Just Created My Own Book Preview Video! But—is it only useful if it's done by a professional?

[Pete]

I just self-published my first book last fall, DADspirations: The 1st 100 Days of Fatherhood, and was told by several people to have a book preview video made. I couldn't afford the +$1,000s that people were charging so I made my own (http://youtu.be/CtIUWO27C0M). While it won't win any Oscar awards, it seems like a really solid book preview video could help give that extra nudge to someone who is more visual (or young, LOL). What are your experiences/impact you've had with trailers? DADspirations: The 1st 100 Days of Fatherhood

I do my own. However, I have a fiverr gig and will make you one if you want. http://fiverr.com/users/aslynelf2010/...

Can check out my trailer for my books:

BTW, the one you did is pretty good.
