Through the power of sharing posts, Casey added a personalized comment and then added info for a call to action to a GRIN event.
At DW Video we preach the importance of testimonials for your business.
Testimonials for your business are important and to be honest, sometimes humbling. I prefer to promote others, however it is important to keep our promotion going as well. Here are a few nice things people are saying about their experience with DW Video & Multimedia, LLC and Buy Local Michigan.
In the example from Casey, aka ‘The Connector’, he knows how to use social media and sharing. Lets take a look at what I mean.
In his post he personalized his message: Another great video by my friend (we are connected on Facebook so he tagged me) Duane Arthur Weed with (and then tagged my Businesses of which he follows) DW Video & Multimedia, LLC about the (he also tags the organization he belongs to and for which the video was produced) Grand Rapids Inventors Network product reviews.
(Takes it another step further and adds more information not listed in the original post) We host 4 product reviews every week and see lots of great ideas and prototypes. (Ending with a strong call to action) Join us at the next GRIN meeting – www.grinventors.org.

Personalize your post within all forms a social media.
Since we began our Buy Local Michigan Video Blog back on January 3rd we have been promoting Michigan Businesses, Communities and People we have met some really great Michigan businesses. One of these people is Doug Kliever. Doug posted on Linkedin and shared his experience being on our Buy Local Michigan Video Blog.
(Personalized message) What a great meeting this week with (we connected on Linkedin after the interview so he tagged me) Duane Weed! (goes on to share his thoughts – powerful and real) He interviewed me this week for his Buy Local Michigan show. Great guy and even better heart. Let me know when I can connect you with him.
Be social, be personal and connect others you know and work with to your network. Connect with them and make it personal. It is important to take these opportunities and share within your social media. I love testimonials. The next step for me is to get some of these on video to have on my YouTube and other social networks. Contact Duane at the office 231-937-5420.

From your Facebook page write good copy to entice people to watch your video.

Canadian Lakes placed on their home page a link to the video page.
How Canadian Lakes used their YouTube Video on Facebook. From their Discover Canadian Lakes Facebook page they posted about a recent ‘coming soon video’ produced by DW Video.
What they did was create a page on their website to embed the video. Then on their facebook page they directed to the Canadian Lakes website. On the home page they have a link to a page with the video embedded. This is a great way to drive traffic to your site. NOTE: the only think I would recommend is to provide the link direct to the page the video is on. We shared this in a past blog post – Best way to use YouTube video links.
Driving people to your website is important. Placing YouTube Video on Facebook is a great way to get social. Ideal in telling and very important – Sharing your message.

Creating a page on your website that has the video embedded is perfect.
Producing YouTube Video on Facebook is an ideal way to inspire and educate your current and potential customers. Sharing the link to your website page that has the video embedded on your site helps drive traffic.

Rockford Website – It began as a way to solve a problem. Lynn Benson, educator and swim coach saw a need for a portable submersible sports clock and counter. Her vision turned into the portable submersible sports clock & counter manufactured in the state of Michigan, U.S.A. Welcome to Splash Count.
This Rockford website was produced by DW Video & Multimedia, LLC. We first produced the video for Splash Count for their old website. When it came time to update the site Lynn came to us to produce the site.
The video used a combination of Lynn explaining the product coupled with a video testimonial and surrounded by video captured with a Go Pro using a 3-axis stabilizer.

When Lynn came to DW Video, Duane turned to website and graphic artist, Johnny B. Photography of the product was our first step. The site uses these photos to show off the product. The header image uses a stock image of a gal and Johnny B combined a few images to show off the product.
Every business has an image. Our goal was to provide Splash Count with a professional looking site.
According to the Splash Count website, “The Splash Count™ is a portable, waterproof submersible digital sports clock, timer and sports team counter. Our versatile product has many applications including use in classrooms, timed conferencing, swimming, soccer, basketball, biking, triathlon, fitness, coaching, personal training, exercise circuits, speed dating, game timer, and game scores.”
