Michael Koenigs’s Summary

"Some of Mike's clients include.. Deepak Chopra, Debbie Ford and the Tony Robbins Companies"

Geek, surfer, marketer, video producer and didgeridoo player, Mike Koenigs is best known as the guy who created the Web 2.0 syndication service, Traffic Geyser that has distributed over 3 million videos in less than two years and generates top ranking, web traffic and leads in minutes by sending video content to over 70 video sites, social bookmarking, social media, blog and podcasting directories.

Mike grew up in Eagle Lake, Minnesota (pop. 763) where he taught himself how to program when he was 14. He wrote video games for the first Mac game company, PCAI. In 1991, he co-founded Digital Cafe, one of the first interactive multimedia agencies that produced the world's first branded CD-ROM game, "Chex Quest" shipping in more than six-million boxes of General Mills cereal and produced many of the world's first movie web sites, promotional screen savers and games for Sony, Columbia-Tristar and 20th Century Fox. He sold the company during the dotcom boom to publicly-held IPG in 1999.

He's credited for making "Infomercial Toolkit" and inventing the "Internet Infomercial" for marketing and selling virtually any product or service on the web.

Michael has served as a producer, marketer and consultant for Sony Entertainment, 20th Century Fox, 3M, General Mills, Dominos Pizza, Ralston, Mazda Motors and New York Times bestselling authors including Deepak Chopra, Debbie Ford and Tony Robbins. He's created over 300 web sites and more than 30 products.

His studios are located in San Diego, CA.

    Traffic Geyser Video Marketing System

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Internet industry)

    October 2006Present (2 years)

    I'm the inventor of the service and co-founder of the business.

    The 4th most popular web site on the web after Yahoo, Google and MSN is YouTube.

    Video traffic accounts for more than 50% of the overall traffic on the web today.

    If you want to be noticed and seen online, it just makes sense that you want a video to promote you, your cause, business, message, marketing or sales message on a video site…

    But creating videos and submitting them to all the services is very time-consuming.

    Traffic Geyser was created to solve this problem and make your message visible on the most popular sites on the net – free video services.

    What is Traffic Geyser?

    Traffic Geyser is a Web 2.0 broadcasting, video publishing, podcasting, marketing, publishing, promotion, reporting system.

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Internet industry)

    January 2005Present (3 years 9 months)

    Responsible for developing a complete "how to" course on how to effectively market and sell using Internet video.

    It shows "newbies" with no more technical skills than basic word processing and web browsing capabilities how to create their own Internet Infomercials that convert more web visitors into buyers than conventional means.

    To learn more, be sure to visit http://www.InfomercialToolkit.com.

    The Infomercial industry has generated over $100 billion dollars in sales. The Internet video and internet video marketing industry is poised to generate even more. Google is expected to surpass over $9 billion in total sales this year alone selling online classified ads in their Adwords business. Their recent aquisition by YouTube.com for $1.65 billion is evidence that large industry players feel strongly that Internet video marketing will play a significant role in online marketing.
