I recently wrote a post detailing how you could make some money online using a streaming video service. I wanted to write another quick post because I really can’t overstate the power of video in the online money making process. I spoke to you about the popularity of You Tube in my other post, but as I said, things don’t end there.

I wanted to write a brief introductory post today about another way to make money with video. I want to tell you how you can make money by selling a video product. What exactly is a video product? Well, it is a collection of videos that is of commercial interest to others because it teaches them how to create or use something.

Maybe you are passionate about photography. You could do a set of videos that shows someone how to choose the right camera for their needs, how to take the best action shots, or how to do some editing with the latest photography software. Maybe you are a web designer who would be interested in creating a video product that shows people how to build their own site. Anything is possible.

Once you have created your video product, you could sell it on a website that you create, or even burn the videos to a DVD and distribute it to your customers through the mail. You could potentially earn a lot of money because you will be able to keep all the profits you make from this kind of venture. The product will belong to you, and you will be selling it on your own for the price you think it is worth.

To get you started I have a few basic tips for now. First, you need to keep quality in mind. Make sure that you have a good webcam or digital video camera to do your work with. Also make sure that you have the proper microphone as there is nothing worse than a video with poor sound quality. Please also be sure that your video series follows a logical order and that each video is easily digestible. You want to break the videos up into chunks that each cover a specific facet of the subject you are trying to teach.

I hope this post will help you to get started making some money with video. In the future, I will offer more posts on working with video, and on how you can use it to make money from home. I hope you have enjoyed this quick introduction to video products.
