Looking For Tips On Video Marketing? Check Out These Ideas!

By Viviana Venskoske


No matter what business you are in, it helps to be able to have direct contact with your customers. Video marketing is an excellent way to get the word out about your business, and speak one-on-one with potential customers. This article will provide you with some very useful tips on how to begin with video marketing.

When you are using video marketing it is important to keep your content interesting. If your video is dull then people will probably not watch the entire thing or recommend it to their friends. Make your message clear and engaging to your audience. Imagine you are watching your own video as a consumer.

Video marketing should not scare you. It really is possible to develop quality videos on your own. Demonstrate your product for the audience or simply talk to them about who you are and what you do.

Your videos will become popular if you share them efficiently. You should create an account on YouTube and on other similar sites your audience uses, feature your videos on your site or blog and share them on social networks. If possible, get other bloggers and people who are influential on social networks to share your videos.

Editing is essential to creating a quality video. While filming your video, do not hesitate to cut or do multiple takes. Upload your video files to your computer and use a quality editing software to put segments together, get rid of unnecessary scenes and perhaps add some captions or some music.

Don't think that customers will watch really long videos. You may need all of that time if you are showing your audience how a certain product works. When you're just chatting about your business, products or a sale, keep your video to less than five minutes.

To help garner even more views embed your video in your website. Most people when they think of video marketing think only of posting a video on YouTube. Instead, post it on your website and include a link on your Facebook wall and Tweet about your new video on Twitter.

Then collect data from the comments you receive and statistics to make your next video better. The data will allow you to make better videos by telling you what content to work on and helping you decide what equipment to use to increase quality.

Don't ignore the negative comments left on your videos. These can often be the more informational feedback you get and should be taken to heart. Obviously, don't take them personally, but consider how you could avoid such a comment with your next video by changing the content or how you produce it.

Looking directly into the camera and talking about your business can be a very beneficial means of communication for your bottom line. When people can see and hear what you are about directly, they are more apt to find out more. Get your camera rolling and begin your video marketing campaign today!
