Google and TV Commercials... Is this where we are heading?

8 replies
Hi Warriors,

Frank Kern sent this out to his list today and I thought I would post it here to see if anyone has ever done this.

It's about putting out your own t.v. commercial on major networks (fox news, mtv, abc, cbs, etc...) by using Google.

Here is the link to the video:

Put Out Your Own Commercial By Using Google For Less Than $100

I think I might just try this with a cpa free trial offer and see what happens. I have to figure out how to make a good commercial first.

Has anyone done this before?

    Yeah, i just saw this today - amazing huh? Google really are Big Brother! Bet they'll be pi$$ing off a lot of media agencies......

    My production company is setting up to provide production services for marketers wanting to create these ads.

    Though I'm sure, like adwords, without real expertise and understanding of audience demographics and the TV industry in general, it could be easy to blow a lot of $$s for no result!

      Blowin' money is right. If you don't know what you are doing I bet you would blow a bunch of cash. I do think it is something worth looking into if you have the budget.

    That is very cool.

    With a bit of playing around and getting used to, I think this could be a fantastic way to promote your product or service.

    Thanks for posting this Deezy

      Your welcome.

      I am looking into this today and I am going to take the rest of the month to learn more about this. I am going to try and do this with a small budget as a test and then I am going to get working on a commercial.

      I will let you guys know how it goes.

    This is a great piece of functionality added by Google and has lots of potential.

    However, one of the most important things to capture from video above is that they paid $1300 dollars for 1,000 visits.

    For some markets this would still be a good CPV, but at $1.30 per visit it's still very expensive for traffic and your site really needs to convert at a high rate to be able to cover costs.

    All that said, there is still lots of potential for someone to make a boatload of cash using this new service. It will be easier than ever to get into the TV media game now.

    Saw this earlier today (on a post by Matthew Neer: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...tional-tv.html ). Sounds Amazing but still a bit too expensive.

    Health, Beauty Products...geez I'm getting good ideas with this.
