I am really so surprised at the number of marketers using videos now. I find most of them so incredibly dull and boring and I find myself wishing I could fast forward to the 'meat' of the topic, much like I scan pages looking for exactly the info I want.
Youtube is no doubt entertaining and I can get lost there watching videos for quite sometime; however.. marketing videos? What could be more boring? When I hit a page with a video, 9 times out of 10, I will close the page. Surely I am not the only one.
I am really curious as to how successful you find video marketing compared to simple text. Anyone care to answer that?

well i have about 25 videos floating around. If you make the video showing text and audio, you can make alot of them. I have 2 of them on youtube but ive gotten only like 8 clix in 3 weeks. Although i should point out that i got the last 4 clix last week because i started promoting them.
Heres the deal. Just putting up a video wont get you traffic. I find that i had to promote those 2 videos in order to get clicks from youtube.

I've also been thinking of video marketing, seeing how I'm good at doing videos. I've done my church's production for 5 years now, and I'm good with green screen and visual effects. I use Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, and though it was expensive ( $800 ), I think its the best out there and easiest to use.
I've heard that video marketing is the way to go, guess I'll give it a try soon

The most effective use of videos in my experience is to communicate or re-enforce the sales message... on your site.
It takes some savvy to know how to get your videos watched on YouTube and others - do it still, but putting all your eggs in that basket is unwise for many niches - for others it can be more effective.
I've been using video for a few years with my marketing. I keep getting better and better and more focused in terms of what result I want - and I get the result more often too... in terms of opt-ins, sales, or educating my customers.
Just like anything you get better with practice.
I would recommend against basing your whole marketing strategy around social video media and making talking head videos to share with network marketers via YouTube - the situation there has got kind of silly.
