Chesh-Shire? Bloody Septics.

It's different, but the loud noise would likely make me click off the page quickly for fear of anyone surrounding me looking at me like a pr*ck.

Different is good - the phone can't get much quieter than it has been this past 2 weeks... gotta try something different....

Hi David

Where were you thinking of putting this? On your website?

Hi David

John
No.

I'll use it with my social media campaigning.  I can monitor the responses, and it'll drop off the radar screen after a couple of days... unless I choose to re-post it.

Different is good
  Maybe, occasionally.

Personally, I would not want something like that on my own sites as it is not the message that I want to convey.

If it works for you then fine.

i think everybody should spend a small amount of their marketing money on 'excrement'

I think this is a fiver deal so cost £5, its a small amount to gamble on something that might work.

As Mike says, it's just a gig from Fiverr so only cost £3.20 something ....... it is already causing ripples here, sure it will gain interest when David puts it out  ;D

Imagine if now you get a 9yr old doing a follow up video saying.....

" did you see my mum? that's how angry she gets when I spill make up on my carpet.... luckily she has ZAP-CLEAN on speed dial"

Then a week later another video of a man saying.... "Did you see my wife? That's how angry she gets when I .......".etc

All of a sudden you've got an online soap opera, people are looking in for the next video.

Lets look at its possibilities not just just see it as it is

I agree Mike.

When I first saw it I thought it was for David's site and thought it was too strong and gave the wrong impression.

If it goes viral in the social media world then that is a different thing and who knows where it leads?

Thanks for the feedback guys, interesting.

I put this video on my personal (not business) facebook page hoping to engage my mates & contacts, so their friends would see their comments on the video, and hopefully want their carpet cleaning sometime.  I also pushed it out over my (business) twitter channel...

I've already though about the 'soap opera' idea and quite like it... at £3.89 a video it's worth a try, even if it fails.

David you could even get the same woman to do another video....

 "I'm sorry I was so angry on the last video  I had just caught my husband humping the babysitter, but I'm felling a bit better now as i've just chopped off his dick  ....BLOOD EVERYWHERE!! but luckily I know dave at Zapclean is really good at removing stains"

Hi there, we just recently got a video from Fiverr.com also.
I can't however figure out how to load it onto Facebook. When I hit Share link and sign into Facebook an error comes up that says "An error occurred. Please try again later" This happens when I tried to upload it to Youtube also. Why is this happening does anyone know?

Thanks

What is this fiver.com site

Title: Re: Some advice from a friend
Post by: AshWhite on February 13, 2013, 11:44:59 am
It's a site where people state things they will do for $5. A HUGE variety of things. Go and take a look, some interesting things.

I've only used that particular video with my social media marketing (so far)... so no real results at this time.

FYI, I've had several of these short videos made up.  I've used one of them for a trial google adwords video campaign. In a very short space of time it's made:

7,000 impressions, 300 views, 16 clicks to my website - all for £12 (that's the cost of the Adwords campaign).

Ok, I haven't seen any jobs directly from it yet - but it's a location targeted campaign - how's that for brand awareness!
