Don’t Let Your Video Be A Victim of The Boring Factor!
One of the most important things to consider when making a video is what to include in the content. Getting original content for your online videos is not always easy but with a little research and a unique approach you can get great content that turns into great videos. The first place to look is to your current viewers. Do you have a subscribers list? If so ask them a few questions or send out a survey. People love to be asked what they want.
If you don’t have a list, no worries, forums are a resourceful way for finding questions that users are asking. Experienced video producers already know what their viewers are asking for and it is the viewers that are providing the material. Listen to your people! Turn their questions into useful content. If your viewer is saying “so what” then you have a problem, it must be relevant and useful.
Smart marketers don’t give away the farm but they do give quite a bit of useful and valuable information. It’s the only way to gain the trust and respect of your viewers. Sharing your knowledge is a great way to build confidence in your viewers and they will be more willing to stick around to see what you have next.
Use some testimonials as content, conduct an interview with a respected member in the field. Here’s a good idea: write a book or short story and create a video on the first 20 pages! This is a great way to draw people in and leave them wanting more.
We are all looking for the same things; how to save time, save money and save some effort or a combination of all three. If you can demonstrate in your video how this can be done; using real examples, real people, and real pets, you will have them hooked! Use anything that gets the point across to your viewers without being b-o-r-i-n-g. No one wants to waste their time and “Dull” is the death of an online video.
People buy promises and ideas so it is important that you trust in this but be real because a fraud will always be exposed. What is your promise?
How will you use online video to deliver this promise? Create a great headline that will have an impact and keep the viewers attention, keep your
name in the forefront.
Have you ever seen an awesome commercial but could not really remember what the product was? In the end, how great was that commercial if the viewer can’t remember what it was about. The entire online world is now officially our stage with the rise of YouTube popularity and more people viewing videos everyday. So put your thinking cap on and be creative. Even silly and over-the-top ideas can prove to be profitable.
Watch what others are doing in their videos to generate ideas of your own. But be as unique as you can be and your online viewing audience will skyrocket.
Keep in mind that online video is officially here to stay!
