[video: The Harry Thomas Show 020908 seg 1 - http://harrythomas.info] [Text:The progressive magazine - www.progressive.org] Today, more than 23,000 representatives of private industry are working quietly with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. The members of this rapidly growing group, called InfraGard, receive secret warnings of terrorist threats before the public does—and, at least on one occasion, before elected officials. In return, they provide information to the government, which alarms the ACLU. But there may be more to it than that. One business executive, who showed me his InfraGard card, told me they have permission to "shoot to kill" in the event of martial law. InfraGard is "a child of the FBI," says Michael Hershman, the chairman of the advisory board of the InfraGard National Members Alliance and CEO of the Fairfax Group, an international consulting firm. InfraGard started in Cleveland back in 1996, when the private sector there cooperated with the FBI to investigate cyber threats. "Then the FBI cloned it," says Phyllis Schneck, chairman of the board of directors of the InfraGard National Members Alliance, and the prime mover behind the growth of InfraGard over the last several years. InfraGard itself is still an FBI operation, with FBI agents in each state overseeing the local InfraGard chapters. (There are now eighty-six of them.) The alliance is a nonprofit organization of private sector InfraGard members. "We are the owners, operators, and experts of our critical infrastructure, from the CEO of a large company in agriculture or high finance to the guy who turns the valve at the water utility," says Schneck, who by day is the vice president of research integration at Secure Computing. "At its most basic level, InfraGard is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the private sector," the InfraGard website states. "InfraGard chapters are geographically linked with FBI Field Office territories." In November 2001, InfraGard had around 1,700 members. As of late January, InfraGard had 23,682 members, according to its website, www.infragard.net, which adds that "350 of our nation's Fortune 500 have a representative in InfraGard."

Top business advice from David Meerman Scott, bestselling author of The New Rules of Marketing & PR. Join him in this show as he talks about why you need to identify your customers. See more business news television shows featuring these experts, as they give their top expert business advice at http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com David Meerman Scott: Sure. So if I were advising small business people, a small business person I would say the first thing and the most important thing before you even try to create any kind of content at all is to step back and understand who are your buyer persona’s, I call them buyer persona’s. Who are the people that you are trying to reach and I want to know who they are in detail. So for example if you are running a small hotel I don’t want you to create information about your hotel online until you can tell me who the specific buyer personas of the people who are coming to your hotel are. Perhaps there’s the independent business person who is trying to make their own decision about what hotel they stay at. Perhaps there’s a corporate travel department that books 100 of room nights a year because their corporate headquarters is right near the hotel. Or a young couple planning on getting married might be a third buyer persona and they are looking for a hotel ballroom to have their wedding reception. Another buyer persona might be people who want to have a corporate event in the hotel ballroom. All of those or a family on a vacation is a fifth buyer persona. Once you know who your buyer persona’s you need to interview those buyer personas’ representatives of those buyers and find out who they are and what are the problems that they have that you your organisation your product and service can solve in their words. I want to know in their words not yours because we are not going to be egotistical with the content we create. We are going to create content that is in the words of our buyers. Then I want you to stop talking about what your products and services ...

I share with you my perspective and what I took away as a business person. My reaction goes beyond political beliefs, as I will share, I watched the thousands and millions of people choose Obama- and how at the core, they voted for him because of what they believe he could do for our country.

The idea of giving away product --free-- gives the willies to any self-respecting business person. But that's what working musicians do in exchange for the exposure offered by an appearance on The WoodSongs Old Time Radio Hour, the radio..and now, television..show taped every Monday evening in Lexington's Kentucky Theater before a standing-room-only audience.

Africa is leading the world in year-over-year growth in mobile phone penetration, and other parts of the developing world are close behind. In the very near future every schoolteacher and every health worker in every developing country will have such a pocket computer, capable of requesting and receiving information from the information repository of the internet. Every businessperson and every government official will be able to communicate more widely, and for less money, than ever before, using the computer in their pocket. And that computer will be the communications tool, and the schoolbook, and the vaccination record, and the family album, and more. The information revolution for developing countries is already underway.

If you are a small business person you probably think that you have got far more important things to do than to listen to me rabbiting on for 18 minutes. In 99% of cases I agree - you have much better things to do with your time. This time however, listening to me for 18 minutes could save you not only a lot of hassle but a huge amount of money. In some cases it could even save your house and life savings. The unfortunate thing is that by the time you get here, you will have found out for yourself. Do not believe that it cannot happen to you, unless you have already found out that it could. My channel on you tube : http://www.youtube.com/alanheath is one of the most prolific from Poland, although unfortunately not the most visited. I have produced a number of films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occassional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focussing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers. Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine! In 1997 I founded Polish Business News http://www.pbn.com.pl .There are a number of business related films here and I intend to do many more on CRM (customer relations management). My blog can be found via http://www.ceepackaging.com and http://www.pbn.com.pl and contains background information and more details of many of my films. This information is in English. I have also a second blog on the site http://www.navigeo.net/blog/alan-heath-blog . This site has been recently started by a friend and I think it will soon be one of the leading travel sites in Poland, if not Central Europe. It contains additional information about some of the places and events shown in these films but most of that is in Polish.
