IMO videos ARE great, but they do take a lot of time.  I was doing videos back in 2007/2008 when nobody was.  Especially not in our tiny area of Auburn, NY.  I would do weekly video specials, used car blowouts, etc... I had video auto-responders, video emails, you name it, I had it.  As Joe knows, CNY and especially Auburn is about 10 years behind the times.  With all the videos I used to do, I never really saw a bump in response rate.  Maybe my videos were garbage, maybe they were't.  But I can say this, there was no other dealership around to compare it to.  So "something" is better than nothing, correct?


At the end of the day, I didn't see the results I would have liked for the time I spent putting them together.  Now that I'm the eMarketing Director for 4 stores, my time is limited and it's very hard for me to continue to shoot videos.  Maybe the results will be better in 2015?!  Here's a few that I did.  During the winter I would make them on a green screen.
