Do you use videos as part of your content marketing strategy? Videos can be used in a variety of ways including showcasing your products and services, providing valuable information to your audience, or giving them a behind-the-scenes look at your company. Consider these options when thinking about adding video to your digital marketing plan.
1. Product Demonstrations
If you sell specific products, a demo video is an effective way to promote your merchandise. Create a video using the ideas below and then add them to your social media schedule. You can also feature these videos as part of your blogging strategy.
- Spotlight a specific product or collection each week.
- Review how the product can be useful for your customers.
- Introduce a new product once a month and offer a limited-time discount.
2. Educational Clips
For service-based business owners, educational videos are a fantastic way to promote your services. Create a short video sharing a common problem your clients have along with an effective solution. These videos can also be added to your social media schedule and your blog post series.
- Social media managers can share a new development in social media marketing.
- Business coaches can explain how to create a step-by-step business plan.
- Virtual assistants can create a video sharing their work-from-home schedule.
3. Expert Interviews
Any type of business can take advantage of interviewing experts in their specific industry. Use a streaming service like Zoom to record the interview. Plan the interview out first with your guest. Allow them to promote their product or service during the interview as well. It’s a win-win experience for both of you!
- Choose the interview questions beforehand and send them to your guest.
- Be specific with them on how they are allowed to promote their business.
- At the end of the video, share a special viewer-only discount for both or either of your products/services.
