Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

Dennis Ritchie, a computer scientist, was able to identify the gaps and tap out the best features from both B and BCPL languages to invent a new hybrid.
Hence, C was born in 1972 at Bell Laboratories. A remarkably simple and highly readable programming language resulted in groundbreaking advancements in the IT industry.
✅What is C++ Programming?
C++ is an enhanced and extended version of C programming language, developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979 as part of his Ph.D. project. Bjarne developed what he called ‘C with Classes’ (later renamed C++) because he felt limited by the existing programming languages that were not ideal for large scale projects. He used C to build what he wanted because C was already a general-purpose language that was efficient and fast in its operations.
✅C++ Career Prospects:
With just C++ programming expertise, you will have excellent job opportunities, salaries, and career prospects. However, for a career based on programming languages such as Java and Python (which are in more demand than C++) or for careers based on front-end, back-end, and full-stack

Introduction
Video is the next big thing in marketing, with more and more
businesses from almost every possible industry taking advantage
of the motion picture in order to advertise their brands, products,
and services.
Video has long been a marketing staple, with television adverts
being around ever since the early TV sets. However, today’s
video marketing isn’t limited only to costly, feature-length
television commercials.
Thanks to social networking sites such as Facebook, Instagram
and Snapchat, it’s now possible to share your marketing videos
online with a wider audience, or even share live videos. YouTube,
the biggest video sharing company online, is also the first choice
of video marketing platform chosen by the companies who are
taking full advantage of this recent trend.
Video content has been proven to be the most effective of the
majority of other forms of online content. When watching a video,
customers are more likely to remember the video than they are to
remember written content or an image, for example. Because of
this, marketing videos tend to have a much bigger impact on
potential new customers as opposed to a marketing banner, for
example.

6. 6
This, along with the fact that video can attract a much wider
audience than most other forms of content, is one of the main
reasons as to why video content is the latest big trend in
marketing, and you should definitely utilize its powers for your
business, whether small or large.
In this book, you’ll discover:
Why you shouldn’t ignore the rising popularity of video
marketing;
How to use social media effectively for video marketing;
How to use Snapchat to reach out to the younger
generation;
Why Instagram videos are so effective;
Why you should definitely consider video product
descriptions;
How video reviews can help your company;
The various types of video content you can benefit from, and
Why every business needs a YouTube channel.
Video can be an extremely powerful medium when it comes to
connecting with and communicating with your audience. Many
businesses have found that the use of video allows them to better
present their brand ‘voice’ and image in a way that customers will
be able to relate to personally.
Since the video medium is so versatile, any business can use it in
order to reach out to their customers provided that they have
7. 7
carried out a lot of research on their target market and can come
up with a video which will make their brand relatable.
Another benefit of video content for businesses is that it no longer
costs half your budget to make a good marketing video. Thanks to
modern technology, it’s possible to put together a good video
using a basic camcorder or even a smartphone.
Video editing software can be obtained cheaply or even for free,
and you don’t always need to hire actors, either – sometimes
animations can be just as powerful when it comes to getting a
message across. Because of this, video marketing is also
increasing in popularity because it has become significantly more
accessible to smaller businesses.
With a number of platforms to choose from when it comes to
spreading your video content – YouTube, Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram, Snapchat and blogs to name just a few, there’s no
reason why any business owner shouldn’t be seriously thinking
about using video content and video marketing in order to reach a
wider audience and spread the word further about their brand,
products and services.

1. Why Is Sharing Video Content So
Popular?
Business owners who keep up with marketing trends will know
that video marketing is huge. With more and more social networks
adapting to the latest developments in video marketing – for
example Facebook’s new ‘Live’ feature, which allows both
company and personal Facebook account holders to post a live
video feed recorded from their smartphone to their Timeline, if
you’re a small business owner, now is the time to get involved
with this new trend in order to make sure that you don’t get left
behind.
