The trick is in having something people want to buy. Not something you want to sell. Think about that.

The Internet is like a mail order catalogue of old, just 100,000s more pages. Pressure selling won't work, driving traffic won't work on it's own, great product won't work. Selecting these videos, I clicked back from a few because the intro after 5 seconds had me turned off, like the OP one.

We're in a market that has to hook the buyer in seconds. A high click count, doesn't mean they stayed.
