Our company allows people to download useful software for their website like a photo gallery http://www.flash-gallery.org/ or an mp3 player http://www.flashmp3player.org/demo.html. People find the content valuable and pass it along to others and the message spreads like a virus from one person to another.

Here's a link to one of my favorite Compendium Blogware clients (for reasons that will become obvious) http://greenfieldliquors.compendiumblog.com/blog/greenfield-liquors/0/0/the-buttery-crown-from-greenfield-liquors This is a small town liquor store in Greenfield Indiana. The owner does these video's on drink recipes and films the salesman talking about their products. If you look at the numbers, these videos get viewed between 50 and 200 times...may not seem like a lot, but given how easy this is (a cheap flip camera and 5 minutes) it's very much worth it. Her quote to me: "We used to sell bottles now I have to order cases on the things we blog about" Do a search on Crown Royal, Greenfield and see for yourself what a great Duct Tape strategy this is :-) Best, Chris Baggott CEO Compendium Blogware www.compendiumblogware.com I love video and it’s really really effective and easy for small business marketing.

I also had a very good friend (:::cough::: girlfriend) work on the Penny Campaign as part of her internship this summer. She speaks very fondly of Bob and that entire team. It's been a huge success for the company (at least in terms of traffic and awareness). My only question is... Does the blatant promotion at the end of the viral videos make it seem more like an advertisement. Obviously, it's pointless to argue the result of the videos, but for me that was a turnoff. Was there another solution? Does it even matter?

In my mortgage practice I use video marketing to keep in touch with my database. One time I received a call from someone on the other side of the planet, India, who was looking for a mortgage here in Arizona. How many times did that video have to get passed?
