Dear Reader,
Marketing
products or services online is not as easy as it once was. Gone are the
days when you could throw a website up on the internet, post a couple
of posts on related forums and start reaping the sales without any
further effort. That isn't to say that forum marketing doesn't work at
all, but it is just one method in your arsenal.
The smart marketers know that they need targeted traffic from as many quality sources
as they can possibly acquire. The best methods to use are those that
attract traffic from a hugely popular site that can give you dead on
targeted traffic.
And one of the best sources for targeted traffic is Youtube!
All
you need to do is get your piece of the traffic pie, and one way to do
that is to post quality videos that are targeted to your product or
market.
Many people get a little apprehensive when I mention
video marketing or video creation to them. They have visions of getting
out a camera and getting all tongue tied while trying to create a video
for their marketing purposes. Well relax, there is an easier way for
you to create stunning marketing videos!
These methods:
- Require no camera or recording equipment
- Do not require you to speak even one word
- Are simple to use, even for someone brand new to video creation
- Are free to use (I will show you one paid platform however)
- Are all drag and drop
- Free content is available to create your videos. I'll show you where.
Believe
it or not, short videos under thirty seconds are very effective for
video marketing. The trick is to get your message across in a short
time frame. Making them too long can bore your viewer, and making them
too short may not tell them enough to make them want to click your
link. So it is a bit tricky. My research has shown that between 20 and
30 seconds of videos is ideal to get your message across, yet leave
them curious to find out more.
It really isn't as tricky
as it sounds. You just need to plan a short catch phrase and have some
related images. You can use these videos for marketing your own
products, affiliate products, or services.
Never use a video
that has been supplied by someone else for marketing purposes. Create
your own and put your own spin on it. You will get much better results!
In this video series I will show you how to get your videos created in a few easy steps!
