These aren't something I'm interested in doing anytime soon. But being curious, I have clicked on a couple of these ads that talk about 'Surviving the Upcoming Financial Collapse' and it cuts to a 20 minute long video. There are no fast forward buttons or a link to buy anything. You gotta watch the whole video, then finally there is an offer at the end.

Like I said, this isn't an area of IM that I care to get into, but do these videos actually convert well?? It seems almost counter intuitive to have no links til the end. Just curious to what the psychology is behind this.
 


That's funny... I've been avoiding these for so long but just today I started researching how to put them together (i.e. which software).

They're definitely working for a lot of people otherwise they wouldn't be used so often in a wide variety of markets. They're basically long form salesletters (which convert very well when done right) narrated out with powerpoint and screen capture software.
