Videos again!Here we are again addressing what seems to be the most alluring of all aspects of a business.Visual content and human memory.I love how the demographic has shown customer pattern and reactions to seeing a product and heading straight to YouTube where they had seen a similar brand.Videos attract customers,yes this is true.However, there is a technique or should I say method of making videos that will convince customers that your brand is the best.
Of course quality of the videos is a top factor,but let us also look at the truth factor.Business owners should try to create videos that show the true picture of the products and their business in general.This will inspire the customer and also look believable.The shock comes when a customer is really interested in your product and goes out of his way to look for it in stores and discovers that it was just an exaggeration.This is one of the fastest ways for your business to collapse.They give you poor ratings online and your marketing strategy fails miserably.I would encourage business owners to be true to themselves and to their businesses.
Good tips especially to bloggers.
