Let’s take a moment or two to address some of the misconceptions surrounding video marketing in general and YouTube in particular. Myth 1: You Tube is a waste of time. It’s just silly videos of cats and babies.
While of course, there are a lot of cat and baby videos on You Tube, that’s certainly not the extent of it! YouTube is a microcosm of the larger Internet, and really, the world -there’s good, bad, and everything in between.
Myth number two … for You Tube marketing to work, I’ve got to create some kind of offbeat video that goes totally viral.
While creating a viral video is just one strategy among many, it’s a low percentage approach that may not complement the brand identity you’ve worked hard to build. Most small businesses find success using other methods. Example: using video to educate and inform prospects and customers. And on occasion, to entertain.
