marketing: How to decide if it fits your marketing strategy"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>I often experience that companies underestimate how large the role video plays in how we consume content online today.<\/p>\n<p>Whether people are scrolling through social media, searching for guides online, or researching products before making a purchase, video is often a central part of the user experience.<\/p>\n<p>For many brands, this means that video marketing is increasingly becoming an important part of the digital marketing toolbox.<\/p>\n<p>Video can create awareness, explain complex messages, and help build a stronger relationship with the target audience.<\/p>\n<p>But does that mean every brand should invest heavily in video marketing?<\/p>\n<p>Not necessarily.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, it almost always depends on the company\u2019s goals, target audience, and available resources.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we will therefore take a closer look at what video marketing actually is, which advantages and challenges come with it, and how to evaluate whether video should be a central part of your marketing strategy.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_87

marketing refers to the use of video content as part of a company\u2019s marketing strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose can vary, but video is typically used to inform, engage, or persuade a target audience.<\/p>\n<p>Video marketing can take place on many different platforms and in many different formats.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>However, which types of video work best often depends on whether you are working with B2B or B2C marketing.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In B2B marketing, the audience is often more information-driven and the decision-making processes are longer.<\/p>\n<p>Here, video is typically used to explain solutions, share knowledge, or document results.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Typical B2B video formats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/thought-leadership\/\">Thought leadership<\/a> videos on platforms such as LinkedIn<\/li>\n<li>Product demonstrations and walkthroughs<\/li>\n<li>Case studies and testimonials from companies<\/li>\n<li>Explainer videos on YouTube<\/li>\n<li>Tutorials and how-to videos for <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/customer-onboarding\/\">onboarding<\/a> or knowledge sharing<\/li>\n<li>Webinars and professional presentations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In B2C marketing, the goal is often to create awareness, engagement, and faster purchase decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Here, shorter and more entertaining video formats often perform better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Typical B2C video formats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Short videos for social media<\/li>\n<li>Product videos or highlights<\/li>\n<li>Behind-the-scenes content<\/li>\n<li>Influencer or <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/customer-onboarding\/\">UGC-inspired content<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Customer testimonials<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/storytelling\/\">Storytelling<\/a> about the brand or the lifestyle around the product<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What all formats have in common is that video makes it possible to combine visuals, sound, and storytelling in a way that often makes the message easier to understand and more engaging for the viewer.<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, video is therefore often used as an integrated part of a broader digital strategy where it is combined with activities such as content marketing, SEO, social media, and email marketing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_video_has_become_so_popular\"><\/span><strong>Why video has become so popular<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several reasons why video today plays such a large role in digital marketing.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things I often discuss with companies is how user media habits have changed in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Many people today prefer content that is quick and easy to understand. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.demandsage.com\/video-marketing-statistics\/\">In fact, around 66 percent of consumers say video is the most engaging content format.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Video fits perfectly into this development because it combines images, sound, and storytelling in one format.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, many digital platforms are designed to highlight video content.<\/p>\n<p>On social media, algorithms often prioritize video over static posts, which naturally makes the format even more attractive.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_can_make_complex_messages_easier_to_understand\"><\/span><strong>Video can make complex messages easier to understand<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many products and services can be difficult to explain through text alone, especially when dealing with technical solutions, digital platforms, or processes that involve several steps.<\/p>\n<p>I often find that companies underestimate how much clarity a simple product demo or screen recording can create.<\/p>\n<p>A short video clip of 60 to 90 seconds can in many cases explain more than a longer text page, simply because users can see the solution in action.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_often_creates_higher_engagement\"><\/span><strong>Video often creates higher engagement<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Video generally tends to create more <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/engagement-rate\/\">engagement<\/a> than static content.<\/p>\n<p>When users encounter a video in their feed or on a website, there is a greater chance that they will pause and spend more time with the content.<\/p>\n<p>Video plays a particularly central role on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Many platforms prioritize video in their algorithms, which means that video content often receives greater reach and more interactions in the form of likes, comments, and shares.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_can_strengthen_brand_credibility\"><\/span><strong>Video can strengthen brand credibility<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Video can also be a powerful tool for building trust.<\/p>\n<p>When people see and hear others talk about a product, a company, or an experience, it often feels more authentic than a traditional marketing message.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, many companies use video to provide a more authentic and human insight into their work.<\/p>\n<p>This can be done through interviews with employees, small behind-the-scenes glimpses, or customer stories from real projects.<\/p>\n<p>This type of content can make the brand feel more <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/social-proof\/\">relatable and credible.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Instead of simply telling the audience what the company does, viewers can see it in practice and hear experiences from people who have worked with the solution.