This was one of the ideas that was touted by some gurus at a recent IM seminar that I attended. This immediately brought up all the issues of how do I do this?
1) What software do I buy for creating the pop ups and unders, etc to add to my sites.
2) How do I record these videos?
3) What will be the content of these videos?
4) How do I add the video to a pop up?
All sorts of how to’s were whirring around my mind. Then I got a sales pitch in one of those emails that I signed up for. It was for a new software that had automated sales people on your pop ups, answering questions with preset answers. This was meant to help increase the percentage of sign ups to your list and also improve your conversions. All the promises sound good. Anyway, cut a long story short, I bought it.
The software come with some easy help videos and shows some great ideas on how to use them.
I am going to implement this across a few sites and will report back on how to effective they have been for conversions and sign up. I will also answer some of those questions I had above.
BTW, that product was the Virtual Sales Agent and it is worth watching the videos for some great ideas on what to do with all that traffic leaving your site.
