Facebook Video Ads

**RaysWay** · 08-04-2014, 07:35 AM

Since Facebook started auto-playing video ads, are any pro detailers here taking advantage? While scrolling through my news feed, I`ve seen a few videos from businesses on automotive pages and they`ve always caught my eye. Even without sound, it does grab your attention. I`ll try and find the one I`ve seen multiple times on a South Florida page to post it here. He`s using a foam cannon and a RUPES polisher.

Found his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/highenddetail

He posts great, eye catching Facebook videos that autoplay in my newsfeed. The music doesn`t play unless you unmute the video, but it sure does grab my attention.

I have put a few on FB through my site, (although they are not as good as the ones you can view above).
Sadly I only have 70something followers last time I checked but I have lots of "fb friends" so I also share it on my feed.

The tracker shows that in about a week I get about 150-200 views on avg.

Hasn`t directly led me to any work, but I sure would much rather see videos of clean cars than ice bucket challenges in my feed any day.
I got a response to those, Just haven`t had time to tape and post it yet. But it`s coming.

Remember Brandt, it takes time. So don`t give up on it. It does work

Thanks Ron. I need to step up my video editing skills (or start getting some of those skills I should say).

Video editing is on my list but still battling with designing my website thanks to my wonderful old web designer crashing the previous one.

The fact that this guy uses a foam cannon tells me all I need to know. His/her choice in music is a turn-off as well

Great idea tho

See, the music could definitely work but its a gamble on song choice. I mean, what`s a good detail video song anyways? Such a subjective topic imo.
I`d prolly go with Rock and Roll all Night.hahah

I`ve actually never heard any of those videos, I just see them autoplay in my newsfeed and they always grab my attention. I`ve never unmuted them. If I were to make one it would have a voice-over with information on my business.
