    Please critique my video!

    If you go to the link below, you will see the video of the huge commercial jobs we did in Michigan. I have to have it edited by the guy who did the shoot. Some of his numbers are off, and I will get those changed. But does anyone have any other constructive criticism or comments?

    Thanks for your time!

    By the way, lest you think I only do huge commercial jobs, I have also been posting on here about trash-picking. I want customers who see this video to get the scope of what we can do, but I want them to know we can also do small jobs. Not quite sure how to convey this.

    I really liked the video. I think it did a great job of selling your company's services, Mike.

    I'm not ready to release it to the public yet. I'll do that after final edits. I may do the VoiceOver myself.

    Wow! You weren't kidding when you said that was a big job. Really good video. The narrator is fine, but you might want to fix the part where he says you "service landlords"
    Don't want anyone getting the wrong idea LOL

    Do you keep that many employees on full time, or did that job require a lot of temporary help?

    I think you conveyed that you can handle whatever comes your way with that video. I think it was a good video and you'll surely get more business from it.... good job!

    Those guys are my regular junk removal crew. We did use a bunch of temporary help in addition to them. Fortunately this job happened in the winter when not a lot of junk is removed in Michigan, so it kept us afloat at year end.

    Regarding the narrator, I like the part where he said we operate both hi-los AND forklifts! (We got BOTH kinds of music, country AND western!) :-)
