DISQUS

One of the options that wasn't mentioned were the crowdsourced video options that are available for small companies. These are providing content at a fraction of the cost of traditional ad agencies, and often have a higher production value to work done in-house. Companies like GeniusRocket and PopTent have successfully provided companies with broadcast quality video advertisements for a substantially lower cost. For our company, GeniusRocket, we have worked with startups to large brand names like Pepsi. In almost every case the company spent less than $6,000 and had over 20 videos to chose from.

Crowdsourcing has changed the face of business when it comes to graphic design and logos with companies like Crowdspring and 99Designs. Now the future of video advertising is getting ready to change.

Interesting..... crowd sourcing is good stuff.

For video it can be good if someone is looking for one or two videos. Some of our clients want over 10 videos produced a month and optimized for specific keywords.

I do like the idea though.....thanks

Not too impressed with 'Frank Rocco, AdFare' sales pitch. Why doesn't he provide tips other than use his business?

Great insight. My question - besides the obvious answers (Youtube, yahoo, google), which other distribution channels should a business owner be submitting their video to? Is a site like Metacafe or Veoh worth the time? We at Jippidy.com are competing with smaller, more localized video search engines i.e. getfave and zoomsong - which do you see being more valuable long-run? Local video search or traditional search engines?
