Of all the marketing techniques how much do you think it is crucial to have a video to promote your brand? Studies have shown that 93% of teachers believe that the use of educational videos improves the teaching-learning experience. Also, it has been proven that video clips allow better processing and memory recall. Then why shouldn’t these positives be used for better marketing?
Do you know why brands and even the audience prefer Video Content more than anything else?
To look at an image and understand the meaning behind it is open to interpretations. To write something and let your readers read is an exhaustive process. But compiling images and including texts to generate a video ad suffices the purpose. Hence, firms have a better way of presenting their message and promoting their brand by giving out a clear message with the help of video.
This sort of advertisement comes in with its own challenges. A video ad needs to be concise and contextually apt to convey the meaning. Especially in the generation where the attention span has reduced to 15 seconds (thanks to Tiktok and Instagram reels). Now it makes essential for brands to catch the attention of their customers and leave an impact on them as soon as they get a chance.
How COVID affected the overall video marketing trends?
Covid has led to ample changes in this world, how could it leave the advertisement section untouched? A report says 80% of the audience have engaged more with the digital content during the pandemic. By the end of the year, it was found that an average person spent 100 minutes of their time on videos on a daily basis. How could brands not use this opportunity to promote themselves in the market?
Also, it has been predicted that by 2022, 82% of the content will be shared by videos. How could brands not focus on promoting themselves by this method?

How medium and local brands can leverage Video Advertising to scale their business?
After all the reasons stated above, why would a brand that wants to grow not use video content as a means of advertisement? Obviously, a brand should focus more on creating effective video content that reaches its audience and gets the desired results. Research shows that a consumer takes less than 2 seconds to swipe next to an ad if they see it somewhere. It means that this goldfish is hard to chase.
But by aligning to some strategies, this could be done to achieve the results required.
A brand should take care of the following while preparing a video content :
– Promote your video content on all the social networking sites i.e., Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, etc.
– Use music in the background to add a better soothing experience for your viewer
– Videos with captions give better outcomes. Sometimes one is not carrying earphones and cannot listen to the audio on speaker too. Captions save the day!
– Have a blast opening of the video to catch the attention in the initial seconds and add a surprise element to leave your audience awestruck.
– Reshares of the video will always be helpful to crack social media algorithm and get going
