3 Tips for Making Great Marketing Videos

Unless you’ve been living on a deserted island for the past few years, you’ve seen the increase in videos to market products. Videos are a must-have for small businesses. It will give you an edge over your competition and raise your website in searches, too.

How do you make videos that “speak” to your prospective customers? Your prospective customers are looking for information that speaks to their individual needs, wants or problems. Don’t start you video out talking about your business, your products and yourself. Remember, it’s all about your customer!
Here are three tips that will help you make great marketing videos:

Focus on your prospect’s #1 problem
You have to show prospects that you “get it.” If you have a customer that experienced the problem, have them share their story. People love personal experience stories about their problem. 

Your video needs to make prospects relive their pain. If you don’t, they will simply put off resolving it, and you want their business now.
Use the Power of “What If”…

You’ve seen it used in successful infomercials…”What if you could lose weight in a short time with little effort?” Yes, these two small words generate billions of dollars to those companies smart enough to use them. Make a list of your product or service benefits and choose the top three you feel will resonate with your prospects. Add the “what ifs” to your offerings.
Introduce Your Product or Service

Demonstrate how your product or service works. The more dramatic the demonstration, the more impact it has on your viewer.
If your product or service doesn’t lend itself to demonstration, use testimonials from your satisfied customers. Have the customers that told their painful story talk about how your product or service solved their problem.
