Video marketing

Just wanted to let you know about our video channel on YouTube - www.youtube.com/apicreativemedia to see all of them or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99zUW8Kz0wY
Currently there is video up from both producers and last years Jr. National Angus Show. I was amazed at the number of cattle videos that on YouTube, especially sale videos. It is always nice to look at a video compared to a photo.

I am going to try and video my brothers calf crop this fall for his sale.    Any ideas on where to get started on a video camera?

Power Plus/Duff's have some awesome cattle. It was a lot of fun being out there taking pictures and footage of that high quality of cattle.

Also to MYT, you would be amazed at what a tripod can do for your quality of video. A lot of people think they can hold a video camera steady enough, but it can end up pretty shaky.

That was a great video, thank you for sharing.

I'll vouch for the tripod idea.  We did our sale bull with out one and its tough to make it look professional (especially when its -15* wind chill)  You ca check ours out at    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_QPi5srNb0

Hey just thought I would share another reason why video marketing is such a great idea. The video at the top of this topic was produced by us and placed on YouTube. On March 9th I posted a link to the Power Plus video on Steer Planet. YouTube has insight data that the give you for FREE. I was able to tell that on March 9th 40% of my views came from steerplanet.com. I also was able to tell that the majority of the people that watched my video were from KS, IA and MN with CA a close fourth.

Sure Power Plus had the initial cost of the video, but I don't think you can buy advertising like that anywhere else. The Internet is a great place to spread your word. We have more videos up at http://www.youtube.com/apicreativemedia This is one of my favorites that was for the 125th Anniversary of the Angus Association. Just makes you feel good about being in the cattle business.
