Web 2.0 Strategies

Using video as part of your web 2.0 strategy helps keep viewers on your website longer, allowing you more time to educate, train, sell and turn them into customers.

The web 2.0 toolbox including blogs, video, podcasts, discussion groups and photo galleries are all important aspects to the success of your website. The adage a picture is worth a thousand words goes along way on the web.

Every business, school, church and non-profit should have short interview style videos of the key personnel within the organization. Additionally video on each aspect of their business sells what they do, from informative or ones that touch on the heart strings to get the message out to the prospects.

Short testimonials and success stories of how people have been helped by the product/service goes along way in adding credibility to the company or organization. The most important key element is to focus on the benefits your business offers and not the features.

Steeltech uses testimonials from their customers to sell what they do.

By using video the prospect sees what you offer, gives them a chance to understand what you do and buy into becoming a customer.

Contact DW Video today and have them produce your videos... you'll be happy you did.

Tips on Producing Better Video - The Music

Music –At DW Video we have purchased the copyrights to an entire library of musical backgrounds that can use to feature your business in the best way possible. The appropriate music for your video piece is as crucial as your message. Have a larger budget a custom soundtrack can be produced - contact Duane Today!

Tips on Video Content - Part 3

The Voice – Most videos include voice-overs. A professional voice talent has a way of drawing the viewer in, and conveying the right message. DW Video & Multimedia has a network of professional voices that can effectively promote your business.

In some cases having the business owner provide their own on-camera talent and voice, offers a personnel appeal. This is very important when you need that softer sell. It is important to note, that when using the owner, or staff member that it is being done for the benefit of the company…and not for the sake of ego.