Types of Video Content
Video content is a hugely powerful way to get a message across,
and there are many different types of video content which you
may consider using for your business and marketing purposes.
One of the most popular types of video content is marketing
content, where you will come up with a short movie that convinces
customers to express interest in your brand. Some marketing
videos may focus on the brand as a whole, whilst others may
focus on a particular product or service. You may use actors,
animations, or something else in order to put together a marketing
video.
9. 9
Another type of marketing video that you may come across in
your use of video content is the video product review. Product
reviews are hugely important in the world of online shopping, with
many people relying on the reviews left by others when it comes
to purchasing products and services online. However, video
product reviews can be very impactful and have more of an effect
on the viewer’s decision than standard written reviews.
One of the best ways to get video product reviews is to send
samples of your products to vloggers (video bloggers) in the
industry and ask them to leave you a video review. This is also a
situation where you could use apps such as Snapchat, which
allow users to leave small videos in succession on their personal
Snapchat ‘story’.
Another type of video content which you may use is a video
product description. With online shopping becoming more and
more popular as an increasing number of people are opening
their laptops rather than hitting the high street, competition for
businesses online has grown significantly.
This has led to online retailers looking for new and innovative
ways to generate interest in their products online which leads to
more sales. Video product descriptions are hugely effective for
this purpose as they go a step further than the standard text and
photograph descriptions; they tell a story and allow the customer
to see the product that they are considering buying in action. As a
10. 10
result, the customer has a clearer idea of the product and can
make a more informed decision to buy it. This is especially useful
for things that many still like to see in person before buying, for
example clothing, jewelry, or automobiles.
Why Use Video Content?
Every business which has an online presence should use video
content in some form or another. With video now being more and
more accessible, even the smallest of businesses with the tightest
of budgets can afford to use video content to some extent, even if
it is just Snapchat stories or Facebook Live videos.
Even if you own a business which does not sell products online,
using platforms such as YouTube to upload videos which
describe your products, for example, before sharing these on your
social media pages can be effective in generating more interest
and boosting your sales.
Whether your business is based online or not, it is absolutely vital
to have an online presence – whether this be a website, blog,
social media profiles or ideally, all three. Posting videos online
can not only make your company more popular and help you
reach a wider audience, it can also improve your business
website’s SEO and even your local SEO endeavors.

11. 11
Market Demand
As video content has become more and more popular for
reaching out to and connecting with customers online, there has
been an increase in market demand for it. Today’s customers are
increasingly expecting their favorite businesses and brands to
provide them with video content to watch whether it be
advertisements, informational videos, product reviews, product
descriptions, or simply videos for their entertainment.
With video becoming more and more popular on social
networking sites and apps such as Facebook, Snapchat and
Instagram, the modern consumers of today expect to be able to
connect with the brands that they associate with via video
content.
Customer Satisfaction
Today’s customers are not only looking for products and services
which meet their needs. It is becoming increasingly more
important for customers that they connect with and relate to the
brands which they purchase from. Because of this, video
marketing is an essential component when it comes to making
sure that your customers are fully satisfied with the type of service
that they receive.
12. 12
No longer does customer service end when the phone is hung up
or when the customer leaves the store; thanks to social media,
customer service and relations is now an ongoing thing which
must be addressed and improved continuously. Customers are
not only going to judge your brand based on their experience
when browsing for and purchasing products/services, but also on
the way in which your brand communicates with them and
portrays itself on social media. Because of this, video content
provides businesses of all sizes with a prime opportunity to
improve customer satisfaction levels and work to keep their
existing and potential customers happy.
13. 13
2. Social Media and Video Marketing
If you keep up to date with trends in social media, you’ll probably
be aware that video content is quickly taking over most other
forms of content. On their personal pages, Facebook users are
now updating their Timelines with Live videos instead of writing
about what they are doing or taking photos.
This is allowing friends and family to experience the moment
along with the person who is recording the live video, in real time.
