Videos On Spec

I'm curious if anyone here is doing what I call, "Videos On Spec"..... creating videos for businesses with the Name of the business in Title (Johnson Pest Control) ....... Branding the videos with a businesses Logo, Name & Contact Info....uploading to YT and ranking for the businesses Name (Johnson Pest Control)

Then, when video is on Page 1 (which shouldn't be hard cause you're ranking for a business Name and not a Keyword)....send email to prospect telling them you've made a video for their business (I call these, "Web Commercials") and they can see it by clicking the Link and if they're interested in the video, to contact the producer!

I've made videos for Restaurants by going in and showing owner a video I made for another restaurant AND....I'd like to make a similar video for his restaurant..."at NO obligation", all I need is his permission to take some digital photos...make the video and bring it back in a couple of days and show it to him.

I've had VERY good success with this however now, instead of visiting prospects in person....I'd like to pull some photos off their website and make a video (I use PhotoStory3 for it's zooming feature)

Then....name the video with the businesses Name (as above)....upload to YT, get it ranked for the biz Name....then contact the biz telling them that I've made a "Web Commercial" for them.....etc.

Anyone know anyone doing this????

Thanks,
Don Alm

    • Be very careful.

      I tried this in the spring and one biz owner i created a video for in the way you are describing chewed me a new one, threatening legal action as i had taken pictures from her site without permission created a video, ranked it in google and uploaded it to youtube.

      Moral, create a generic video to show them and if they like it then proceed with one for their biz

  • Yah its a couple of video WSOs that sell this method. Known as the Rank and Flip. The real question is this, is it still as easy to rank videos in todays Google as it was before? That's the rub.

      I'm selling a Video FIRST (a Web Commercial).......gaining the confidence of the biz....THEN, Ranking the video for KeyWords.

      This has nothing to do with "Websites" or "Domains"! It's VIDEOS! Videos are far easier to rank (imo)!
