Jay,I agree with you 100%. There are clearly some attorneys who simply do not belong on video. In that instance I highly recommend finding somebody else in the office who could create video; even if that means using a staff member to do it.

Gerry, you know I respect you and think you're terrific at what you do. But you're also photogenic, relaxed in front of the camera, and a seasoned trial attorney. In other words, you do good video. But if you take someone who's wooden, nervous and can't get his or her act together you've got a train wreck and a legal marketing disaster.

Victor- now just think what would happen if you create an educational video message that helps explain things to an online viewer who is looking for an attorney. It works.

I will say that I did once take my television commercial (produced by the television station) and put it on youtube. I did this because I was tired of paying the ridiculous costs of advertising on tv. I think linked that video to my facebook and twitter account. It is AMAZING how many people I knew that saw that video and commented on it – and all of that exposure for free. The video was a very basic general intro to my firm. I was amazed at it's exposure.Victor Palmeiro http://www.marylandbankruptcyattorneys.org” target=”_blank”>www.marylandbankruptcyattorneys.org

The worst part is that it's often the videos done bad that go viral. People pass them on to their friends as examples of what not to do. While this may result in a lot of views, it certainly doesn't result in more clients. The key to videos is to be relaxed and friendly, to know what you're going to say but not have a script (which will make you sound stilted), and to make sure that it illustrates your brand. Don't speak to the camera; instead, speak directly to your clients. Your viewers should feel like you're talking to them, not at them.

Marketing your firm with video is the best ROI anywhere. As Victor mentioned in a comment, you must find a video production company that has experience producing attorney video, and not some wedding video guy who in his spare time does attorney video.Being a seasoned trial lawyer and an experienced video producer, I have the unique ability to understand what viewers look for when searching for an attorney. Your first video will be your worst one. The second video; the second worst. Nobody starts out by being "great" with their first few videos.I created the Lawyers' Video Studio to help other attorneys get onto video. A good video producer can coax the shy or reluctant attorney out of their shell to create not just good video, but great video that viewers will watch and convert them to callers.Gerry The Lawyers' Video Studiohttp://lawyersvideostudio.com
