    It looks cheesy and expensive. If you need to resort to that sort of thing then I guess you should take the money and invest it in fixing your product and brand first and then thinking about some gimmicky mhttp://www.reelseo.com/selling-video-advertising/... strategy if you've got money left to burn.

    I mean honestly. Taking someone who is not you, in your company or even remotely related and having them pitch your stuff, on your own website!? Sure that might work if they were doing it of their own volition and a supermodel or something, but come on. Like I said, stick that money into something that you know works...don't waste a potential video ad spot and a chunk of change on it. They say it increases conversions? By "educating" your customers and being the 'wow factor'...

    Yes it's video and it's being used to market something so we should be interested. Actually I'd be interested in testing it somehow if they're interested in working with me on that....but just at face value, I think I've made my thoughts clear.
