Video Marketing Strategy: How Important a Factor It Is?

With India facing a digital revolution, video marketing has become an established and effective medium of promoting a brand. With the advent of both social media platforms and smartphones, videos can be shared instantaneously with millions of people at the same time and also be watched anytime and at any place.

As much as videos are a successful platform for developing awareness for a brand, a badly-made video failing to exhibit a product/service properly can seriously backfire, thus damaging the reputation of the company. This is why it is extremely important to plan and execute your video marketing strategy very carefully. The video content needs to coincide with the business objectives of the company.

Here are some of the steps to planning and conceptualizing the correct video strategy for the product/service.

Objective of the Video

The first step is to decide the goal of the video. What is the purpose that it is trying to accomplish? When a prospective consumer views the video, what should be the biggest takeaway? It is important to establish those parameters before conceptualizing the marketing video. During this stage, it is also vital to decide the kind of image the brand would be projecting.

Target Audience

After deciding the mission statement of the marketing video, it is significant to outline the potential target audience. Conduct elaborate research on the demographic the video is going to be marketed to. It is very important to understand your audience. Even a superior quality video can fail if it does not seem appealing and promising to your target audience.

Video Content

The tone of the video and the specific content that will be embedded in it will mark the next stage. Should the video be educational in nature? Should it be entertaining? Or should it have a mix of both? Based on the target audience this video will be targeted to, the approach for the content, tone and style will be decided.

Video Placement

After deciding on the content, it is imperative to discuss with the client where the video will be put up. To have maximum reach, a marketing video will be shared in as many places as possible such as the company website, landing page, marketing e-mails and so forth. Since we live in a digital era, sharing the video across all social media platforms can get a video a lot of likes, retweets and views, thus increasing the brand awareness of a product/service exponentially.

Back-up Plan

It is vital that a back-up plan is in place, in case the current strategy is not feasible. This will save a lot of time for all the parties involved.
