Marketing in 2010 has changed dramatically. Most business owners by now realize consumers search for everything online. Does your website excite, invite and motivate your visitors?
Today it’s not enough just to have a website. It’s all about first impressions. You would be better having no website than project a poor image of your company.
Imagine personally greeting every visitor 24/7/365, now that’s customer service! How about a video depicting the highlights of your product or service? Potential customers will no longer have to imagine what you offer but will get a true visual experience of your product or service.
It’s easy and affordable to have the power of video working for you. Video can enhance SEO, drive sales, engage your visitors and showcase your business. With website videos you can present exactly what you wish to convey to your audience without the constraints of time and broadcast technicalities
Interested? There’s more – with a video business card you can send your personal message in your e-mail. 
Your “About Us” will come alive when your personnel introduce themselves and explain how they will benefit the visitor. How about a tour or training? Video takes you there and engages viewers in a way that text simply cannot.
Today – video means business.

GREEN SCREEN TECHNOLOGY
- Green screen allows the background (green screen) to be removed or made transparent and add b-roll to support the message (video).
- There is nothing special that the individual has to do to prepare for a green screen video, except NOT to wear anything green or shades of green. It will become transparent and the background will show through.
- Green screen production also allows products or services to be displayed in the foreground (with voice over) or in the background.

PRACTICING YOUR DIALOGUE
- After creating your dialogue put it away and review it later. Does it get the right message across?
- Practice reading it out loud and time it for approximately 1 minute.
- For DIY, if you don’t have a teleprompter, print the dialogue in large text that you can read from a distance.
- The best way to do a video (dialogue) is to be yourself, practice it until you feel comfortable, but don’t agonize over it. Be yourself! See yourself in front of your customer.

PREPARING YOUR DIALOGUE
- The viewer is looking for information. They want to know how you can help them.
- Be sure your message is clear and matches your search criteria or the visitor will click away.
- The video should not be about you, but how your product or service can benefit them.
- A video about “you” can be used in the “About” on your website. This way the customer will meet you personally, this works much better than text.

KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE
- Every visitor to your website has either come there by accident (search) or on purpose (entered your domain name). You have this opportunity to capture their attention, no matter how they arrived there.
- When the visitor arrives at your website, your video needs to grab their attention – thought provoking, (ie. “tell me more ” or “I didn’t know that” or “what’s this about”)
- If the viewer is senses a sales pitch they will generally click away, the same as they would hit the mute on TV.

Your video business card is your opportunity to personally present your 30 second “elevator speech.” When placed in your e-mail it looks like a business card with the your photo and logo and invites the reader to listen to your welcome message. It offers you the opportunity to personally greet your clients.

Add video to your e-mail
As you know, you only have 3 seconds to make that great first impression, in person, on your website, or in social media. People remember 20% of what they hear, 30% of what they see but 70% of what they see and hear!
If a picture is worth a 1,000 words – imagine a video.
Makes that important great first impression
Personally greet your clients and future clients
Show and tell how your product or service will benefit your clients
Reflect your personal brand
Present your elevator speech
Attract more business

“Video is the most powerful way to tell a story, capture the imagination, argue a point, entertain and inform your target audiences –made up of individuals who prefer, hands down, to “watch” and “hear” your message and offerings, than to read it. In putting a voice and a face to your company’s name and brand, you leverage the repurposable impact of engaging, storytelling video content to retain current customers, gain new clients, and attract larger corporate partners and sponsors.” …if I may quote myself!
In interviewing Byron Reese, CEO of Demand Media at SXSW, he laughed in saying someday he hopes we finally “get-it-together” and acknowledge the true power of video, so we can tell our grandkids that the internet was once this THING that was just full of words and more words! LOVE THAT!
WHY VIDEO?
It’s a product that transforms YOUR presence from average to extraordinary, adding a cosmopolitan layer to YOUR reputation. That enhances current marketing and branding efforts, increase site traffic, lead generation and online visibility and credibility via cutting-edge video communication tools that powerfully deliver the following:
1.. An authentic introduction to the people that comprise YOUR COMPANY. Breathing life into all aspects of the entity from the outside-in.
2.. A showcase of YOUR presence in YOUR industry through engaging messaging, spotlighted current facts and opinions, entertaining footage and conversation.
3.. Spotlighted pieces of YOU, both timely and times, regarding YOUR history and future, people, products and services, news/press, customers/partners, etc
4.. Timely and timeless marketing messages, both repurposable in use and malleable in
audience presentation.
WHY VIDEO with a SPOKESPERSON?!
YOU harness the power of a professional talent whose personality and presence adds an entirely new dimension to YOUR image and brand; statistically engages a broader array of audiences, partners, sponsors, and media.
“Video provides a rich medium designed to drive awareness and engagement, to entertain, and to deliver advertising impressions in a format more targeted, focused and familiar to customers. ” – Web Analytics Demystified.com
