Do you have videos?
Videos tell a story. Videos share a message. Videos are the marketing method of the future. According to a quote by Borrell & Associates, “Online video spending is forecasted to account for more than 1/3rd of all online advertising in 5 years.” Read that again. That is huge!
Why you need videos:
Online videos, when marketed properly, increase your online brand awareness, drive targeted website traffic to your best converting landing pages, and statistically result in dramatic increases in conversions.
Check out these stats:
Videos increase conversions by:
- 55% more visitors to your website
- 30% more direct visitors to your physical store
- 24% more purchases/phone calls
40% of consumers watch online videos one or more times a week – that’s over 70% monthly!
How to market your business with videos:
If you don’t already have videos, consider your strategy. Are you looking to spread a compelling message about your business that you want to last for years to come? Or, are you looking for a cheap, quick fix?
If your answer is a solid branding campaign that offers a specific message that you want to share – you need to first invest into professional video production. Just like marketing a website, if you don’t already have a website that converts – you are wasting your marketing dollars by driving traffic to it. If you want to use videos to market your brand and give the viewer a clear picture about what you want, you have to create quality videos that provide a clear message and start and end with branding and a call to action.
If you are looking for a cheap fix, you’ll have to be prepared for low quality, generic or “less professional”. Or, there are companies that will create something for you that is affordable, but still does the trick. You just have to make sure the content matches your message, incorporates a call to action, and, ideally, is something you can use on your website as well as syndicate across the web.
Now that you have a branded video with a clear message and call to action – it’s time to market your investment. Marketing your videos online can range from strategically optimizing your YouTube Video Channel to boosting your videos with links and syndicating them online. We have Custom Video Packages – including:

You need multiple ways to communicate your message(s) to your online audience. If people are watching more video then they are reading content – you better jump on board. Videos can relay a message within 1-2 minutes. Look at your analytics. How long are your website visitors staying on your website?