Not only has this enhanced the social media experience for
personal users, it has also become a hugely effective new tool for
business users. Similarly, Instagram’s relatively new video feature
has been a huge hit with both business and personal users.
Although Instagram’s video time limit is a matter of minutes, these
short videos can have a dramatic effect when done right.
Snapchat, which began as a photo-sharing app that was popular
with teenagers, has now become a hugely powerful marketing
platform with hundreds of businesses sharing images and videos
with other Snapchat users.
Last but not least, every social media site is able to share
YouTube videos, making YouTube still the best platform for
uploading your videos to the web.
14. 14
Effective Social Media Strategies
Any good business owner or marketer will know that in order to be
successful with a social media account in business, it’s vital to
have the right strategies in place in order to gain attention from
the maximum amounts of people at the right times. When it
comes to social media marketing using video content, it is vital to
have good marketing strategies in place in order to ensure that
you get the best results. For example, the timing of your videos is
key to getting a good response.
Some of the best times to post videos on your social media pages
are during lunch time and in the evenings, when most people are
not working and are more likely to be relaxing and catching up on
social media. Similarly, the weekends are also a good time to
increase your video sharing activity.
However, bear in mind that timing could vary depending on your
specific target audience, so it’s essential to make sure that you
carry out the necessary market research before putting this
strategy in place. For example, if you’re targeting students, you
may get a better response by posting late at night or in the mid-
morning.
On the other hand, businesses targeting people who work in
typical 9-5 jobs are best sticking to evenings and weekends when
15. 15
it comes to updating their social media pages with fresh new
video content.
Generating Interest On Social Media
In order to generate interest in your video content on social
media, it’s important to make sure that you use other forms of
content to grab the attention of your followers. Whilst some social
media sites, such as Instagram, may play your video content
automatically, others, such as Facebook, may require the user to
actively press the play button in order to view the video. In this
case, using written content to create an interesting and attention-
grabbing description of the video will encourage more users to
press play.
When it comes to writing good video descriptions on social media,
it’s important to remember to keep things short and to the point –
anything too long could end up boring the reader, and they might
not bother to watch the video after reading. A good way to create
interesting and compelling video descriptions is to leave the
reader wondering. For example, a simple ‘Can you guess what
happened when we went here?’ will leave the user wanting to find
out more, which will encourage them to take the time to watch the
video.
16. 16
Growing Your Social Media Presence Through Video
Video is one of the best types of content when it comes to
increasing your social media presence and gaining more
followers. Since video is available on the main social media
networks – Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat – it’s
easy for businesses to upload their videos to YouTube and share
them on the various social media platforms in order to reach a
broader audience.
We have already seen the power of social media and video
combined – more and more people are rising to internet fame
through short, humorous, or informative videos on social media
than ever before. Businesses such as make-up and cosmetics
stores and artists are using social media to grow their businesses
through short, tutorial videos, and similarly, food bloggers are
utilizing video to its full extent by creating short, catchy recipe
videos which are extremely popular. The key to using video to
grow your business’ presence on social media is to create content
which is shareable, along with actively asking your followers to
share it.
When creating video content, it’s a good idea to study your target
audience and find out the things that they enjoy sharing with their
personal social media followers. When you create content that
your direct followers love to share, you will expose it to a much
wider audience.
17. 17
Using Video to Connect With Social Media Followers
Using video to connect with your social media followers is
something which is becoming more and more popular for
businesses and has a range of great benefits. As mentioned
earlier, social media and the online shopping boom means that
customer service is now something which is expected 24/7.
Customers expect to be kept up to date with their favorite brands
through social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat.
Facebook Live Video – One of the best ways to keep your
customers up to date using social media and video is Facebook’s
Live Video feature. Not only does Facebook now allow you to
keep your customers up to date in real time when you’re doing
something special such as attending a big industry event, taking
part in charity fundraising, or unveiling a big new product, it also
allows you to communicate directly with your customers, for
example through live question and answer sessions. When you
stream a live video on Facebook, you can see the comments
being left on it. This means that you can ask your followers to
leave any questions in the comments, where you can read them
and answer straight away as the asker watches. This can be a
great tool to use when it comes to finding out what it is that
customers want to know about your business, or what they would
like to see in the way of changes and adjustments.
