Search engine optimizing.
Quick story for you. Please raise your hand if you are an entrepreneur or business owner. You will appreciate this story.
So hand many of you have one of these? A website. So I use to own a digital signage company. It was a virtual business so I knew I had a to have a good looking website. I think I spent over $5,000 on my website.
We wait for the phone to ring. But just because we have a beautiful website isn’t enough. You have to get found or no one is going to know you exist. Right?
So one day my dad calls me and says, ”David, I did a search for your company on Google and I can’t find it”. I knew if my dad couldn’t find my website, then how were my potential customers going to find me. So long story short, I learned everything I could about search engine optimization. And I was able to optimize my website and got it to appear at the bottom of the 1st page of Google. But I noticed something else. Videos showing up in searches. So I decided to optimize the video and something amazing happened.
My video got ranked on the 1st page of Google and it was the very 1st link on the page.

Many people ask us why they should use video, when the real question is why aren’t they using video? There are many statistics about video. Here are just a few of the most significant.
Here are 5 mistakes people make about video.
Everybody thinks video is easy. We all have a HD camera in our pocket. I am sure you can appreciate it isn’t the camera that makes a cinematographer or editing software that makes someone an editor. These are just tools. It comes down to the person using them.
The problem is most people don’t know how much work goes into making a video or how much a video should cost. Many people see video as a commodity and simply shop based on price. As with any service each business is different and you want to find out what they include.
I came across the quote the other day. Where? The internet of course. And there is no better medium than video for storytelling.

Many people see video as a commodity and simply shop based on price. The problem is most people don’t know how much goes into making a video or how much a video should cost. There are 1 man production companies some good, some bad but they can’t do it all. You can find people who say they can do a video for $1,000 and people who say they can do a video for $10,000. Is the $10,000, 10x as good. Certainly could be possible. A potential client decided to shop based on price, found someone to do a video for $650. He figured if it was bad he would only be out $650. He just hired us last week.
I hear all the time, everyone’s videos look the same. This may in fact be true. How many movies have you gone to and walked out and said that sucked. You are talking about movies where 10’s of millions of dollars were spent. And almost every time, you know what the issue is? Not the quality of the picture. I am sure the special effects were amazing. The soundtrack was unbelievable. Even the actors were top notch. It was the story. Not everyone can tell a great story. This happens to be where we excel. My business partner has over 25 years of documentary filmmaking experience.
Many businesses are creating videos without a purpose or strategy behind it. Yeah, they want a video on their website because everyone is doing it but they don’t know what kind, how long or what story to tell. This is where we differ from almost everyone in the market. We take a strategic approach to provide our clients with results that address real business concerns and issues.
Video can be used through multiple marketing channels. It can be used on your website, social media, email marketing, a sales tool, training, products, blogs and so much more. No longer is video a business expense but an investment.
