4. Make compelling content - make content people want to watch - and make it for your target audience..
5. Keep quality in the forefront. A poorly produced video can do more to harm your credibility as a business than no video at all. People see poor quality a reflection of yourself and business.
6. Call to Actions. Always include a call to action in your video. What do you want them to do after they watched your video. Answer that questions and include an action step in the video.
7. Make sure your audio is high quality. This is important because believe it or not people will tolerate a video with bad visuals...but if no one will watch a video with poor audio.
8. Use graphics to enhance and brand your videos. Make it personal; let them know who you are by including lower third graphic with your name. Don’t forget to incorporate your logo to show your brand as well.
9. Optimize your video for the web. You know search engines can’t crawl a video like it can a page of boring text. Give it a little help and include keywords, title tags and perhaps a transcription.
10. share your video. now that you have your video, share with associates and friends on your social media pages.
