Here are the numbers.

 * Amount of Time Involved**

I spent about six hours on this campaign, with about 2-3 hours for the video. The time invested in getting organized enabled me to easily implement the campaign in small chunks. While the video creation and production took half of the time required to implement the campaign, there is no object measure to estimate the return. In the Revver platform, however, we earned approximately $3.77 in advertising click thrus.
