But boosting the content of your online platforms should not only be focused on blogs and articles, especially if you are also pushing for social media campaigns. <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.oom.com.sg\/gifs-vs-photos-enhance-your-content-marketing-with-moving-pictures\/\"><u>We have discussed before<\/u><\/a>\u00a0that images and videos are effective tools to communicate with the audience, and it still hasn\u2019t change until especially videos.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>How many times have you browsed through social media feeds and found yourself glued to a well-crafted video?

But how? How can you create a video content that will not only be beneficial\u00a0in marketing your business but will also entice\u00a0your audience to actually watch and share it to their own followers? How can you make a marketing video that will rock the digital world when the competition is too tight and the Internet is bombarded with tons of video materials in a day? And most importantly, how can you create a video content that will not take too much of your time and resources?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We compiled some techniques and tips in creating video contents. These ideas should help you craft the material that will encourage your audience to get to know more about your products, your services, and your company.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are the top 5 things to consider when creating your video contents:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"1\">Choose A Sensible Story<\/h2>\n<p>This is very important. If you want your audience to actually watch the videos that you will post, make sure that you are telling a story. Well, it does not necessarily need to be the ones with introduction, conflict, climax, and resolution. Choosing a sensible story means having a definite topic on what you want to say. Do not just throw images of your products in the video and play it in loop. Check out how Nike Women provides crafts a human interest story<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This instinctively human account provides viewers with an opportunity to bond with the brand.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Nike Women: Better For It<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"Nike Women - Better For It - Inner Thoughts\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WF_HqZrrx0c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Aside from the cliche marketing videos of just the products, you should also refrain from using client testimonials in the videos. People will not watch that. Try to be creative in conceptualising the plot of your video. What\u2019s important is that the viewers will have something to look forward to while watching. Be a storyteller to keep the video more interesting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2\">Show Your Brand Identity<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s also important to keep within your brand\u2019s personality when creating videos. What does it mean? Simply put, it has to be parallel with your other marketing materials. If you are a hip company that is targeting young professionals, the content of your video &#8211; from the cast, to the sound, up to the color choices &#8211; everything has to be aligned with your brand\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Dove: Choose Beautiful<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/7DdM-4siaQw<\/p>\n<p>By focusing less on their product and on their mission, Dove has successfully crafted an emotional viral video that kept them on top. In creating videos like this, you should also consider your target market. You have to make sure that your storyline and composition is something that they can relate with. It\u2019s the personality and identity of the brand that makes it what it is, so never let go of it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"3\">Stick With The Target Audience<\/h2>\n<p>As a brand or a company, you may have already <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.oom.com.sg\/why-studying-your-target-market-can-help-build-your-brand\/\"><u>identified your target market<\/u><\/a>. Now, use that to your advantage when making your videos. Always consider the preferences and behavior of your target audience. You cannot just play with emotions if it doesn\u2019t go with your brand proposition. So, for example, if you are a nursery school trying to create a marketing content to promote your school and you want to speak to mothers. You have to focus on the emotional attachment of a mother to her kids; being compassionate on your videos can help in persuading your target market.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Jeni&#8217;s Splendid Ice Creams: Build Your Own Ice Cream Sandwich<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"Build Your Own Ice Cream Sandwich\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9G_AnmzZNbM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Basically, your content should be clearly speaking to whoever you want to speak with. It should carry a single message and using the proper emotions that your target market would easily understand. The video above is clearly speaking to ice cream lovers, right?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"4\">No One Watches A Boring Video<\/h2>\n<p>Make your shots as exciting as possible. Imagine a user scrolling online and he happened to see your video accidentally. Now, the goal is to make them watch the video until it\u2019s finished and convince them to avail your services during the process. And, believe it or not, you only have 5 seconds to do that. If in the first 5 seconds, the user won\u2019t see something exciting on their screens, they will skip or scroll further down. If that happens, the opportunity is gone.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Google Android: Friends Furever<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"Android - Friends Furever (2015)\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xbHszDDdle8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>So, you have to always create engaging videos that will make the users watch passed the 5 seconds mark.

Introduce A Purpose<\/h2>\n<p>Regardless of how engaging or well-crafted your video is, if it\u2019s too focused on selling, it will not go anywhere. Customers are smarter now; they go beyond consuming data. With the wide range of options available online, consumers now have the power to choose more than what they are offered. So, to perfectly capture their attention, you should go beyond selling.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Canadian Tire: Wheels<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"Canadian Tire \u201cWheels\u201d :60\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pFuwUiHo-WI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Adding some value on your content is really helpful.