18. 18
Snapchat: Snapchat was once exclusively for teens and young
people, but today, more and more businesses are understanding
the power of this app when it comes to connecting with
customers. With more and more people of all ages signing up to
Snapchat every day, having a brand snapchat account can be a
great way to communicate with your customers and get more
exposure for your brand. Although snapchat videos only last a
matter of seconds, short, to-the-point videos can be hugely
effective, or you can use a sequence of short videos to tell a story
or share what you are currently doing with your followers.
19. 19
3. Get Younger Customers By Using
Snapchat
With the younger generation having the highest number of people
who are more likely to choose to shop online over any other age
group, it’s no surprise that businesses are increasingly targeting
those between the ages of 16-30. Online sales are beginning to
make up a bigger portion of the total profits of most businesses,
with more and more companies in existence which operate solely
on the web. In order to increase sales, businesses are using
social media to reach out to the younger generation who are often
more likely to buy products online as a result of seeing social
media advertisements and updates.
Why Snapchat Works
Snapchat has become more and more popular since its
beginnings just a few years ago. Starting off as a photo sharing
app where the photo is deleted after a number of seconds
specified by the sender, Snapchat now has a range of features
such as the ‘My Story’ option, Snapchat chat, and the option to
send videos and photographs both directly from the Snapchat app
and from the user’s camera roll. A number of big businesses have
also taken to Snapchat and it is regularly used to update users
and give them the inside scoop on different events taking place
around the world, for example the Olympic Games, Fashion
20. 20
Week, or the Oscars. Businesses can use Snapchat in order to
update their followers on what they are doing, making it a
powerful tool when it comes to being a brand that is relatable and
feels more of a ‘friend’ than a business. Other Snapchat features
can also be utilized in order to better connect with your
customers, for example you could ask followers to send in their
snaps using your products, which you will replay to a bigger
audience. This not only improves your relationship with your
customers and helps them to feel valued and more involved in
your company, it’s also great advertisement for you!
Why Businesses Need Snapchat
If you’re already using the main social media networks –
Facebook, Twitter and perhaps Instagram – to upload videos and
other types of content for your users to see, you might be
wondering if there’s much point in getting Snapchat for your
business. Even though Snapchat may not yet be seen as one of
the main social networks, it is growing at a rapid rate and has a lot
of potential to be massive in the future. More and more people are
choosing to use Snapchat over other social media options to
connect with their friends and family due to the fact that it is more
‘to the point’ than many other social media networks and provides
users with a simple but effective way to stay in touch with not only
their personal friends but also with the brands that they love.
Setting up a Snapchat account which your customers and
potential customers can follow is a great way to help them feel
21. 21
that they are more connected to your brand. You’ll earn even
more customer relations points if you allow people to send you
snaps, or even follow users back!
What Can You Share On Snapchat?
The beauty of snapchat is that it can be used to share a whole
range of different things. You can upload photographs of your
latest products, store openings, the office, or anything else in your
business that you think your target audience will be interested in
seeing. Taking videos of the different things going on inside your
business will give your audience an insider’s look and help them
to better connect with your brand. Being able to connect with a
brand today is an important factor for many consumers when
looking to purchase products and services, especially within the
younger generation, with many young consumers purchasing
products simply because they feel a connection with that brand,
even if there are better products available from competing brands.
Using Snapchat for Research
Snapchat is also a great tool for research when it comes to
understanding your target audience and learning more about their
preferences, likes, and dislikes. When you connect with your
customers on Snapchat, you can find out about them in many
different ways – for example, you may be able to follow them in
order to watch what they upload to Snapchat, or ask your
22. 22
followers to send in Snaps and chats answering different
questions which you will ask. Holding a ‘Q&A’ session on
Snapchat which you’ll advertise beforehand not only on the app
but also on a range of other platforms can be a very effective way
to gain more Snapchat followers, get your followers sharing your
content, and find out more about your target audience and get to
know what they want. Not only does this improve your knowledge
of your target audience, it has a lot of potential to provide you with
a range of other benefits such as increasing your online presence,
improving profits, and boosting customer satisfaction.