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_can_strengthen_your_SEO_efforts\"><\/span><strong>Video can strengthen your SEO efforts<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Video can also play a role in search engine optimization.<\/p>\n<p>Although video alone does not automatically lead to better rankings in Google, it can indirectly influence several factors that matter for <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/entity-based-seo\/\">SEO<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>First, video can increase the amount of time users spend on a page.<\/p>\n<p>If a visitor watches a video on a landing page or within a blog post, they will often stay on the page longer.<\/p>\n<p>This can be a positive signal for search engines because it indicates that the content is relevant.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, video can also create extra visibility in search results.<\/p>\n<p>Videos may appear in Google\u2019s video results or in searches on <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/youtube-seo\/\">platforms such as YouTube, which functions as the world\u2019s second-largest search engine.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When video is combined with strong written content, it can therefore help strengthen a website\u2019s overall visibility in search engines.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_types_of_video_work_well_in_marketing\"><\/span><strong>Which types of video work well in marketing?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many different types of videos that companies can use in their marketing strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Which ones work best depends largely on the audience and the purpose of the video.<\/p>\n<p>Let us look at some of the most commonly used formats.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Explainer_videos\"><\/span>Explainer videos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Explainer videos are short videos that explain a product, a service, or a concept.<\/p>\n<p>They are often used on websites or landing pages where they help visitors quickly understand what the company offers.<\/p>\n<p>A typical example could be a <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/saas-tool\/\">SaaS company<\/a> explaining its platform through a short animation or a screen recording.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The advantages of explainer videos include the ability to:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Explain complex solutions quickly<\/li>\n<li>Increase understanding of the product\u2019s value<\/li>\n<li>Reduce uncertainty among potential customers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tutorials_and_guides\"><\/span>Tutorials and guides<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Videos that teach the audience something are among the most popular types of content online.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guides and tutorials can show:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How to use a product<\/li>\n<li>How to solve a specific task<\/li>\n<li>Tips and tricks within a particular industry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This type of content can be especially effective in a content marketing strategy because it both creates value for users and positions the company as an expert in the field.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Customer_cases_og_testimonials\"><\/span><strong>Customer <\/strong>cases og testimonials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Customer stories are an effective way to build credibility.<\/p>\n<p>When potential customers can hear other companies or users talk about their experiences, it often has a stronger impact than traditional advertising messages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video testimonials can be used to show:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How a customer solved a problem<\/li>\n<li>Which results they achieved<\/li>\n<li>What the collaboration with the company was like<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This type of video can be particularly effective in B2B marketing.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Brand_storytelling\"><\/span>Brand storytelling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some companies use video to tell the <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/online-reputation-management\/\">story of their brand.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This can include stories about the company\u2019s values, mission, or background.<\/p>\n<p>This type of content is often less sales-oriented and focuses more on creating an emotional connection with the audience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brand storytelling may include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The story behind the company<\/li>\n<li>Interviews with founders or employees<\/li>\n<li>Insights into the company culture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Over time, this type of content can help strengthen brand identity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"greenbox\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_evaluate_whether_video_marketing_makes_sense_for_your_brand\"><\/span><strong>How to evaluate whether video marketing makes sense for your brand<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although video marketing plays an increasingly large role in the digital world, it does not necessarily mean that every company should invest equally in the format.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, it often comes down to evaluating whether video makes sense in relation to the company\u2019s audience, messages, and resources.<\/p>\n<p>If you are considering working more strategically with video, it can be helpful to start with a few fundamental questions.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_your_target_audience\"><\/span><strong>Who is your target audience?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>First and foremost, you should examine how your audience prefers to consume content.<\/p>\n<p>Some audiences are highly active on video-based platforms such as YouTube, <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/tiktok-seo\/\">TikTok<\/a>, or Instagram, while others primarily engage with articles, reports, or newsletters.<\/p>\n<p>The better you understand your audience\u2019s media habits, the easier it becomes to determine the role video should play in your communication.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_message_do_you_want_to_communicate\"><\/span><strong>What message do you want to communicate?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Video is particularly well suited for visual or complex messages.<\/p>\n<p>If your product or service involves processes, functions, or results that are easier to show than to explain, video can be a powerful complement to written content.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_resources_do_you_have_available\"><\/span><strong>What resources do you have available?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Although video marketing does not necessarily require large productions, it still requires planning and time.