Re: [videoblogging] talkin' bout money
But its not about just sending out the video on a DVD; its also about changing some of the content to keep it current. I think thats some of the interesting part. The chance to constantly refine the piece thats sold. It's kinda a double-edged sword... you want to be done with the video at some point, but you also want the information relevant.

Re: [videoblogging] talkin' bout money
I have been noodling on an idea for over a year of licensing our content to companies for use on the intranet. Most people tell us they watch to reduce stress and get my head back on square while at the office. Lots of companies block YT and other internet sites, and actually want to drive people to the intranet for important company-related messages. HR materials to help people be healthier are so dated. Having modern, clean content that is is health-oriented, or comedy (laughter is healing - science has proven that), informational - well it just seems to me a natural fit. Yes the co could get it for free online, but that means opening up a port and by licensing it for internal use, they can get a custom feed, better quality, timed episode releases, and then there are all sorts of possibilities for integrating specific content ideas and internal messaging too. I've not yet been able to sell this to a company - approached Intel last year but they responded We've never done anything like this before. Which of course, I knew. So it will take a very forward-thinking company. As a former health coach. I would even bet that watching Beach Walks daily for a few months could lower people's blood pressure - and now we are talking serious savings in the health care costs department. I'd love any ideas you folks may have on this. Or leads to HR managers. Though I really am heading back to billables and will check in later today.

Re: [videoblogging] talkin' bout money
I lied. I'm still here. I made a chart of CPM rates gathered from a Web Video Report article here showing higher value for targeted and downloadable media. http://www.barefeetstudios.com/2008/04/03/targeted-downloadable-video-commands-highest-value/ Just FYI.
