Can't Afford Advertising? How A Branding Short Can Help Get You Noticed.

Advertising your business can be expensive. Especially in this economy. But if you have a book, a product, a small business or a cause, you can't afford NOT to advertise. So, what do you do?

If you want to get noticed without having to pay lots of money on media buys, printing or postage, try a Branding Short. It's the new, alternative way to get exposure at a fraction of the cost.

A Branding Short is a mini movie that allows you to share your message with the world through the power of the internet. It's a form of viral marketing.

What's viral marketing you say?

Well, it isn't a cold or the flu. But it is contagious. It spreads from person to person. It's a low-cost strategy that encourages people to pass along a marketing message they think is interesting, informative or entertaining.

If a big percentage of recipients forward something to a large number of friends, the message snowballs very quickly.

Viral promotions may take the form of video clips, interactive flash games, advergames, ebooks, images, or even text messages.

Unlike conventional ads, Branding Shorts are versatile. You can upload to countless networking sites for free. Embed them into your website and post them on your favorite blogs. Blogs are always looking for free content. You can send them in email blasts. You can use them to pitch your wares and create a buzz among potential customers. Branding Shorts have multiple uses - and you only pay for them once. So the sky's the limit!

What makes a Branding Short successful?

The Secret To An Effective Branding Short 

- Keeping it simple with a high concept and a low budget.

- Keep it short, under two minutes. People don't have long attention spans. That's why TV commercials are only 30 seconds long.

- Make sure it has something of value. People will pass along a Branding Short that is informative, entertaining or interesting.

- Keep it visual. Less copy and more pictures and music. Entertainment value goes a long way.

- Do the leg work. If nobody sees your Branding Short, then what's the point? Make sure you share yours with lots of people and don't be shy. Tell them to forward it to their friends. Upload it to as many networking sites as possible.
