Testimonials

Testimonials are a great way to share your company’s success stories with prospective clients. Satisfied customers are often very willing to give testimonials, and requesting them in the form of videos is not uncommon.

Many people know how to create a simple video and webcams are almost always built-in to newer computers. So, next time someone praises your organization, ask them for a 30 second video to add to your site!

Replace written content

With all of the text that you find on a standard website, it is easy to get lost in the content. Mixing the text with some video can deliver the same message in a way that is new and refreshing to visitors.

Instead of having an average “About us” page, try using a video to describe your business. It can make people feel more connected with your company and gives them a break from text overload.

Educate!

How to” and demo videos are great ways to educate your clients and prospective clients about your business. Although you may not actually sell products that you can demo, there are still plenty of ways to educate clients about something relating to your business.
