Smile, You Are on Promotional Video - Promote Your Network Marketing Business With Video By Erik Gifford

No doubt you've encountered some of the millions of short video clips that are floating around the Internet, either in your email inbox or on a video sharing site such as YouTube. Some, if not most, of these videos are posted purely for entertainment value. Video is also an invaluable resource for those who want to promote their business. If you have a network marketing business, you shouldn't overlook this method of promotion. Posting a video about your business really drives traffic to your site if it is done effectively.

Like article marketing, video marketing can be a very effective, cost-efficient way to drive traffic to your site. Many video sharing sites will even let you publish your clips at no cost. Because of that, this mode of promoting your network marketing business should not be overlooked. Take the time to learn how to fully capitalize on this opportunity, and you could soon see quality traffic flocking to your site in droves. Here are a few tips on how to use video clips to promote your network marketing business.

*Keep it short

The Internet is a wellspring of information, and most users want their information fast and in small, manageable bites. Rarely will a user take the time to read (or watch) all of the information available a topic of interest. Instead, he will scan the options and choose the one or two that are most likely to yield the information he wants. Make sure your clip is chosen by getting to the point fast. The entire clip should be no more than 2 to 3 minutes.

*Make it pretty

Aesthetics matter. Your choice of color scheme, background, motion graphics and even font can work either for or against you in terms of driving traffic to your site. Make sure your clip projects the kind of image you want for your company. Most likely these elements will also appeal to your target audience.

*Buy the sounds of it

If people are going to buy what you are selling, it's important, even critical, to ensure that your clip looks good and sounds great. Include sound, via narrator, to emphasize your chosen keywords, and you will greatly increase your chances of successful marketing message delivery. Successful narration will help keep peoples' interest long enough to hear what you have to say.

*Be friendly to your user

The Internet offers virtually endless choices for people looking for information. If your clip takes forever to load, chances are an Internet user will move on quickly. Be sure to use a format that has a small, quick-loading size, such as Flash.

*Set Your Videos Free

If your network marketing business is new or otherwise has low public recognition, it's not likely you'll get much traffic from search engines. Consequently, if your web video is only found on your website, it won't effectively drive traffic to your site. You need to attract the most watchers to your video as possible, and one of the best ways to do this is to submit them to as many video-sharing sites as possible. There is a domino effect in doing this: blogs, other websites, and publishers download your video clips and republish them. When that happens, your network marketing business's exposure increases exponentially.

Video marketing is one way to spread the word about your network marketing business. It often yields impressive results. Learn all you can about how to take full advantage of this technology, and your customers will thank you.

Video marketing is a very cost effective way of bringing prospects to you.Erik Gifford is a network marketing attraction marketing coach.
