2. Video Content Seeding – The Pitch
• Online Video is fast becoming a preferred
medium to reach and engage online users.
• Video content seeding is an innovative way to get
brand videos viewed by users on video sites,
blogs and social networks in an unobtrusive,
contextual manner.
• Video seeding relies on a combination of digital
PR, on-site and word-of-mouth marketing to get
videos viewed on YouTube and other video sites
where the fight for attention is fierce.
3. Video Content Seeding – The Logic
• In reality, majority of video content fails to
achieve ROI let alone viral levels of audience
penetration
• The challenge is to subtly hold the user’s
attention and seed the brand in their conscious
• The user has to identify with the content and
context for the effect to be exponential
• So you achieve extrapolation effect that's not
possible with ads.
4. How it works?
• Video content of a
brand, shot & owned by
the advertiser, would be
distributed across online
video properties.
• The content would be
part of a publisher’s
regular content channels
or promoted content
channels.
5. How it works?
• Video content offers an
extended time opportunity
for the brand to engage the
user vis-à-vis an
advertisement
• The non-advertising nature
of content seeding helps the
brand avoid Advertising
blind-spots while
establishing a connection 15 secs 8.30mins

6. Elements of a Content
Seeding Strategy
• Get a fix on the target audience and desired outcome. YouTube isn’t the
only place where people are consuming content. There are many other
interesting options
• Choose an identity and a design style or color palette that will be
consistent across properties. Creating a unique cross channel online
presence can go a long way, especially in a seeding campaign with
multiple videos.
• Have a series of videos to keep the interest going and upload the series
based on a schedule
• Once the seeding has begun, actively manage the properties you exist
on. That means monitoring conversations around the content and even
responding to people's comments.
