How to Develop an Effective Logo
The days of companies simply using text on their website is long past. We can now see links to Facebook and Twitter pages, blogs, RSS feeds, podcasts – you name it! However, we are also seeing more and more videos embedded into websites or links to YouTube channels – that is video marketing right there. I hear you asking, “How can video marketing promote my company or product to attract customers?”
Here’s how:
- It is a great way to solidify your online presence – something which is all too important in this age of technology. Current and potential customers can access your video/s anywhere and anytime! Whether a customer is in store or shopping online at home, no matter if it is 10am or 10pm, they can find a video about your company or product. Most importantly YouTube is the second most used search engine. Something to keep in mind!
- Similar to marketing via podcasting, some of your customers will naturally prefer to see and listen rather than read about a product – either they learn better this way or simply don’t have the time to sit down and read. Video marketing will grant you access to this group of current and potential customers.
- Video can be used to explain the features of a complicated/technical product or service. Packaging or written user guides can only convey so much information, so having a video explanation online can help a customer!
Video marketing is an engaging and fun way to explain your company and its products. It can be easily placed on your website and shared across your social media platforms for maximum exposure. If you have an Instagram account you will easily be able to make short 10 second videos to share. Or set up a professional camera and make longer videos – the possibilities are endless! And, saving the best for last, video marketing is free (unless of course you choose to employ a production house)! Remember your audience, what they want to know and what you want them to know. Keep it short as the consumer’s attention span is short! Lights, Camera, Action!
