Fantasy? Not anymore. TechnorazziLIVE has a successful track record, ecstatic clients, and a growing reputation.
“The online video marketplace is still very young, and we are on the verge of a new era of marketing with the rise of real- time video and social media. For business, it's grown beyond just being about the numbers of times the video is viewed, it’s now about engagement and reach. Video is such a compelling way to tell a story, sell a product, and connect with customers. It's no longer a piece of a business’ online marketing plan—it’s at the core of an overall strategy.”
—Larry Kless, President and Founder of Online Video Publishing
