Time to Test YouTube Ads!

First of all, let me say:

I kinda hate YouTube ads.

I don’t allow them on many of my own videos because I think it’s just…well, tacky.

Plus, MY videos in general are meant to serve my viewer’s interests and throwing up a blatant ad in their faces says:

“Hey! This video is about ME making a couple of pennies as you invest your time and attention.”

I think that kinda sucks…

BUT…I’m not really opposed to showing an ad of MINE on other people’s videos who don’t feel the same way!

I’m basically talking about what are called True View In-stream ads.

You know…the ones that play at the beginning of a video that you can Skip after a few seconds?

Here’s the thing:

I skip these all the time (pretty much) BUT it turns out that 72% of these ads are actually watched to their completion.

This blew me away! And these ads are dirt cheap…right now.

This will probably change soon as you start to see more & more top marketers using them and telling the world how cheap and effective they are.

Remember all the “buzz” about FaceBook ads?

This is an opportunity to “make some hay while the sun is shining”!

I’m investigating and testing it.

If you want to follow along with what I do, how I do it, and what I find out:

I’ve created a special interest list to communicate everything I do, in real-time as I do it, in the real world, in my own business.

I’m seriously not messin’ around with this! In fact, I’m pulling in the big guns to help me do it right:

  • Gideon Shalwick
  • Zane Miller
  • Peter Beattie
  • And more…

These guys are doing this and I’m in personal communication with each of them working specifically on weeding through the crap and getting to the bottom of putting this to work on MY bottom line for real.

My research is also popping up a select few YouTube experts that I will also be leveraging like Derral Eves, Jake Larsen, Tom Breeze and some other folks you may not have heard about.

Wanna follow along?

I currently have 55 pages of notes, strategy, tactics, instructions, tools, and resources…

My planning documents. I’ll be using and refining these as I move further to my final determination: Does this really WORK? Or not…

I’m going to share all of it with like-minded individuals who think it might be a good strategy too.
