Helpful tip for people who hate sitting through sales page videos.

I'm not sure if this always works.

But I have tried it on 11 different sites and its worked with all but one, but i'll show you how i got around it.

I know video is taking over - its a very effective marketing tool.

But if you're like me, you hate sitting through videos that dont offer any controls. (fast forward or rewind.)

You never know how long the video is and its a pain to sit through them some time.

So what i've found (and im using an iphone), is if you visit the sales page on your phone -- the controls reappear.

It worked on 10 of 11 sites that had videos and no controls.

I just typed the url into my phone's web browser, pressed play and boom.. I could fast forward through the video.

The reason one site failed to work was because it was a flash video by camtasia..the fix to this was to download the skyfire app to my phone.

It allows you to watch flash videos on an iphone. Im pretty sure other phone users wont have this problem.

Skipping through video is great if you're an affiliate and you're digging for marketing material.

You can also skip through video to find good information for your email marketing campaigns.

And sometimes you just want to buy without the extra hassle.

Anyway, I hope it helps.
