64%
YOU NEED VIDEO IN YOUR LIFE
79%
4X
1200%
Online video accounted for 64% of all
consumer internet traffic in 20151
By 2018 that number is expected to be 79%2
4x as many consumers would rather watch a
video about a product than read about it3
Social video generates 1200% more shares
than text and images combined4

THE STAGE IS SET
• The video market has matured
• Marketers cannot rely on long-‐form storytelling anymore
• No one has the aRenSon span
• Social media is increasingly visual
Now we show our stories.
5. @kristysf
CONSUMERS ARE
85% MORE LIKELY
TO PURCHASE A
PRODUCT AFTER
WATCHING A
PRODUCT VIDEO.
6. @kristysf
INFLUENCER MARKETING IS READY
CONVERGENCE
Video isn’t siloed from the rest of digital and influencer planning
TECHNOLOGY
Especially mobile – has caught up with consumer demand
9. @kristysf
• 82% of all internet users visit YouTube
• 300 hours of video are uploaded every minute
• YouTube Influencers are becoming more predictable
Use YouTube for product reviews or tutorials that need to be minutes
(rather than seconds) long
11. @kristysf
• At least 28% of adults online use Instagram
• Majority of adults are aged 18-‐29
• Strong African American and Hispanic presence
• Instagram spans ages, race, gender, income, educaSon, and other demographics more
widely than other plaforms
Instagram’s short video format is about the aestheScs: use for showing off
preRy things like beauty, fashion, visual products, or stories
OR as teasers for longer-‐format video (YouTube)
13. @kristysf
• 200M monthly viewers
• Over 70% are millennials or younger
• Teens and tweens LOVE vine videos, all 6 seconds of them
Vine is less about the aestheScs, more about the fun and the funny
15. @kristysf
• 70% of Facebook video is uploaded directly to the plaform: it’s easy and “everyday”
people (including “micro-‐influencers”) take part
• Anything that happens in Facebook plaform has the built-‐in “shareable” edge
Best new use is short instrucSonal videos, like BuzzFeed’s Tasty and
Nipy channels
17. @kristysf
THE GOOD: Over 100M daily acSve users. 60% of Snapchat users are in the 13-‐24
age range.
THE BAD: SSll totally mysterious and ever-‐changing. Brands spending the $ on
Discover have had successes (but sSll hard to track app-‐to-‐in-‐store conversions)
THE UGLY: REALLY hard as an influence tool
The best use of Snapchat with Influencers today is for brands to find
“mini-‐celebs” and use them for guest content creaSon + boosSng the
brand’s followers
18. @kristysf
“Tune in March 26-‐29 between 1-‐9 p.m. ET
for sets and words with Lil Wayne, George
Clinton and more.”
19. @kristysf
• 10M users, half are millennials
• 100M broadcasts
• SSll working on widespread adopSon
• Not totally brand-‐safe
Tremendous potenSal for influencer engagement around live events:
• Product launch
• Party
• Conference
• Behind-‐the-‐scenes
• A day in the life...
21. @kristysf
• More live-‐streaming opSons means consumers and brands will adjust to live video
being a “new normal” part of our social media lives
• Notable downside to YouTube Connect is that there’s no built-‐in way to tell people
you’re live-‐streaming (but there is with Periscope and Facebook)
• Possible that Facebook or YouTube will allow users to save their live streams,
whereas Periscope deletes streams aper 24 hours
LIVE
CONNECT
22. @kristysf
BEST PRACTICES:
• Product Reviews
• Tutorials
• “Hauls”
• Day in the Life/Just for Fun
• Facebook Short Videos, a la Buzzfeed
• Tasty
• Nipy

WAS IT AWESOME?
YOU GET WHAT
YOU MEASURE
(JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER SOCIAL
PLATFORM EVER)
24. @kristysf
WAS IT AWESOME?
• Video is not a magic bullet!
• You can only measure success if you know what you are measuring against
• Set realisSc goals and put #s to them: “Grow our audience” = “by how much?”
• Bigger isn’t always beRer – even “viral” videos are useless if it’s not viral among your
target demographic
25. @kristysf
LET’S NOT:
CONTROL THE VOICE
You can control the message, but not how the influencer is conveying it
FIRE/AIM/READY
“We need video” isn’t a strategy! Video is expensive and disasters are more costly than ever
APPLY ARBITRARY “ROI”
Unless you’re tying your programs to sales data, you’re not truly measuring ROI
Measuring acSvity is important, but remember that influencer markeSng is about building
brand awareness, and video sSll isn’t direct-‐response
EXPECT MIRACLES
We’ve already made all the social media markeSng mistakes, so let’s not repeat them!
