The video just sound like complete nonsense. That they are exploiting an FTP weakness in Apple (no one uses FTP anymore) to take $632.14 twice every week is just so idiotic!
Now this is a really ridiculous idea, that you could export money from a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server as money is not a file and it would certainly not be legal to remove anything using a security flaw and then use it to generate income as that is essentially theft or fraud. This video is the most mind-numbing load of rubbish we have seen this week and it is up against some pretty stiff competition.
As we can see from the video, it is an extremely hard sell:
We do not know exactly where they get their sales tactics from, but they must be tried and tested to bother with this much of a script.
The concept behind videos lasting around 16 to 17 minutes doesn’t have a formalized name, but it aligns with principles from video marketing psychology and conversion rate optimization (CRO). This length allows enough time to establish a connection, present a problem, and then introduce a solution without losing viewer attention. Research in CRO and video engagement suggests that this timeframe is often a “sweet spot” to maintain viewer interest, build urgency, and prompt action. It’s an approach refined through A/B testing and analysis of viewer behavior by marketers and content creators, particularly those in the digital sales and affiliate marketing spaces.
What are the conventions for selling with video?
Video sales conventions typically follow a sequence known as the “Problem-Agitation-Solution (PAS)” framework or the “AIDA” model (Attention, Interest, Desire, Action). These frameworks guide viewers from awareness to action, often in a carefully timed structure.
Pioneers of video sales techniques include marketers like David Ogilvy and Claude Hopkins (for foundational advertising principles), and more recently Frank Kern and Russell Brunson in digital marketing. They emphasized storytelling, audience empathy, and a strong call to action to boost engagement and conversion. These techniques have been refined by analyzing viewer retention and response patterns.
Key Conventions
-
Problem-Agitation-Solution (PAS) and AIDA Models: Start with a problem or capture attention, agitate or build emotional engagement, introduce a solution, and end with a call to action. This journey is often timed with careful pacing, from a strong hook to a convincing close.
-
Social Proof and Authority: Using testimonials, success stories, or expert endorsements creates trust. Showing the creator as credible or relatable is essential in video sales.
-
Scarcity and Urgency: Limited-time offers, countdowns, or “only a few spots left” messaging can prompt immediate action.
-
Demonstrations and Visual Storytelling: Video format allows for product demos, especially important for complex products. Creators often use storytelling to make a product relatable and emotionally compelling.
Pioneers and Influencers
-
Claude Hopkins and David Ogilvy: Their foundational work in advertising laid the groundwork for persuasive sales messaging. Ogilvy emphasized research-backed methods and emotional appeal, which remain crucial in video sales.
-
Frank Kern: Known for pioneering video-based direct-response marketing online, Kern used storytelling and emotional triggers to build trust and connection.
-
Russell Brunson: As the founder of ClickFunnels, Brunson popularized “funnel” strategies, focusing on the AIDA model. His methods prioritize the customer journey, making sales videos feel personalized and immediate.
-
Gary Vaynerchuk and Marie Forleo: These modern marketers use authenticity, value-driven content, and personal branding in their videos, focusing on building long-term loyalty rather than hard-selling.
These figures have influenced countless marketers to adapt video strategies that balance informative content with strategic persuasion, evolving based on viewer psychology and technological advancements.
The fact remains however that you cannot remove anyone's money using the file transfer protocol and that if you could it would have to be by robbing people of cryptocurrency left laying around and therefore illegal.
