The Value of Online Videos in Marketing
Another concept that is often linked with online video is marketing. This is because video can be an extremely effective sales-tool. It can quickly inform a potential customer about all the benefits your product provides. If it is used skillfully, then there is that audience engagement benefit mentioned above. A good example would be a real estate company using a professionally made video to show a home to potential buyers. There have been many instances of online video being used successfully to sell homes. People prefer to see more of what is being sold than just flat photographs. Another example is that of the well-known, extremely successful Old Spice and Sony Bravia commercials. Hook your audience with humor and striking, memorable visuals and they will keep coming back for more. Therefore it is an essential tool for marketing your company in that a viral video can get a lot of interest in your product quickly, but there is more to it than just going viral. Using online video can bring a lot more to your business than just sales.
Want to show your workers or customers how to do something? Video can be used to give instruction. Want to introduce yourself to your clients? A well-made video can be used to break the ice. From answering questions to telling a story, no medium says a much with as little effort and expense.
