Best Practices for Video Content Marketing: Our Tips

Alright, Orlando brands and businesses, listen up! Today, attention spans are shorter than a goldfish’s, so grabbing and holding your audience’s attention is no small feat. Video marketing is the solution, but how do you make sure you’re doing it the right way? Simply hitting “record” isn’t enough—to truly harness the power of video and make your Orlando brand shine, you need a strategy that’s as sharp as your cinematography. So, get ready to discover the secrets for creating quality video content that not only captivates but also converts:

1. Know Your Audience (Really Know Them): Before you even brainstorm video ideas, you need to understand who you’re talking to. What are their interests, pain points, and dreams? What kind of videos do they already watch and enjoy? Tailor your content to resonate with your target audience, and you’ll hook them from the first frame.
2. Tell a Story, Not Just a Sales Pitch: Nobody wants to be bombarded with commercials. Instead, use video to tell stories that connect with your audience on an emotional level. Showcase your brand’s personality, highlight customer success stories, or give a behind-the-scenes glimpse of your company culture. When you make your videos about more than just your products or services, you’ll create a lasting impression.
3. Keep It Short and Sweet (But Not Too Sweet): We get it, you’ve got a lot to say about your awesome Orlando brand. But remember, attention spans are precious. Keep your videos concise and focused on a single message. Aim for a length that’s appropriate for the platform you’re using—shorter for social media, longer for in-depth explainers.
4. Optimize for Mobile (Because Everyone’s Glued to Their Phones): Let’s face it, most people will be watching your videos on their smartphones. So, make sure your videos are optimized for mobile viewing. Use vertical formats, keep text large and readable, and ensure your videos load quickly even on slower connections.
5. SEO Isn’t Just for Websites: Want your videos to get found? Optimize them for search engines! Use relevant keywords in your titles, descriptions, and tags. It all helps your videos rank higher in search results, bringing in organic traffic and expanding your reach.
6. Call to Action (Don’t Leave Them Hanging!): What do you want viewers to do after watching your video? Visit your website? Sign up for your newsletter? Make a purchase? Don’t leave it to chance. Include a clear call to action at the end of your videos to guide your audience toward the next step.
7. Track Your Metrics: Don’t just post your videos and hope for the best. Track your metrics to see how they’re performing. Are people watching them all the way through? Are they clicking on your call to action? This data will help you refine your strategy and create even more effective videos in the future.
