Talk About Making Great Video Content

Video Marketing is powerful, but to maximize its potential… Brands must build creative, sharp and digital content for attracting their target audience. Consider the following best practices for:

Understand your audience: Slash down the type of video you produce to fit perfectly into what your target loves. For example, if you are targetting consumers in the manufacturing industry then talk about the technical details of your product.

Tip: People relate to stories, not products. Regardless what makes a video go viral, it must have a clear narrative that grabs people’s attention and holds them on the edge of their seat.

➙ Short and Energizing: In addition to long-form content, create short videos that quickly get your point across. For videos on social media (like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter), aim for 30 seconds to around 2 minutes.

• Mobile first: Over three-quarters of video views around the world are on mobile. As always, make sure you create video content that is mobile-optimized with crisp text so it can be easily read by those watching without sound.

5. How to measure the results of a video

Once a brand has completed its video campaign, whether or not it accomplished what they were aiming for is crucial. A Video View Count, Engagement Rate and Conversion rate are various KPIs that give information on how good a video is performing. Higher view counts on a product demonstration video, for example, may suggest viewers are interested in the specific offering being demoed.

In marketing for manufacturers, these engagement metrics are most useful in gauging to what extent our technical explanations have been effective at helping the audience understand their products. By reviewing the amount of time viewers watch and when they abandon, creators can use that data to improve their presentation techniques so less people drop off early on.

Let’s consider a practical example of how video marketing can benefit a specific product: car covers. While a product such as this car cover may seem mundane on the surface, video is able to accomplish what otherwise would take reams of paper or boring explainer copy.

Using a well-produced video gives your audience an insight into how tough and practical car covers are in various weather, which would be difficult to portray through still images or text only. This way, viewers can get to see how easily the cover is put on and off, what it would be like against wind or snow and most importantly if they liked how it looks in their car. This simple fact can mean the world when it comes to selling a potential buyer on transitioning from prospect to customer.

Video featuring car covers could include:

• A simple installation and removal demo

Weather Protection (rain, snow or sun),

• The stories and experiences of happy customers using your product in their daily lives

Coming Soon: The Future of Video Marketing

The video marketing landscape also looks different as technology continues to advance. You see tech like virtual (VR), augmented reality(AR) and 360-degree videos that are already creating a whole new level of possibility in the video content space.

These types of innovations give brands the opportunity reach additional audiences through more interactive experiences rather than relying on traditional video formats. Like a manufacturer walking potential customers through their factory in virtual space, or simply giving them views of the inside to see how it all works on an augmented basis.

Personalization will also be a big thing in video marketing along with some of the newer technologies. As brands get to know their consumers even better, they can start building video content that is tailored towards the needs and desires of each consumer.