4. Why You Shouldn’t Ignore Instagram
In the past, Instagram may have gained a bit of a reputation for
being a boring photo-sharing app where the majority of users
pretended their lives were at lot better than they actually were.
However, if you’ve been keeping up to date with the evolution of
Instagram, you’ll probably know already that this photo sharing
app is quickly becoming one of the most powerful tools for
business marketing using video. Instagram’s approach to video
may be a little behind – there’s no option for live video and it’s not
as quick to use as Snapchat – but, it’s still taking the marketing
industry by storm, and for very good reason. Although Instagram
only allows users to upload videos which last a matter of minutes,
these short and to-the-point videos have proven to be a hugely
effective marketing tool.
Today’s modern consumer is a very busy person, and they do not
want to waste time watching lengthy videos, especially if there is
a quicker way to get the message across. One of the best
examples of Instagram videos is those used by make-up artists.
Professional MUA’s and beauty bloggers quickly saw the benefits
of using Instagram videos for marketing, making short and sweet
tutorials which were sped up in order to fit into Instagram’s short
video timeframe. Instantly, this became a big hit with their
followers, who were suddenly able to learn how to get a make-up
look that takes 45 minutes to complete without having to watch a
24. 24
video which took that long. Instead, make-up enthusiasts can now
scroll through Instagram and learn how to get the latest looks
from their favorite MUA’s in under ten minute’s time. This allows
busy users to get the latest video updates from their favorite
brands quickly and efficiently, whether they’re flicking through
Instagram on their lunch break or during the morning commute.
Effective Instagram Videos
The most popular videos on Instagram tend to be the ones which
tell a story or portray a series of steps on how to do something.
Since videos will need to be sped up in order to ensure that the
whole thing fits into Instagram’s given timeframe, this provides
users with a quick way to stay up to date or learn something new.
Depending on the type of business which you run, you may be
able to easily incorporate these types of videos into your
Instagram feed. ‘How-to’ videos featuring the products that you
sell, for example, can not only be a great way of grabbing the
attention of your followers, but can also be a great advertisement
method to help get more exposure for the product.
Connecting With Customers
As with other social media platforms such as Facebook, Snapchat
and YouTube, you can use Instagram video to better connect with
your customers. As well as providing informational and
educational content in the form of how-to video guides, for
25. 25
example, you can also use Instagram to keep your customers
updated with what’s going on on the inside of your company.
Upload videos to Instagram when it comes to whatever it is that
your brand is getting involved with.
Along with this, you can also use Instagram to connect with your
customers by finding out more about them via what they upload to
the app. Although some of your followers may have private
Instagram accounts, you may find that many will have their
uploads available to the public. Browsing through the types of
things that your followers get excited about on Instagram can help
you to get a better picture of your target audience and be better
able to determine what to post in order to get their attention and
generate interest.
Linking Networks Together
One of the best things about Instagram is that you can use links in
the video or photo description. Because of this, it works well as a
platform to use when sharing ‘snippets’ of longer videos or short
descriptions of blog posts, live interviews, or other new updates
on your other social media profiles or your business website. For
example, if you upload a video interview with a celebrity on your
website, you can use Instagram to advertise it by uploading a
preview of the clip and a link to the full-length movie for your
users to follow. Not only does this mean that you will generate
more traffic to your website, blog and other social media sites, it
26. 26
also helps to generate more interest in your content by leaving
viewers wondering what else happens after they have seen the
preview.