<\/p>\n<p>It is therefore important to consider how video fits into the company\u2019s existing marketing work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For example, ask yourself:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Who will produce the content?<\/li>\n<li>How often does it make sense to publish videos?<\/li>\n<li>Which platforms should the videos be distributed on?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_get_started_with_video_marketing\"><\/span><strong>How to get started with video marketing<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to test video marketing, you do not need to start with a large-scale production.<\/p>\n<p>It is often beneficial to begin with small steps and learn along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few simple steps you can take.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Define_the_goal_of_the_video\"><\/span>1. <strong>Define the goal of the video<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The first step is to clarify what the video should achieve.<\/p>\n<p>Video should not be produced simply because the format is popular. It should always support a specific marketing objective.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on where in the customer journey the video will be used, the goal may vary.<\/p>\n<p>Some videos primarily aim to create awareness around the brand, while others aim to explain a product or motivate a potential customer to take the next step.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This could include goals such as:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Increased <a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/brand-awareness\/\">brand awareness<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Explaining a product or service<\/li>\n<li>Lead generation<\/li>\n<li>Engagement on social media<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When the goal is clear from the beginning, it becomes easier to plan the content and measure whether the video actually creates value.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Choose_the_right_platform\"><\/span>2. <strong>Choose the right platform<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An important part of video marketing is selecting the platform where the content makes the most sense.<\/p>\n<p>Video performs differently depending on the context and the platform where it is published.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It can therefore be useful to consider:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Where your audience is already active<\/li>\n<li>Which types of video content perform well on the platform<\/li>\n<li>How the video fits into your existing content strategy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By adapting the format to the platform, you increase the likelihood that the video will actually be seen and engage the audience.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Focus_on_value_for_the_audience\"><\/span>3. <strong>Focus on value for the audience<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Regardless of platform or format, the most important factor for successful video marketing is still the relevance of the content for the audience.<\/p>\n<p>If the video does not provide clear value to the viewer, it will rarely generate much engagement.<\/p>\n<p>Video should therefore always start from the audience\u2019s needs, questions, or challenges.<\/p>\n<p>This could involve explaining something complex, offering practical advice, or demonstrating concrete solutions in practice.<\/p>\n<p>Ask yourself:<\/p>\n<p>What does the viewer gain from watching this video?<\/p>\n<p>The clearer the value is for the viewer, the greater the likelihood that the video will be watched to the end, shared, or lead to a desired action.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Test_and_optimize\"><\/span>4. <strong>Test and optimize<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Like all other forms of digital marketing, video marketing is a discipline that should evolve through testing and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>The first videos will rarely be perfect, but they can provide valuable insights into what works and what can be improved.<\/p>\n<p>By analyzing data, you can gradually optimize both the content, format, and distribution.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It may be useful to examine factors such as:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Watch time (how long users watch the video)<\/li>\n<li>Engagement (likes, comments, and shares)<\/li>\n<li>Click-through rate<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/staging1787817111.mickyweis.comen\/what-are-micro-conversions\/\">Conversions<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These data points can provide a clearer picture of which types of videos resonate best with your audience and where in the customer journey video creates the most value.<\/p>\n<div class=\"greenbox\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_future_of_video_marketing\"><\/span><strong>The future of video marketing<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Everything indicates that video will play an even greater role in digital marketing in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p>Platforms continue to invest heavily in video formats, and user media habits are moving toward more visual content.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wyzowl.com\/video-marketing-statistics\/\">In fact, data shows that in 2025 around 87 percent of people felt convinced to invest in a product or service after seeing it demonstrated in a video.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>At the same time, new AI-based technologies make it easier than ever to produce and edit video.<\/p>\n<p>This also means that video is no longer limited to companies with large marketing budgets.<\/p>\n<p>Today, many brands can achieve strong results with relatively simple productions as long as the content is relevant and targeted.<\/p>\n<p>For many companies, video will therefore increasingly become a natural supplement to other forms of content marketing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_strategic_complement\"><\/span><strong>A strategic complement <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Video marketing has undoubtedly become a central part of the digital marketing landscape.<\/p>\n<p>For many companies, video can be an effective way to communicate messages, engage the target audience, and strengthen brand visibility online.<\/p>\n<p>However, this does not necessarily mean that all brands should produce large amounts of video content.<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing is to start from the company\u2019s goals, target audience, and resources. In some cases, a few well-produced videos can create far more value than a large amount of content without a clear strategy.<\/p>\n<p>As a digital marketing consultant, I often see companies achieve the best results when video is used as a strategic complement to other marketing efforts rather than as an isolated discipline.<\/p>\n<p>When video is used correctly, it can become a powerful tool for creating visibility, engagement, and stronger relationships with the target audience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I often experience that companies underestimate how large the role video plays in how we consume content online today.
