HOW TO MAKE PROMO VIDEOS FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Using Videobolt platform to create branded video content.

With an 80% rise in content consumption since the coronavirus pandemic, video watchtimes are expected to reach a 100-minute a day benchmark. But brands willing to invest in video should adapt their strategies to match the new customer and the so-called ‘new normal’.

If you own a business, then you know how important it is to stay on top of things. You constantly need to think about innovations, laws and regulations, administration, your team, etc. In hectic and uncertain times, such as these, we often neglect certain parts of business which might not seem to be vital for our product/service. Often, creating video content for social media appears to be one of them. However, businesses should reconsider their video communication strategy as 43% of consumers are unhappy with the COVID-19 messaging they receive from brands. Even though video has become a common form of communication, in terms of creating video content for small businesses, there still are reasonable constraints. Limited budget, time and video editing skills are what usually holds back the owners of small businesses from developing effective video marketing strategies.

Thanks to technology, what used to be seen as impossible, is now a piece of cake - anyone can make professional, branded videos in no time, without prior knowledge in video making and within a feasible budget. Especially in a time of pandemic, the approach to video making has altered. Instead of hiring a camera crew and professional lighting, brands have figured they can handle video marketing more independently which is why stock footage is in high demand as on-location shoots are put on hold. According to Hubspot, 88% of video marketers reported that video gives them a positive ROI. Therefore, if you are serious about your business (and you are), you should definitely consider video marketing as the most natural extension of your product/ service.

The aim of this article is to show exactly how you can create branded videos for your business, by yourself, with the help of videobolt.net.

Simply, by customizing these ready-made video templates with your brand’s colors, images, logos and text, you’ll have your video marketing sorted in no time! Here’s an example of our video templates, before and after the customization, done in minutes.

Brand your videos

In the story of brand building, being consistent is extremely important, especially when people first discover you. From the psychological point of view, brand consistency is about trust - making someone feel like they know you, to be aware of, recognize and remember you. In order to do so, your appearance should be loyal to your brand image. That’s why it is important to brand your videos, for example by starting them with branded intros (and to finish off with branded outros). Start importing your logos to these video templates and witness the power of animation. Animated explainer videos are a powerful tool for explaining the complex idea of your brand and transforming it into an engaging, memorable experience that’s easily digestible.
