Advertising

YouTube generates revenue in many ways.  One of its ways of generating revenue is by putting advertisement before a video or interrupts a video with an advertisement.

I hope most people don't advertise this way because I will remember the short advertisement and not go to such businesses.

Good advertisements are fun to watch and enticing.  If you are going to advertise before a short video, your advertisement video better be able to capture your audience attention almost immediately and hopefully in a positive way.

My reaction to advertisement videos before or during a YouTube video is usually one of dislike and irritation.  Sometimes I go on YouTube to search for old advertisement to have a good laugh, be amazed, for a nostalgic feeling or to see how a long standing business presented itself in the past.  Perhaps a rerun of advertisement for long existing business would be advisable.  After all, you already paid for the work once and I wonder how much has your business really changed.
