Infomercials – an extra revenue

stream
Infomercials

Script Promotional videos

Every freelancer, whatever their speciality, is looking for new

revenue-streams. New ways of making money that enhances their
mainstream offering, requires no new overheads, and requires no
new skills.

Ideally, it should also differentiate them from their competitors –

another value-added service to enhance their portfolio.

In one of our sessions, for example, we looked at a subset of PR

services, which can exactly fit the bill.

In this last session we looked at ‘Infomercials’, and I have one of my

students, G H Sarjos in Atlanta to thank for this suggestion.

Increasingly, clients are looking to add mini informational videos to

their websites, and they turn to freelancers to write the copy. But
why stop there? Why not offer a one-stop-shop? The beauty is that
you don’t need to know anything about video production - experts
do that for you - for peanuts.

We looked at GH’s infomercial, and as a pest control-expert, I’m sure

he knows NOTHING about video production.

It needn’t be expensive

If you know how, a professional TV presenter, doing the filming,

editing, everything - can cost you just $50. That’s just £30 in REAL
money!

This is one I did for my own website for new writers:

But just imagine – an extra service on your website – Informational

Videos ‘without the hassle, from script to completion’.

So how do you find low cost, TV or video presenters? Easy, you visit a
website dedicated to providing services for five dollars:

The $5 I a bit misleading, but the complete video example I just

showed you, nearly one and a half minutes, including editing,
everything cost me just $50.

To find a pro presenter at fiverr, just do a search for ‘video presenter’

and you’ll find loads, each with a mini video clip to check out how
they look, how they sound. Here’s some I just found:
And if you’ve reached the stage where you’re now earning some
money from your copywriting, why not have your OWN
informational video on YOUR website? For $50 dollars you could add
a million bucks to your sales pitch.

I think it’s a great idea.

Let me know how you get on
