Join the growing community of video professionals across the country who are already enjoying the many benefits of AVP membership!

What sets AVP apart from other member organizations?

Our History & Mission
The Association of Video Professionals (AVP) was founded as a Delaware Limited Liability Company in 2006 by a group of video studio owners who saw the need to help video companies grow their business. AVP was built from the ground up by our members led by the Board of Directors, who have solid video and corporate startup experience. There are many clubs and associations out there for video professionals but few that care and strive to grow your business like AVP. We exist not only to help in business techniques and technical training but to partner with our members and give them the tools they need to grow successful and striving businesses.

Our online community
AVP maintains an exclusive members only forum where users can ask questions, get answers, and share ideas. This active forum is advertisement and spam free! Topics discussed range from hardware and software technical support, to marketing and sales, to resources and suppliers, and many many more. All topics are well organized and easily searchable for later reference.

Our website presence
AVP has invested (and continues to invest) a significant amount of money in the development and ongoing Search Engine Optimization of our website. The primary goal of this site is to drive leads to our members and listers. As an AVP member, your listing is placed at the top level in your area above all listing levels (Gold, Silver, and Bronze). This one benefit alone could more than pay for your membership!

Weekly Conference calls
Each week we conduct an informative, live, member only conference call. These calls cover topics critical to your video business such as trends in the industry, successful marketing strategies, how to increase your profit margins, tools of the trade, and others topics designed specifically to help you run a more efficient and profitable business. The calls include a mix of group moderated discussions and industry expert guest speakers. All calls are recorded and archived so if you are not able to attend live, you can listen online at a time more convenient for you.

Our Training
You won't want to miss any of AVP's hands-on training events and conferences. Each conference is a fantastic opportunity to network face to face with other video business owners and receive world class training at the same time. Class offerings are selected based on member input and vary by conference. AVP members enjoy a SIGNIFICANT discount on the training and the right to use the ‘AVP Trained’ logo on their website and other marketing materials.
