This happened nearly 1.5 years ago. I was selling in eBay and I decided to make a video to promote my website that I created back then.

The video was made for fun when I and my friend was going in Uber to the club on the weekend. It was not pre-planned and captured using a shitty smartphone camera.

I edited the video in Sony Vegas within a few hours, added some music and promoted it in FB ads for a week.

I forgot the exact Cost per view for the video but it was around 0.15 INR per view or somthing and garnered around 30,000 views and 600 likes in nearly 2-3 days. Then the cost per view increased and I stopped the ad in a week or so. During that time I got 53 sales.

Here is the video (This is the Youtube upload with organic views)-

Now my question is, why do you think this video got so much attention?
And how can I and you create something like this that captures peoples attention in their respective business?

Comments are welcome :)
