sharing your knowledge and passion with others becomes infectious and people want to be a part of that.”

Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities such as blogs, wikis, and social networking sites like Facebook. Although the term suggests a new version of the Web, it just refers to changes in the way people are using the Internet.

“Technology is only great if you know how to use it, and Web 2.0 enables new ways for people to work and collaborate,” Troy McClain said. “However, lack of knowledge and understanding is preventing many companies from fully embracing these technologies or worse, leaving them open to fall behind their competitors. By utilizing Seybold Scientific’s talent, I feel my business experience will play a significant role in helping to expand my organization’s footprint as we broaden the markets in which we participate.”