27. 27
5. Using Video for Describing and Re-
viewing Your Products
Every video platform including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram,
and Snapchat provides you with a great opportunity to upload
video product descriptions and reviews. For many businesses,
YouTube is a natural choice when it comes to creating and
uploading video product descriptions and reviews as it can be
viewed both on YouTube itself as well as shared on a whole
range of other platforms including Facebook, Twitter, and even
embedded on blogs and websites. YouTube’s huge shareability
means that you will be able to reach a wider audience with your
video product descriptions and reviews, as people are more likely
to share videos than any other type of content, and YouTube
allows them to share it on a wide range of different platforms,
making your content available to an even wider audience and
creating genuine backlinks to your site and YouTube channel,
improving your business’ SEO.
Why You Should Consider Video Product Descriptions
Video product descriptions are becoming a hugely effective tool
for marketing online. Not only can video descriptions be used for
providing potential customers with a first-hand view of the
products that you sell on your website, they can also be used for
marketing purposes by uploading them onto social media
28. 28
websites, where people who are not familiar with your brand may
find them and become interested. There are many different
benefits of using video product descriptions, with the main one
being that they are more engaging for your customers. When you
provide your customers with a video product description as
opposed to text and photographs, it allows them to get a first-
hand look at the product and what it looks like in real life when it’s
being used. For some products, a video description could be
made in the form of a how-to guide, which shows the customer
how to use the product to get the best results from it once they’ve
purchased it. Or, another example would be clothing stores, who
could provide a catwalk video of their fashion pieces in action.
Video product descriptions can also have the effect on making
customers relate to the product more as they watch others use it
in the types of ways that they would.
Reaching Out to Customers Through Video Descrip-
tions
Businesses are quickly realizing the power of video product
descriptions when it comes to reaching out to their customers and
generating more interest in their brand. Not only does a video
product description double up as a great marketing tool which can
be shared on various social media and video platforms, it can also
be used in such a way that the customer feels a stronger
connection to the brand and product. For example, a toy store
who is targeting parents of young children could use a video
29. 29
product description which features toddlers having fun and
playing with the toy. This is much more likely to resonate with a
parent, who will find it easier to visualize their own child enjoying
the product that they’re viewing.
Why Video Product Reviews Are So Effective
When it comes to using video in order to advertise, market and
promote your products, video product reviews can be hugely
effective. Product reviews are already an important part of
shopping online, with a huge range of sites available that are
dedicated purely to reviewing various businesses and
establishments. Bloggers regularly make a profit from testing and
reviewing the products from different businesses and brands in
their industry, whether via written content or video.
Video bloggers, known as vloggers, have become more and more
popular in recent times. Vloggers cover a whole range of different
topics, whether they’re travelling around the world in their videos,
creating beauty tutorials, gaming, cooking and baking, DIY,
following their pets, or even creating funny prank and parody
videos. The reality is, vloggers can be hugely popular people
online, with many making a name for themselves simply because
the videos that they post generate a lot of attention. When it
comes to reaching out to a wider audience, vloggers are people
who are in a great position to help you out. Finding a vlogger who
has a large following and creates videos which are related to your
30. 30
business industry is a great way to get the word out there by
creating a video product review. Depending on the type of
products that you want them to review, you may be able to get the
review on their vlog in return for sending them a product to test
free of charge, whilst others may accept payment for advertising
your brand in their videos.
Video Reviews: The Personal Touch
Anybody who is considering making a serious, important or
expensive purchase online without being able to test out the
product first is going to prioritize reading customer reviews. Any
good e-commerce site knows that allowing customers to leave
reviews for not only the business as a whole but for each specific
product can go a long way when it comes to building trust with
customers and improving customer relations. However, although
reading written reviews can provide your customers with a lot of
information about a product in order to make an informed decision
about purchasing it, a video review can have a ‘personal’ touch
which resonates stronger. Actually watching and listening to a
person review a product can have a much bigger impact on a
customer than simply reading about it. This is because when
somebody is watching another person reviewing a product, they
have the benefit of being able to see things such as facial
expressions and body language, which can tell the viewer a lot.
