Tips That Will Improve Your Video Marketing Skills

By Downes Stephen


From online conglomerates to mom and pop stores, there are no limits to what video marketing can do for a business. Being able to look directly at your customers and clients and present yourself as an honest and valuable business is priceless! The following article will introduce you to the many benefits of video marketing.

Place your video content on YouTube and link it back to your website. This can help your video be seen by a wide audience and potentially get shared and moved to the front page. The kind of exposure that YouTube provides, partly because it is owned by Google, is huge.

Within the video, add a screenshot depicting your website. This will help viewers navigate your site. Screenshots are also valuable in instructional videos. Take a screenshot of your screen and use a quality video editing program to include this image in your video.

Why not take a video while at a trade show? Many experts visit trade shows and would love to expand their own customer base, and getting their name on your website is a great way to do that. Make sure to write down their information so you can spell their name right and link back to their site when you post the video - they'll appreciate that.

If you are not really an expert on a topic, do not try to pretend. The best way to get around that is by interviewing people on video that are experts in your niche. A trade show or seminar is a great place to meet people that won't mind doing a video.

To supercharge your video marketing efforts consider running a video marketing campaign. With a video marketing campaign, you will offer daily videos that will be shared on your website as well as on video sites such as YouTube. Do not forget to share your videos with your customers using email and social media.

Always watch your videos before you publish them. This may sound like a simple and obvious statement, but it is necessary. Watch your videos and make sure there are not any mistakes. Make sure you sound good and the quality is good. The videos are a reflection of your company, so if they look bad, so does your business.

Your audience wants you to be honest. If you're making a video, do it truthfully. If you are authentic in your videos, people will probably enjoy them and come back often for more.

When using videos to market your business, be sure to add a link to your website. If someone views your video and is interested in your company, more information will be just one click away. These links can be added either in the video description, or in a hovering caption added to your video. However, you do it, make sure that the link is easily visible and always kept up to date.

Don't forget the music! Using music can help you enhance the mood, give a sense of suspense or even accentuate comedy bits. If you're not good with music choices, ask friends and family to help you out. Don't play the music too loud and drown out the speaker, of course.

Don't let being camera shy keep you from using video marketing to promote your business. Sponsor a video contest in which those who make the best videos receive prizes. For the prize, tell them that the best video can be used as an ad for an upcoming project.

You should now realize that video marketing need not be challenging. All you have to do is take whatever tips you read above and work on adding them to your marketing campaign. The Internet is filled with people who enjoy watching videos. Use that market!
