Promoting With Video. This hasn’t been done yet.
Hey you!
So you know how a lot of times you go to check out a product and there’s
a video that you can watch first thing. Sometimes it’s 2 mins and other
times it’s like 10 - 15 mins long. It’s great either way because video is so
much easier to watch than reading.
Anyways, one of the biggest problems these videos posed is that affiliate’s
or people who wanted to promote whatever the video was selling, couldn’t!
The reason they wouldn’t be able to promote is because the video would
use a redirect built right into it and you wouldn’t be able to put in your
Affiliate ID. So you just didn’t promote it. It’s happened to me many
times.
What sucks even more is that video has been known to dramatically
increase the amount of sales that a website generates because people
like video so much!
But without being able to promote as an affilate, all the sales were caught
by only the product owner. BOOOO!
Well a young buck named Eric Holmlund and his buddy Mike Nicholas
have developed a simply awesome solution to this problem called “Affilate
Video Brander” and it kicks a$$.
What the software does, is it goes to the site with the video, and it grabs
a copy of the video, complete with sound, and makes it’s own copy of it
and then you can create your own webpage with the video right in it!
Even better is that you can now insert your own affiliate link into the
video and capture the affiliate commissions for it as well! Problem
solved! Furthermore, as I said before, video has a huge impact on
people so not only will you now collect affiliate commission from
promoting videos, you can actually make a heck of a lot more sales!
Eric has actually included a couple case studies to illustrate the idea I’m
talking about above. He also goes on to explain the “Vlog and Zing”
concept which has absolutely amazingly huge potential for you bloggers
out there. Ya I know the name is corny…but wait till you see what it is.
If you want to go check out this nifty piece of software and read about
Vlog and Zinging, here is the link. I’m sure you’ll enjoy this one!
That’s all for now!
