Youtube is HUGE!
If you want to get attention then this is probably the fastest and easiest way to get the attention of huge numbers of people.
I won’t for a minute suggest that these people are buyers but without a doubt they are b-o-r-e-d and if you have something worthy to show there is a high likelyhood you will not only get product exposure but you’ll also get to drive traffic to your site.
You can quickly throw something together with Camtasia or if you’re feeling a little more ambitious have someone demonstrate the use of your product.
You can also add an affiliate link to the description field to get sales. Be sure to use http://… etc. for it to work.
Just in case you can’t think of something interesting to promote as an affiliate there are companies that just promote products on Youtube with this exact method, such as,
brandfame.com
So you could offer this as a type of service for a fee to local companies!
