San Francisco based..Yelp shot our Video Jan 11, 2011

Seattle House Painting contractor Shearer have decided to throw our lot in with YELP. Upgrading from a free listing to a featured listing is $300 per month plus $50 for a video from Turn Here video. The idea of a featured listing is to improve exposure; by making sure your business visible for a category search..ie painters. IMHO Yelp's success with local search has compelled the mighty G (google) to tweek their SERP in early October adding weight to Google PLACES in their algorithm. The strength of Yelp for local search when compared to Angie's list or city search for service companies is undeniable. Our service began Jan 1st; so by the end of the year we can measure leads, and leads that turn into business.

Yelp contracts TurnHere video to film and produce a web video. TurnHere hopes to convert you into a customer to make more videos on a subscription basis; good business model. TurnHere contracts local video talent to do the onsite. Jeffery Morehouse from Tamago Films came to our office for the filming. Jeffery was the consummate film pro; our shoot was less than an hour and he helped us with our script. We had alot of fun with Jeffery and he filmed four Shearer employees; and our friend Debbie Steiner publisher of LUXE magazine and LUXE source play the part of a Shearer customer. If you want to contact Jeffery his email is jm@tamagofilms.com

When the video is finished you will be able to see it at our Yelp Business Page

excerpt from the YELP BLOG 2010

Today we're excited to announce that Yelp advertisers now have the option to add video to their business profile page. I've personally viewed hundreds of these videos and I have to say that they can really help yelpers get a sense of a business's ambiance, personality and specialties in a very short amount of time.

I don't know the guys from Let It Ride Design, but I do know this, if I'm ever in San Diego and in need of some creative design work - I know who to call for a quote. Why? For starters they have great reviews, but beyond that, well... see for yourself.

Now clearly, taking the entertaining "Spinal Tap" approach to video isn't for all businesses. We are working with the fine folks at TurnHere to help biz owners create something that captures the essence of their business. These guys are good, and the proof is in the pudding. Consider how connected you feel to these fine establishments after viewing their videos: PR Motorsports, Strings Restaurant, Dr. Jarrod Cornehl, Genki-Ya Sushi, Cole Hardware or Fine Arts Gilcee & Frames.

If you are a current advertiser with Yelp please contact your account manager for more information.
