Our marketing team agreed that we needed more videos on our website at our Q3 planning session in
After reading the blog “Why you need to focus on Video Marketing in 2017” – I knew we had made the right strategic decision. So, I thought I would share 3 different ways we were able to get excellent videos.
Who better than your clients to talk about what you do? They are using the product or service and, hopefully, have some nice things to say about you. If they don’t, you may need to focus on your product or service first, but let’s assume you have a bunch of happy customers.
Here are some benefits we were not expecting:
How did we do it? Well, we were lucky in that we had a captive audience at our Breakthrough Conference. So, I just asked them. Now, you need to prepare them, have a nice place to capture their story and help with some questions you may want them to answer. But – that was it. Oh yeah – and be sure to say thanks. After all, they are taking time out of their busy life to do something nice for you.
Take a look at one of the videos we created.
Telling your story about how you help clients can be fun. We did a sports video to explain the journey of success we help you achieve. It was such a hit, we played it at our conference the day after filming.
How did we do it?
We loved working with the team at Lastoria Productions, who did a great job editing and producing the video.
Check it out:
We call this our explainer video. It helped answer the question - what do you do? Pages of text and pictures on your website are great, but many people want to watch a quick video. This is the big-picture, high-level answer. Think of someone who just arrived on your website. What do you want them to know?
Be sure to tell the whole story.
Enjoy our top level video. We were extremely happy with our video production team from SmarkLabs.
So, make this the quarter you go out and create some amazing videos.
Which one did you like the most? Let me know.
