Life Coach’s Tip Video (for Marketing)
13 Feb 2010This short, 50 second video is just a quick tip by a Life Coach. She made a lot of these (daily tip video), so she did them herself with a webcam…but she was close to the microphone (so the sound was not too bad) and the she was well lit. This tip involves the law of attraction…which a lot of people search for. Since the video was published 2 years ago, it has been viewed over 10,000 times.

I am highly disturbed by this video…someone thought it was a good idea (what are they thinking?). If you are looking for a truck accident (injury) lawyer…because you were in an accident or know someone who was in an accident…would you really want to see an acted out scenario of an accident? Talk about not being sensitive to what has happened in your potential client’s lives. How about that cemetery scene!
Chiropractor Testimonial Video
7 Feb 2010This is almost 30 seconds…and a total waste of time. Don’t ever think about making videos like this for your company. Nothing was really said…it wasn’t a very good testimonial. “I had a shoulder that hurt and it affected my elbow…he fixed it…and it feels really good now…thanks.” That was the video.

Restaurant Marketing Video
5 Feb 2010This is the worst restaurant marketing video I have ever seen. It really is a 3 minute tour of their website…that is it! The video was way too long and boring (not too mention much was too small and fuzzy to read). It could have been just their website…the page about winning the award…and the closing screen – 30 second long video at the most.

Another Shoe Product Video
3 Feb 2010Here is a competitor’s product video. It is 1 minute long and involves a person introducing the shoe. This video has some personality and the host (a millenial) makes it more engaging. This video has a handy-dandy buy now button…for those that loved the shoe and want it now.
