What is it?
We view a business video series as a collection of informative videos created with the same end goal in mind. Traditionally three or more videos, they’re designed to have a universal appeal to customers and non-customers alike.
Why use one?
We live to tell our clients’ stories—and we especially love the storytelling opportunities that a business video series can provide. It’s a chance to push beyond strictly selling a product or service. A business video series offers a unique opportunity to connect with a wider audience, help them better understand complex topics within your industry, and encourage them to engage with your company. In other words, a series is a valuable tool to build your brand.
Expand your reach
BITE-SIZE YOUR MESSAGE
You’ve got a lot to say—too much to say all at once. An Educational Video Series gives you the chance to break your message down into more digestible, more shareable bits.
BUILD YOUR AUDIENCE
There are two types of people you really need to reach: those who don’t know what you stand for, and those who do but are on the fence. Meeting them where they are and educating them on your perspective is a great way to reach both.
ARM YOUR ADVOCATES
Sharing is caring. Okay, but seriously, your true fans will share your message for you if you give them the chance to. Educational Videos can be the tool that gets them sharing your message into their extended network.
