Video Marketing is a Savvy Decision
Why You Need to Use Video Marketing across ALL Marketing CampaignsContent is not just text anymore. Video, whether you create it or use someone else's, is Content. Video marketing can be used in so many different ways. Video can be distributed through video upload sites, like YouTube, and email delivery systems such as Talk Fusion or Jive Systems. It is a perfect partner with your web site marketing strategy.
Why Video?It is the #1 way to connect with customers; to convert prospects to customers and to achieve customer loyalty. What makes video so much more powerful than any other medium, is that you become "real" to your prospect or customer. Through images and sound you can improve the user's experience. There is a big difference between reading about drinking cafe au lait at a Parisian Brasserie versus showing a video of you there with all the sights and sounds of Paris. Video gives you the opportunity to truly engage your customer and to develop a rapport and relationship with them in a way that text can not do. Video on your home page introducing your company and products to customers, or a pre-launch pitch, is invaluable as a web site marketing strategy. Additionally, if your information is educational, many users learn faster through visual content rather than reading. Yes, yes...a moving picture is worth a thousand static words!The success of your business, whether online or offline, is dependent upon one thing; the RELATIONSHIP you are able to build over time with your customer. Video marketing is the best media to enable you to build relationships. Building relationships allows you to build your customer list. Your customer list is gold. Of course, the good news is, that today you can even create a video and have it be turned into a podcast and PDF transcript to put through other distribution channels. Multi-media content and distribution is now possible with a single source file!! What better way to execute your internet marketing strategies.
But, video is more than a relationship builder:1. It can increase traffic to your website as it is one of the fastest methods to "go viral"2. It is an awesome way to create demand for your product or service i.e."pre-sell"3. It can be leveraged into multiple revenue streams to you through other people's products Video marketing is now an effective and long term component of your internet marketing strategies.
