I have clicked on links and been presented with a video that has a running time of over an hour and no play control buttons. Alternatively if you are teaching then you need to think of the student and present the information such that they can listen, pause, do, rewind, listen and do successfully before carrying on. My first ever blog was created this way and it is was actually a great conversion tool for Rob Benwell as I was too scared too deviate from the videos path as I would be on my own. Thus I went with whatever he recommended and thus it was all setup with ease. Video training is fine as long as there is a pause button.

You and JT put things together in very easy to follow formats, so keep up the good work.

I am recording a series of short videos for my blog (soon to be made into my 1st product!!) Please feel free to comment on them.

But I will say, and agree with others, that a transcript of the video as a tool while watching the video is an unbeatable combination for me. Thanks, Mike Hi Dave,

For my self, I prefer to visually be trained on a topic, as opposed to having to read an eBook. Man, I must say also, that your style of utilizing videos with your products is tremendous. I love the quality of your videos. You always produce top notch products. Thanks for another great post! Best regards, George Nieves Hi Dave,

I like video training because you can just rewind the bit you're not sure of. However I agree with Jacinta about having PDF transcripts. If you had 20 video's and wanted to go over a certain point, how would you know which video to refer to without a PDF reference? Keep up the good work. John Great post Dave.
