Now that our site is starting to pick up some traction, and is getting an increasing amount of attention from individuals in the video and film space, I thought today would be a good time to link to a January article which outlines Spidvid’s value really well. Our following was much smaller then, and I’ve learned that many readers only check out recent and new blog content so that’s my main reason for doing this.

If you haven’t read it already you should quickly check out How to Attract Video Production Talent for Free. Learn how to share video and film content ownership with your team members because there are many excellent advantages and benefits for taking this strategic approach. I believe this could be the next significant “new media” production model for video and film content. Wholly believing in this incredible vision is what motivates me to jump out of bed each and every day.

Are you ready to start sharing video and/or film content ownership with your team members? If you are then grab yourself a Spidvid account and be sure to create a quality profile so other like-minded individuals are inspired to connect to you.

When most people think of funnels in business the infamous sales funnel is what normally comes to mind. The large part of the funnel are the leads,  followed by the prospects, and finally the customers who actually buy the product or service.

So using the sales funnel as a reference model, I have created the video production collaboration funnel. So the large part of the collaboration funnel are the exciting new projects posted by creators, followed by team collaboration, resulting in a produced video, and the best part which is distribution to viewers.

Production Project – It all starts with the creator having an idea or script, and then finding the right combination of talent to build a team which can execute on the creator’s vision.

Team Collaboration – Each individual plays his or her part on the team, and contributes value towards the main goal which is producing a quality video.

Completed Video – Thanks to all of the hard work by the team, a video gets completed and earns its right to be shown to the world’s viewing audience.

Distribution – The video is uploaded by the creator, and each team member gets the pleasure of receiving credit and any monetary compensations that may come their way through sponsorships and/or advertising.

The key here is to improve the odds so that as many videos as possible get produced and distributed. It all starts with quality projects to catch the interest and attention of professionals so that they are motivated to join the creator’s team.

The average sales funnel sees about 1% (sometimes more, sometimes less) of people becoming customers, our hope is that the collaboration funnel sees a much higher percentage than that. And through some remarkable teams and a little luck we will see some big time video hits that reach millions of engaged viewers.

Many of the large brands we know in today’s corporate world were built on big launches through TV, radio, and print ads. Billions of dollars were spent on telling the world that their products were a must have in everyone’s lives. Well those days appear to be long gone because I can’t remember the last time I saw a 30 second TV commercial for the 250 million+ community that is Facebook. In fact you are likely on your profile page right now (on another browser tab) so if you wouldn’t mind could you please tell your friends that you can’t wait to produce entertaining videos with individuals from across the world very soon on Spidvid, thanks!

We aim to have a very soft launch with no live events or expensive ad campaigns, but through social media, the press, and reaching influeners within the video production community. For our public beta launch (later this year/early next year) it would be great to share some drinks with those who share our passion about what the future of the video production landscape will look like in the next 3-5 years.

We originally planned on spreading the word last week but want to wait until our What Is Spidvid? video has been fully produced and is squarely set on our homepage. We believe in the quote “you only get one chance to make a good first impression” and feel that capturing people’s attention with a quality video is the top way to do that. If it wasn’t then I think we would have never developed Spidvid in the first place.

We expect to start sharing Spidvid’s existance next week as we polish everything on the outside as well as on the inside. Our goal is to ensure a positive first experience for the community we can’t wait to start building, learning from, and growing with.
