Here are a couple comments on each: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqPfcqJh2-Y The first one seemed to be more of an intro or preview to more videos down the pike. The problem with this is that with the internet, this might be the only video your audience sees of you. I suggest treating each video as "self-sufficient". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoQ_dka2Cfc This video was better than the previous in that it was more informational. While we each must find our own styles and voices, I would recommend taking on a little lighter and faster tempo style. Even though the subject matter might be serious, make efforts make your video interesting. Also, break the information you sharing into "bite-sized pieces". Online audiences have short attention-spans. To keep their interest, think bullet points. Much like outlining in law school. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Myh-mPmsQ4 To me, the third was the best of the three. You spoke directly to the audience as if they had just recently been arrested and gave them some tips on what they should do immediately. It was more concise than the previous one as well. Again, remember to keep it interesting. William-

But the hole is that I don't see any tactic being employed to capture the leads information. The trade of information for information is critical in order to obtain the permission to continue the marketing conversation. The third ad is clearly the best – for an online video.

It truly is amazing what a difference implementing some of these basic principles makes. For more examples, just perform a quick YouTube search for "lawyer advertisements". Providing value to prospective clients is one of the most effective ways to distinguish your practice from the pack. Judith-
