Hey Kat,

I've seen videos totally help and totally hurt. I think there is a good chance this could help. The worst thing about it is the audio. I've seen it before with your videos where there is this loud hum on the recording. With that said, it's not unheard of that things that are less slick actually do better. I would just run some traffic at it and see how it converts and then do the same without it and see how that converts. I usually spend some money on PPC just to test a squeeze page before I start sending my traffic to it. You never know how things will convert until you try. It's very hard to predict how people will behave. But I like where you're thinking is with this.

Another thing to consider is a similar thank you page video. You can thank people for signing up, tell them how to get their free music, and then either pitch our album or offer another free track in exchange for a like (with the download revealer) or something like that. I think the thank you page is a great place to start the personal connection and let your new susbcriber know you're a real person.

Hmm, yeah, I'm not sure about the hum. I know on some older cameras the machine itself can hum and that can get recorded. I'd try unplugging the fridge and see if that goes away. If not you know it's the camera. Could be some kind of weird interference or something. I'm not a tech guy by any means when it comes to this stuff.
