Financial advisers have begun to incorporate video into their marketing as a key client communication and business development tool. At InvestmentNews, we've more than doubled the number of videos that we produced in 2011 in an attempt to provide you with a more diverse, and original, set of content about your business. Advisers have responded and our total video views are up roughly 20% this year. With the year coming to a close, we wanted to know more about the types of videos that our readers/viewers consumed the most in 2011. It seems that as the markets underwent a significant correction and extreme period of volatility this summer, our video views spiked. Below are the ten most viewed videos of the year on InvestmentNews.com, which were responsible for nearly one-quarter of all the video views on our site in 2011:
