Marketing Yourself: Encouraging Social Shares

The number one rule of marketing and branding is to sell yourself. No one will buy what you have to offer until you give them a reason to buy it. You can market your product or service in an assortment of ways. From billboards to an advertisement, the possibilities are seemingly endless. The most successful method, however, has to be through the form of video content.

We’ve already discussed how videos are able to engage and compel users in ways that other forms of media cannot. So why wouldn’t you use this to sell your users something when you already have their attention? Most sites put advertisements or links to their social media outlets at the end of their video content. This gives the user the opportunity to learn more about your business or organization while also giving your business more likes and followers.

Living Like A Pig: Engaging Lazy Users

We all know that person. The type of person that sits on their butt all day and wants the world to come to them. This is what is called the lazy consumer. If they sit on their couch all day watching TV or playing video games, how do you expect them to read a ten-minute article about your business? You can’t because they never would. Do you know what they would engage with? That’s right, a video.

Video content is the perfect way to engage with too lazy or busy users to give themselves to time-consuming articles and newsletters. This will increase your site’s number of conversions while also giving someone something productive to do.