This is often missed in written product reviews, where it can often
be easy to misunderstand things.

Using Video Reviews to Connect With Your Custom-
ers
The great thing about video today is that anybody can make a
video in a matter of minutes or even seconds. Modern
smartphones all have great video-shooting capabilities and
features, so not only is it easier for businesses of all sizes to
shoot and upload videos to their social media sites, their
customers can also do it, too! There are many different ways in
which you can use video to connect with and communicate better
with your customers, and asking them to leave video reviews of
your products that they’ve purchased from you is an effective and
fun way to do this. Holding a competition for the best video where
the winner gets a prize, for example, is a good way to generate
interest in your company, boost sales, and improve customer
satisfaction. Not only does asking customers to send in their own
video product reviews allow them to engage with your brand, it
also encourages them to buy from your brand in order to be able
to make a product review and share the competition with their
friends and followers. By asking customers to create video
product reviews, you can expose your brand and products to a
larger audience when they upload and share their video to their
own social media profiles. Video reviews could be uploaded on
YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, or all of them!

6. Why Your Business Needs a YouTube
Channel
For social media sites, video is a relatively new trend. Although
it’s been possible to share videos on Facebook and Twitter since
the early days, features such as uploading live video or having a
video profile picture have been introduced later on. However,
YouTube is the one video sharing platform which has been
around for years. The biggest video sharing platform in the world,
YouTube is trusted worldwide and is the go-to site for watching
videos about literally anything. With millions of users who enjoy
spending their free time looking for new and interesting videos to
watch, it definitely makes sense for businesses of all sizes to
have their own YouTube channel.
Benefits of Using YouTube
When it comes to using video to market your brand and products,
YouTube should be the first place that you go to. You can use the
videos that you upload to YouTube for a wide range of different
purposes, sharing them not only with your YouTube followers but
also with your followers on social media sites such as Facebook
and Twitter with the click of a button. You can also easily upload
YouTube videos to a business blog by copying and pasting the
embed link into your blog’s HTML. If you use a CMS such as
33. 33
WordPress, you can get widgets and tools to include your latest
YouTube video uploads on your blog directly.
Using YouTube to Improve SEO
Having a YouTube channel which is regularly updated with fresh
and interesting content which attracts a lot of attention from your
target audience can be hugely beneficial for your SEO. Not only
does choosing your words carefully when creating informative
video descriptions mean that you can include important key words
and phrases, but you can also use this opportunity to create
genuine and authentic backlinks to your business website or blog.
Including keywords and your business name and location in your
YouTube video product descriptions can also improve your
search engine ranking in both general and local Google search
results.
Using YouTube For Advertising
Along with uploading your own videos onto YouTube, you can
also use this popular marketing platform to further advertise your
brand, products and services. YouTube is a popular choice of
video bloggers in a range of different industries who regularly post
updates and have a range of followers. Along with that, there are
many official users of YouTube who upload clips such as music
videos or short films, all of which can feature a short
advertisement before the video. Depending on the users who will
34. 34
be featuring your ads, YouTube ads can cost a little or a lot, but it
can be a hugely effective way to generate more interest in your
business from YouTube users. You can also use interactive
YouTube ads, which allow the user to click on the ad to open the
business website or landing page in a new tab.
Connecting With Your Target Audience on YouTube
One of the best things about YouTube is that it is easy to use
when it comes to connecting with your target audience. You can
allow or disable comments on videos, but allowing your viewers to
comment will provide you with a great insight into which videos
are popular and which are not received quite as well. Asking your
viewers to leave comments on your videos can also help to
improve levels of customer engagement, which is hugely
important for building a good connection and relationship with
your target audience. Actively asking your customers to leave
their opinions and views on your YouTube videos means that they
will feel more valued by your brand and is a great way to let them
know that they are appreciated and their voice matters.
