Minnesota Online Video
Looking into the World of Online Videos for Marketing & Recruiting…and other stuff.

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.

IT Services Marketing Video
30 Jan 2010This video is just under 3 minutes. I must say, I did not care for slightly pixelly black & white video all the way through. The first 30 seconds answered the what we do/who we are question. After that, additional benefits were listed – real person on the phone, licensing compliance, etc.

Outside Sales Position Recruiting Video
28 Jan 2010This video is a little over a minute long. You hear from the hiring manager and boss for this position…also in the video you see such a territory sales person at work. The hiring manager explains what the position entails…and that they have a great atmosphere and training program.

Locksmith Testimonial Video
26 Jan 2010This is a 23 second testimonial video for a 24-hour locksmith. There was a constant camera shake, the lighting was poor, and the sound was bad (they used the built-in microphone on the video camera). Technical issues aside…this is what you call a “cheerleader” testimonial video. Not much was said other than “they are great!” Even the “you can reach them anytime” was not very informative…I think you could reach most 24-hour locksmiths anytime.
