As per a report from Smart Insights, 83% of marketers believe video is becoming increasingly important. Companies, irrespective of their size and types, need to implement video into all aspects of their marketing strategy considering the evolving video trend, to increase brand loyalty and ROI.
Once brands and marketers create engaging videos, the teams should come up with ways to maintain control of their content. Marketing teams need to make sure where the content is stored and who gets to access it.
Maintaining control of external video content is even more challenging especially on larger streaming platforms, such as YouTube. They come with minimal guidance, leaving marketers to figure out how to successfully showcase videos and monitor engagement.
On the other hand, smaller platforms can easily tackle internal and external control issues, and businesses should use them to house, manage and distribute their video content. This allows marketers to maintain the power of their content, monitor who sees it, where it goes, and its success.
