And, what’s keeping you from creating it?

Or, if you have created it, what’s it about, and feel free to share the link!

I’d recommend posting the video to YouTube first, then embedding it on Facebook. That way you get all the search engine visibility of YouTube PLUS the engagement of Facebook. And the views on FB count towards your YT views.

Remember: most people still aren’t on FB, and most who are aren’t looking for business solutions. But when they Google something, your keyword-rich, how-to video is right there!

@annfurnivall

You’ve got to try new things. If you’re batting 1.000 it means your not trying very hard!

I’m saying that combining the two works best. You can develop an audience at YouTube just like at Facebook (subscribers, really.) YouTube reaches it’s audience and everyone who’s doing an appropriate search.

BTW, did you know that YT had 800K unique visitors monthly? That’s almost as many users on Facebook!!

@rich-brooks I also believe having a video on Youtube is good, but what I don’t like is that when people view it, on the right hand side is other videos that pop up and people then by curiosity click on those and go away from your page. Subscribers are good, but how many subscribers have been converted to a client? Sounds like you have used this a lot.

ps….i have posted  this you tube  idea on  2  retail  circles im on  and havent    found any  stores  who  use it  or    who think  you tube  would  be  worth the effort……they   see it as a fun place  and  where to  see music, jokes and  john stewart if  you missed a show…not as a place to search  for shopping  places….   im  keeping an open  mind  tho….and   waiting  for some   more  facts  relating  to     my  field  ….

i have  plenty to keep me  busy with  facebook,  pinterest  and   my   email   work…

@deairby i think  you`re  right  dea…that would  be  fun….and  fitting  for the   facebook page or  maybe the  website, if not  you tube….  none of us w ant to b e  filmed  so far!!!….

 just  for  vanity…i would love to have a store you tube  channel!!!

funny  dea….. 

i guess its learning curve, people and time….the  worker  who  could figure out the mechanics   and   do it  does most of our  computer work, some of   our   facebook, email marketing ,  counter duties, jons  blog,picture updates on the website, answers  emails,our ebay, inhouse signage  and  works just  3  days a week…….all this   while   dealing with our  counter, which  is 20 or 30  transactions   on a slow  day….too much info??  sorry…lol….. if i  get   convinced it would be good i will  probably have to hire someone to  come in and  do it…..  i havent  seen  much evidence  of   my  kind of store on you tube  yet….  but i  figure the  video  part  would  be  good  anyway @deairby

@warrenveach GOSH IT LOOKS  SO  GOOD…..   THANKS ,  i can  see it as  good  even  if  it  would just  get  seen   from  our  website  and  facebook….  and maybe  there is  more  searching on there than ive heard  about…. and thanks  for the   links  too!!! …….

.  just and intro and a little  tour   doesnt  sound that   hard….and i  think we have  some  who  ca n  do powerpoint…we already own a  copy of a tv ad we  ran last  YEAR…. 

I did a quick video on the new FB biz timeline changes in March and last I checked, over 1000 people had viewed it. I was shocked at how easy it was. Am definitely going to do more.

@warrenveach thanks again……today i  had my  tekk person  look thru  your post and links  and   it was  wonderful….she  had never  thought of just  doing  power poin t for a start……so it was a real  eye opening  thing….and  we might  be starting on it    tomorrow…she whipped up  something  pretty nice in  just a few minutes…we already have a channel….im  excited and hope to look at lots  more  places   on there  tonight…

so  GLAD I FOUND THIS PLACE!!
