It takes some time to develop a comprehensive programmatic ad campaign… but ultimately, that time can prove very well-spent. Not only does proper planning help improve your results, but it can also make it much easier for you to pivot and adapt as necessary.
When developing a digital marketing strategy, it’s vital to account for the preferences and behaviors of the audience you’re trying to engage with. That may sound like a simple point, but in actual practice, aligning strategy with audience can be a challenge. That’s because consumer trends are in a constant state of flux, which means that marketers must be nimble and adaptive.
As you’ve no doubt noticed, short-form videos are everywhere these days. The most prominent example is TikTok, the social platform whose soaring popularity has been closely intertwined with the more general uptick in short video content. You can also find plenty of examples of more tenured social platforms getting in on the action: Think Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and more.
Over the past 18 months, most advertisers have changed their strategies considerably. Of course, there’s been good reason for this: Our world has gone through a season of unprecedented change and disruption, and advertisers have been wise in adapting their strategies accordingly.
Spend even a few seconds on the social media platform of your choice and you are almost guaranteed to see a video. In fact, most of us would readily admit to watching at least a couple of short video advertisings from our smartphones, each and every day. Clearly, video content is an essential part of the digital experience, and thus presents an invaluable opportunity for marketers to connect with their audience.
By now it is cliché to point out how much our world has changed since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; certainly, the past year has proven disruptive to consumer behavior, forcing advertisers to adapt in kind. As we wade deeper into a new year, and as we see more and more reason for optimism that the pandemic is in its endgame, many marketers are wondering what kind of tactics they should be investing in.
YouTube videos can be an effective way to educate and inform your customers, to demonstrate thought leadership, or to show off your products and services. Ultimately, YouTube may help you grow your business considerably… but only if you can actually get viewers.
There’s a very simple case to be made for why businesses and brands should have a presence on YouTube. That argument is reach. With more than two billion users logging in every single month, YouTube is the second most popular website in existence.
By now, the effectiveness of video content is indisputable. Studies have confirmed again and again that video gets more engagement, and more shares, than any other type of online content. The issue that many small business owners face isn’t that they don’t value video, but rather that they’re simply unsure of how to produce it.
Video marketing has become so ubiquitous, few advertisers or business owners would question its merits. Instead, a new question has emerged: Where’s the best place to put all this video content? With so many channels available, business owners naturally want to identify the best avenue for investment.
