TalkMarket.com - Online Video Marketplace

Amazon.com has just invested in The Talk Market, the newest way to sell goods online.

The Talk Market is a video market place, meaning instead of using pictures and text to explain goods for sale online, The Talk Market uses an infomercial-style tactic to deliver information. Online videos convey info to curious potential buyers, making the website an internet version of television shopping networks. Users can browse through various shopping categories, or complete their own search. In addition to having the option to watch a video on the various products, users also are provided with price, shipping and handling charges, and additional basic product information.

“With the public beta launch in 2008, The Talk Market is a television shopping channel hosted by you! Anyone with a product to sell can upload a video featuring their product and be a part of our unique and entertaining marketplace. The Talk Market was founded by television shopping channel veterans who recognize that there are millions of amazing products out there that might never get the chance to be on a shopping channel - now they can! If you like something you see, you can purchase it right here - The Talk Market facilitates credit card transactions between members of community in one easy step.”

The Talk Market allows users to learn and see much more about the items which they may potentially purchase online. The information has the capability to persuade shoppers much more effectively than simple text and pictures. However, some products still only have a picture, or zero seconds of video coverage. All product sellers should strive to optimize the functions and benefits of the site, which in turn will enhance the site itself.

How can users be guided to easily upload their own goods? How can potential buyers most effectively communicate with sellers? What other categories be added to the search function?
