Organizing Promotional Videos

Lately I’ve been making videos.  Lots and lots of videos.  I figured maybe they would drive traffic?  Who knows at this point but it’s worth a try!  I would like feedback as I have no idea what I’m doing.  Well, I do have a vague idea…  That’s a start!  Youtube is not something I’ve taken seriously until very recently when a few folks told me I should be taking it seriously.  Apparently, people make a lot of money on Youtube.  Go figure.

My video promotional plan seems to be manifesting in 3 ways.  The first is cross promotion and integrating other store owners.  The second is videos that encompass all my stores and focus on the main brand.  Lastly are the 3 types of individual store videos being personal, professional and silly!

My first example here was made with others in mind!  I’m in something of a product sharing group with a few other online store owners.  Hopefully, this will encourage folks to visit my channel!  Having others involved really does expand the pool of influence.  I find that cross promotion is important so these are the stores of others I put together in a nifty little montage.

Here’s my mosh pit!  I put together a large assortment of product collages with the help of my Polyvore account.  This showcases the variety of products as well as the diversity of graphics in my store.  I like using music because when you add language into the mix it only connects to a personal level people of that language.

This is a video I bought from Fiverr.com and I asked the guy to wing it for my Vacation Photography store.  I think he did a pretty awesome job!  Talk about personalizing content for your audience!

I wanted to add an element of cute and silly so I discovered these two on Fiverr as well.  This promo is for the Vacation Photography store.  I think they did a pretty good job.  What I’m going for is for each store a cute one like this, a personal reference and a professional overview.

This one is a simple opening page montage with the storefront graphics.  Something a bit louder was in order for my page and this fits in nicely.  It’s short and makes the point of store and brand diversity while delivering a little excitement through the music track!

This one is professional and scripted.  It differs from my other Fiverr purchases in that it’s more factual and less personal.  Different situations may call for sharing a different type of video.

I think having 3 per store gives me a good pool to draw from.  Now I just need to figure out where to put these videos!  Placement is almost as important as making them in the first place.  I have a lot more promos to make for all of my stores but I think you get the idea of what I’m going for.

West Virginia, Wild and Wonderful!

This store features my photographic around Southern West Virginia!  This was my first store and it’s the biggest too!  There is a huge variety of scenes to choose from including mountains, lakes, rivers and some train stuff too!

Vacation Photography!

This store has a wide variety of scenic and travel photographic captures from my Aunt and some from my dad too!  I like the way this store looks and it’s cool to see the places my family has been!  It features several shots from Yosemite and the Grand Tetons!  Feel free to visit and “like” what you see!

 

Fractal Graphic Art on Zazzle!

Computer generated graphics has been an interest of mine for years and I was very pleased when I figured out how to create them and incorporate them into products!  This store is foll of abstract art, which is inherently hard to label and for that reason doesn’t get a lot of attention.  But, I like it and that’s all that matters!  I love the way the designs look!

 

Garden Flowers on Zazzle!

My Aunt is really good with close up shots and has a vast knowledge of flowering plants and with that, this store was born!  She has allowed me to use her photos.  I love the variety of colors in this store, you can almost smell them!  This is my newest store and has items that most of the other stores do not have.

Flags of the World!

This Zazzle store is devoted to flags of various nations from all over the world.  I like the different banners and as it’s always been a fascination of mine I decided to make a store featuring them!  There is a pretty diverse product line.  Some of the flags were easier to fit on products than others but I did my best.  I hope you like it!

Conquest Kitty

Conquest Kitty is my cat Random’s store.  After she took over our home of avid dog lovers I decided to dub her with the nickname “Conquest Kitty.”  It seemed to fit.  She than had 2 kittens, Patches and Tiger, of whom are also featured in the store as well as other guest cat appearances.
