This is a story I’d normally never cover in this blog, however, it’s an excellent demonstration of what can be achieved through web video marketing.<\/p>\n
The story goes like this.\u00a0 Neenah Pickett is a 42 year-old New Jersey woman who has never been married.\u00a0 By 2010, she wants to find a husband (or the man who will eventually become her husband).\u00a0 The problem is that Neenah is a career woman.\u00a0 She has no interest in bars or the cattle-call style dating sites.<\/p>\n
So Neenah decided to put up a web site…marketing herself…through web video.\u00a0 And because she happens to be marketing savvy, she’s even included video testimonials…from her friends<\/p>\n
But she’s taking it a step further.\u00a0 You see, rather than meeting her potential suitors at a restaurant or a coffee house…she’s first going to meet them through video based mini-dates.<\/p>\n
This will eliminate all the “PhotoShop Kings” (people who don’t actually look like they appear in photos), save her moutains of time…and…allow her to get an idea of the type of chemistry she has with a person quickly and easily.<\/p>\n
But come on now – can an unknown person…with a tiny web site…actually attract a mate this way?\u00a0 You bet.\u00a0 So far, Neenah has had over 70 men submit profiles (men must complete a profile for consideration from Neenah…they can’t just shoot her an email…that’s called qualifying your prospects in marketing circles).<\/p>\n
It’s also a testament to the power of web video…when used with creativity and marketing savvy.<\/p>\n
