Press Release Body: Bristol, UK ( ExpressPressRelease ) 17th september, 2008 -While the pundits were eagerly awaiting Barrack Obama’s acceptance speech at the Democratic Party Convention, over 35,000 YouTube viewers were watching the shock news that Fox News had endorsed Obama, courtesy of online business television network yourBusinessChannel.
Of course, the video was a spoof. The small business TV channel is targeting YouTube as a way to grow the audience for its main product, specialist business TV shows featuring expert business advice (http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com/experts.aspx?m=4) from big names. The satirical viral video, hot on the heels of the business TV channel’s mock Olympics closing ceremony report are all about getting attention, particularly among entrepreneurs who are looking for expert business development advice.
Says the business television network Features Editor Mark Sinclair, “Our business TV shows are particularly strong on online commerce, so it makes sense for us to come where the biggest online video audience is and show people how we can help them.”
Despite its foray into satire, yourBusinessChannel’s YouTube broadcasts focus on its straight business TV shows featuring acclaimed business experts (http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com/Expert/david_scott) like online marketing guru David Meerman Scott, author of best-seller The New Rules of Marketing and PR.
