A couple of months ago in one of my coaching sessions with my coach and mentor Martin Sage, he told me he wants his own online video show. I told him how you can set up a virtual TV station with Mogulus.
On February 7th we started the show. Lena and Martin set up studio in his living room in Ibiza, Spain. I was watching online and coaching the camera operator through the chat room. That was an adventure. Approximately thirty people were watching online from all over the world: Austin, Berlin, San Diego, New York, Ibiza, Vienna, Stuttgart, Barcelona, Cologne, La Palma, Baltic Sea, New York Upstate, Cold Spring, Santa Cruz, CA. You could feel the buzz of a live experience.
Since then Martin experiments with different formats: interviews, lecture style, answering phone calls and emails, outside pre-produced videos, in studio live shows. That is his medium. He inspired ten other coaches and entrepreneurs to start their shows. Martin developed a whole network of shows: Coach TV by Global Coaching Network.
Since Martin and I met first time October 1999 he tells me that I need my own TV show. I changed my whole life, left Berlin, moved to New York, married an american woman, became a video producer and coach, became father of twins, moved to Austin, became the German Cowboy, produced the video podcast ‘Austin Business Babes’ for my wife Dana, helped starting Martins show, initiated four other online live shows: ‘Austin Spa Girls‘, ‘Love And Sex With Joy‘, ‘How To Talk To Men‘, ‘Women, Sex And Money‘.
As we say in Germany: ‘Das Ende vom Lied ist’, the end of the song is: Sylvester is always behind the camera in service for other people. That is a great strategy to avoid being in front of the camera. Not if you have a coach like Martin and a wife like Dana who are committed to your life’s purpose and never give up: tonight launches Coach TV Austin hosted by Sylvester Becker, the German Cowboy.
Since beginning of April one of the highlights of my week is the production of the online show Sister Lucille at http://www.mogulus.com/sisterlucille. It is such a pleasure to work with a great performer. This show is an example how you can give a message in an entertaining way. Because we are laughing about her, we open our heart and let the message in. ‘Entertrainment’ with a big infusion of humor.