Innovative YouTube Video Ideas
When it comes to uploading videos to your brand’s YouTube
channel, you can really get creative. Of course, you will want to
use your YouTube channel in order to showcase your marketing
videos, video product descriptions, video product reviews, latest
35. 35
brand news, and anything else you want to share with your
viewers. But, with so many brands jumping on the YouTube
channel bandwagon, the secret to success when using this video
sharing platform is to do something different and unique. For
example, you could hold competitions where you invite customers
to apply to appear in your marketing videos, create unique how-
to-guide videos, or make short films which feature your brand that
will grab the attention of your viewers. Keeping up to date with
what your competition are doing on YouTube is absolutely vital to
making sure that you’re not being left behind.

7. Encouraging Video Sharing
Last but not least, the secret to being successful with video
marketing using YouTube and various other video platforms is to
actively encourage video sharing. Studies show that users who
ask for shares are much more likely to get them than those who
do not. When you upload a video to any video sharing platform or
social media site, getting a good number of shares is key to
expanding the size of the audience that your content is reaching.
Actively asking for a share, whether at the end of the video or in
the video description, can prompt your followers to click the
‘share’ button – after all, it only takes a second.
Sharing Incentives
Another great way to get your customers sharing your video
content is to offer incentives for sharing. For example, holding a
competition where users who share a video are in with a chance
of winning a prize or promising to do something if a video post
reaches a certain number of shares are great ways to encourage
people to remember that sharing is caring.
Standing Out
With video content becoming so popular, it’s important to
remember that brands are at risk of ‘blending in’ with the crowd.
Creating content which is much the same as everybody else’s is
37. 37
less likely to get you as many shares as video content which is
different and stands out. Coming up with something new,
innovative, rare or unique can help you to generate more interest
in your business and as a result, increase the amount of times
your video content is shared. Although it may not always be
possible to come up with something truly unique, doing something
that makes your video stand out from the crowd can go a long
way when it comes to shareablility.
Engaging With Viewers
One of the best ways to encourage more shares when it comes to
your video content on social media, YouTube and even your
business website and blog is engaging with your customers. By
making your viewers feel that they are somehow involved with the
video simply by watching it, you will encourage them to share it
with their own friends and followers in order for them to have the
same experience. Creating video content which your target
audience will enjoy and relate to means that market research
should be a huge priority, in order to make sure that you know
what’s in demand.

Conclusion
Video marketing is becoming one of the biggest ways for
businesses and brands of all sizes to advertise their products and
services. Once reserved for multi-million dollar companies who
can afford to create television adverts, video marketing is now
significantly more accessible to businesses of all sizes, with
modern technology making it easier than ever before to create
cheap or even free marketing videos for the web.
Along with that, businesses no longer have to pay for prime time
television commercial slots in order to get their marketing clips
seen by their target audience. Thanks to social sharing sites such
as YouTube, Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook, businesses can
upload their marketing videos and other video content straight
away or even live stream to connect with their customers in real
time.
Indeed, demand for video content online is increasing at a rapid
rate, with the introduction of short ‘how-to’ videos becoming a
massive trend since the introduction of Instagram’s short video
upload feature. Users are increasingly finding that they prefer to
watch a short video rather than read lengthy guides or reviews,
whilst video product reviews are fitting in well to the latest trend of
providing as much information as possible about products to
potential customers.
39. 39
Using video sharing platfroms such as YouTube can also have a
significant impact on your business’ SEO. Not only can you
include genuine backlinks to your business website on your
YouTube video uploads, you can also optimize the video
descriptions with key words and phrases. Along with this, you
have the added benefit of also appearing in Google’s Video
Search results as well as web search. YouTube can also be used
to create backlinks to your business’ social media sites, improving
their search engine rankings along with that of your website and
blog. Along with this, YouTube videos are very highly sharable,
which can be very useful for creating high-quality backlinks
through user shares.
In short, if you’re not using video content and marketing for your
business yet, you should definitely change things, starting now.
With video being more accessible than ever before, even the
smallest of businesses can benefit.
