What is your favorite IM video style?

[RayKeller]

Hey marketers,

Just wondering, what kinds of videos you used to promote things like...
- An affiliate offer
- Your own product
- A CPA offer

By the way, what kinds of videos do you prefer?
- A real live person on camera?
- A simple sales presentation?
- A slideshow?
- A powerpoint presentation?
- Screen recording?

Hope to have some honest responses

I prefer "how-to" videos that demonstrate how a product or service is used. My favorite format is the screen recording or anything that provides a type of walk-through. My least favorite format is the live person giving a speech unless its entertaining hmy:.

I prefer animated videos. Even if it is a serious product/service, a video with a little humor makes it more enjoyable

I use either powerpoint slides or whiteboard animations for sales videos.

For instructional videos well presented screen capture videos are the best in my opinion. There was a bunch of vids that came out that had no audio, just little annotations. They were dreadful.

A presenter using a whiteboard can be great as well, but the presenter has to understand what they are doing and interact with the camera.

Slide presentations can be pretty boring unless the delivery is top notch.
