“We’re operating in a world where one good video can lead to a massive social following.” said Mike Henry.
Social Media now-a-days has shifted from text to video. A good video builds rapport and gets traffic for your website.
After all, who would not prefer an interesting video presentation over a boring long passage?
You can surely provide information through numerous interesting ways but a video gives your customers the “Real Essence”. It helps them connect on a much deeper level.
If you think text-based content is enough!
Think Again!!
Text-based information and content is quiet one- dimensional whereas through videos one can connect to the customers through expressions, eyes, smiles and most importantly through your body- language and guess what?? That’s the secret.
Body language does wonders, it communicates more information than you could ever pen down.
Video Marketing sends a message of you being approachable, vulnerable and above all people feel they can connect to you because of the positivity it brings.
Now the question comes how to generate user engagement? What must be done to increase brand visibility?
Well..Well..Well
we have the answer..
Some of the popular video formats that serve your purpose well are:
- Video testimonials.
- Product demos.
- ‘About us’ videos.
- Instructional videos.
- Tutorial Videos.
- Interviews.
- Animated videos.
- Creative videos with elements of humor.
- Celebrities endorsing the brand.
Simply talking is not enough is what we believe in. So, here are some facts and reasons to prove why your business needs Video Marketing:
1) Nothing else grabs attention than a perfectly made video –
Because nothing else is cooler than an idea to play videos that engage potential customers and make your website look clean.
2) Sharing videos is not a tough deal, not any more –
Social Media is all about some clicks here and there. The more the clicks, the more will be the number of shares. Thus, breaking the confinement of your videos to your own websites.

Because they are easily shareable, people are more likely to be attracted towards videos than content.

Texts might confuse people, Videos don’t.
5) Increase your rank by increasing the web traffic
Stale websites are a big no-no whereas explainer videos are people’s choice and websites with videos rank higher in search engine rankings and get immediate attention from the audience.
If your video is interesting, it automatically goes “viral” and gets large number of viewers within no time. From Apple to Dove to Old spice, all major brands have used Video Marketing as a tool to connect with their customers.
