You’ve seen the videos in your social feeds. They catch your eye because they promise much more than simple text. You’re not alone. Almost everyone experiences that – including your customers. Today, it’s not just social media. And it’s not just plain video. Now you can gain your own personalized video benefits at scale. Easily, inexpensively, and effectively. Personalized video marketing is already changing how business is done, helping you engage your audiences, elevate customer satisfaction, and enhance your return on investment.
What is Personalized Video Marketing
Your videos can speak directly to your customers by name, addressing their specific needs and interests. That’s the power of personalized video marketing. This strategy creates dynamic videos tailored to each viewer or audience segment, grabbing their attention and drawing deeper engagement. In fact, social media users share videos 12 times more often than text and images combined.
With your personalized videos, you can customize just about anything from the messages and branding to the calls to action. Make, test and improve your videos over time to increase engagement and conversions. These personalized videos draw from your customer data, elements like first name, business name, subscription/loyalty tier and products purchased, to create a unique viewing experience for each individual or group.
Why Personalized Video Marketing Matters
Marketing is no longer about creating static marketing assets to use with every customer. Modern marketing focuses on creating rich brand experiences for your customers. Video and personalization each allow much greater impact and, used together, they give the greatest impact of all in your marketing toolkit.
Personalized video marketing helps you increase brand loyalty by creating a more personalized and immersive experience for your customers. If you have adopted account-based marketing (ABM), you can effectively deliver tailored video content across the spectrum from high-value strategic accounts to thousands of targeted accounts.The result? More loyal customers who are happy to spend more, easier to serve, and ultimately, more valuable to your business. Businesses that use personalized video as part of their ABM strategy see as much as a 93% increase in meeting-to-qualified pipeline conversions.
Personalized Video Benefits
With personalized videos you can increase engagement because the videos are more likely to grab attention and keep viewers engaged than generic videos. You can also increase brand recall because the video experience is so much more memorable. That engagement is a powerful tool for driving sales and conversions by building stronger relationships with your customers.
