When most people think of marketing their products or services, video is not the first thing that comes to mind â even though promoting your business with Video Marketing is one of the most effective ways to reach a targeted group of people. Letâs take YouTube, the largest video sharing site on the Internet. Here you can find everything from stupid pet tricks to instructions on how to repair a car engine. With over 60 million unique visitors, imagine how much traffic video marketing can bring to your website. Before you rule out videos, thinking that you donât know how to make a video or that you are camera shy â a video is not difficult to create (there are a number of instructional videos online) and you donât necessarily have to show your face. If you have a product, you can demonstrate how to use it without ever being seen. You can use images or a slide show to promote through video. You can even use someone else if youâd like. YouTube can be viewed in 18 different languages, with the possibility of your products being shown literally around the world. You donât have to start out with high tech equipment. In fact, you can use a webcam to make your first video. What makes video such a great marketing tool is that viewers can leave comments, which you can use to improve your product. Once you have completed your video, donât forget to include your URL so viewers know where to find out more about you and your products. If your video is not perfect the first time, itâs okay. Your main goal is to promote your product or service, not to win the best video of the year award. If you need help creating your first video, there are several resources available on the Internet to help. The most important thing is to get your video marketing campaign started. Practice makes perfect and you will improve over time.

Would you pay $20 for the last few levels of your video games?
Video game designers, developers, and manufactures have recently started a campaign against resale stores like GameStop and rental chains since they don’t see profit from secondhand sales or rentals. Even Bungie claimed large losses on Halo 3 because of video game resale stores. Game developers are now considering the option of making games to where you have to pay up to $20 (via unlocking the levels online) for the final levels of a game if you aren’t the game’s original owner. Some companies have taken the idea further to lowering the game cost at retail and making all of their games to where a $20 fee is required to unlock achievements/trophies and the games final levels. Game makers feel that this will increase their profits for their work and help to put an end to some forms of piracy. What do you think? Is this good for the video game business?
MY PERSONAL OPINION: If game developers are getting angry at the profit losses that they are taking because of resale stores like GameStop/EB, then they should stop feeding them promotional materials and focus it instead on pure retail outlets like Best Buy and Wal-Mart. Every time a game maker pushes a product with “bonuses” at a shop like GameStop, they are promoting the idea of selling it back to the store for resale when they are finished with the game. I have never been one to buy used games unless they are imports or for one of my older systems. However, I feel that a downloadable ending will limit the market more than game makers would like because there are still areas where the high speed internet connection that is required is not available or affordable.
I buy games new as it is anyways. I still own every game I have purchased also. I think that the creators are reaching a little bit on this one, just like the music industry and the film industry are. You are not going to stop people from making a buck off of a good idea like gamefly. Speaking of which, didn’t halo set some record for the sales of Halo 3? O yea it was the most grossed income for a title release in entertainmen HISTORY, this is a joke and they want to make a few more million before they are happy and even then they will be pissed that people are using their copyrighted name on yahoo answers. lol
