Hi, Graham:

It would be interesting to know how this vid is converting. For production quality and presentation, it scores high.

However, I think it would tend to attract two specific groups of people: current PIPS members curious to know what the "warning" is, and current opponents of PIPS who seek more fuel to fan their flames of discontent. In either case, they will quickly discover that this is not a "warning" video, rather, it is a PIPS recruiting video.

I wonder, too, if legitimate prospects will become disillusioned after the first minute once they discover it is not a "warning" but simply a promo?

Maybe that's just my first impression.

Very well done Graham.

Did you make the video using all free resources?

Very professional!

Good luck with it!

p.s. I agree somewhat however with GT about the negative aspects - it seems popular these days to 'bait' people and personally I do feel I have been mislead or tricked when it turns out to be the opposite of what is first promoted...

I am sure it must work though since so many are doing it.

mmmmm,

thank you both for the feedback. I must confess, I myself was a little dubious about the tactic of using a warning, but I am guessing that it will attract more eyeballs than if it was just another ordinary promotional video...whether they will be the eyeballs I want, remains to be seen.

I think the warning I use in the video is hopefully giving a much more true perspective of pips than anyone joining would otherwise have had....until of course after they have joined..so in that respect I feel the video does not neccessarily trick people.

Thank you both also for your comments on the video quality etc...considering I was only playing whilst off from work with man flu, it's not turned out too bad.

And yes Pat, I used entirely free resources to make the video....i was going to add a few other elements such a music, but hey....it's turned out okay me thinks

Thanks again

Graham

I see it quite often, "Do Not Join XXXXX Until You've Seen This". I usually see that when I'm looking for something specific. Since I already know it's a promo I avoid them but I'm not sure first time surfers, if there is such a thing, will already know what's going on.

For first time newbies they'll look at it in curiosity if they are searching for PIPs info and for those who have been around they'll keep on going.

Actually the only videos I look at now are ones that offer some valuable content. They offer me more than I will ever have to give in return. That's how you get customers and subscribers who will last a lifetime, give them far more value than what they will ever pay you for.

Most have probably noticed everytime a new program or a new version of a successful program comes out the big time affiliates offer a ton of bonuses. It works very well, especially on me. If I am going to join a program I look to see who offers the most and what I need.


Graham, good job on the video

Hey, Graham! You made the video? Awesome!

As I mentioned in my first comment, the production and presentation quality are top notch - I truly am impressed!

And I agree with your comments a few posts ago that the info you provided about PIPS and how it is presented is very accurate and much clearer than I've seen it presented in some places.

I still have reservations about the reverse psychology method of getting attention, even though you do clearly explain the "warning" near the end and wrap it up very well. The proof of the technique will be in the pudding, as they say.

Oh. One more thing, if that is YOUR voice, you could make a career in narration! I would buy stuff from that guy!

Thanks Stephen for your comments...always constructive and helpful.


Steady on GT.......you flatter me

I obviously hear my own voice differently to how you hear it I made a few mistakes during the naration, I think I even had a little chuckle over one, but left it in ...sounded a bit more authentic & less robotic.

As you say, the proof will be in the pudding lol

Thanks again for your awesome comments.

Graham
