This is a great idea. Much needing this. I wonder if there's service that would let you find video-shooters in locations where your customers live. If you're across the globe, it'd be hard to travel to their office for a testimonial. Finding somebody locally to do this for you is the way to go. Any ideas?

Thanks Cristian, founder here, I think today people mostly go to craigslist or get referrals from friends, to find videographers. It's not a great experience and presents some of the same problems/risks we are trying to solve for post-production (ie: not knowing what's a fair price, not knowing what all the options are, not knowing if the fit will be good, not to mention the relative hassle of finding, communicating & paying the artist). But we get asked the question often, and I think you are absolutely right, we need a better solution to find/hire videographers.

You can use smartshoot.com for that. (I own zero stock in that Company)
