[videoblogging] RME and ROI

2008-06-23 Thread Sheila English
My videos promo books. They're called Book Trailers and they are
created to give you a visual flavor of the story. They aren't
traditional commercials. They're meant to be fun. 

We push the video the month before it is released and then a push
during the first week of sales. The first week of sales is what will
determine where you place on a bestseller list. After that, we leave
the video up for as long as the book is in print.

Our videos continue to get hits years after their initial release. I
know that TubeMogul just did a study on the shelf live of online video-

http://www.tubemogul.com/research/index.php?r=7

But we've been doing some RD and the data has been interesting. Now I
need to apply that somehow in significance to ROI.

Residual Marketing Effect is what I'm calling promo longevity that
results in purchases long after the initial campaign.(that might have
been redundant...but hey...it's 3AM and I can't sleep...so this is
what I do) For example, we have a video that is 2 years old that
started getting a bunch of hits all of a sudden. We found that someone
saw it, liked it, bought the book and then blogged about how great the
book is. So we see this increase in views that are resulting in purchases.

I want to write a paper on this to tie it into a sort of ROI long
tail, if you will.

My reasoning is that many of our larger clients are paying $15,000 for
a single USA Today national ad and I want to use this information as
part of my overall pitch to have them invest in online video instead.
I can also use it, hopefully, to encourage product placement or
sponsorship.

Has anyone else worked on this kind of data?

I may be able to write a plugin to accomplish that much. :P

Think you need lots of animated gif's to get the true porn look...
with the occasional star shape covering the main point of focus.

Will research from home later... 

Honest honey, it's for the greater good!

 I have a library of 500+ videos (hosted by blip.tv) and each thumbnail
 shows the appropriate titl in the picture.   
 I want a visitor to see other titles that tweak their imagination to

 So here's the details.
 Currently in WordPress 2.5.1 database.
 Using the latest v.PiP viewer (and displayer).
 Ideally I would like to keep the database content and all the current

 So... is this a pipe dream?

i would first start out by sketching out what you want the page to look like.
and in the spirit of research, find some sites that you think are good
models for what you want.

Mike,

I know exactly what you're getting at. I don't have a quick solution at the 
moment, but I will give this some more thought. Also, it was my understanding 
that some time ago, the Video Archive plugin would allow this functionality.

I made a crazy website using gif animations. My lil' brother drew a
bunch of flipbooks.  I scanned them in and put them together using the
gimp.  Gif's are the way to go for insanity.
