Editor's Notes
Introduce Yael.
Did anyone start texting their friend about dinner plans while i was running through that data? I’m not offended. As i said, goldfish era. So here’s how i can tell you all that a little better.
The only thing that’s irreplaceable when creating a video is the people in this room. Content creators. That's old-fashioned, now we have tools. What we need is content minds and creative ideas. That's it.
now that you know you're a 1 stop shop for everything a business needs to create the most compelling content on the web... let's make sure the videos are winners.
Convert a well-performing blog. You already have exceptional content. Break apart key points form winning articles and start there when creating both branding, thought leadership, and marketing videos.

For many marketing related searches, especially when it comes to a content persons favorite “how to…” and other informational queries … YouTube is the search engine of choice. Not to mention, Google is now showcasing YouTube results on their page. Searches of “how to” videos on YouTube are growing 70% year on year
On mobile alone, YouTube reaches more 18-49 year-olds than any broadcast or CABLE TV network.
Social networks are now promoting videos above images. Facebook released that by 2020, over 75% of mobile data traffic will be video.
We have consistently run tests and followed data research stating a 200-500% increase in CTR for Facebook Ad campaigns using Video versus a static image ad.
FB algorithm prefers video.
Today really great creatives need to be tested which means you need a lot of videos - which means you need to make a lot of content, quickly. This is why the old school version of big production isn’t relevant when scaling for social media advertisements.
One of the reasons that people think video is so time and money consuming is because we assume we need to showcase our product and often it’s more about connecting emotionally and giving the feeling of the brand and the solution they offer than showcasing the functionality of the product.
Humans in video perform 28% more effectively. Use color and make a splash. If it looks like it was shot with a phone, you're unlikely to grab a new audience or look much different than your cousins sharing their dinner.
CAPTURE ATTENTION.
let's remember the goldfish. if you lose someone after 8 seconds you need to hook them in 3. the main message and solution should appear in this first moment.
remember that 68% of viewers watch video on mute, so be conscious of relying on voiceover. Instead, add SORT, BIG, energetic and actionable text inside your videos themselves.
You came here as writers, now you can confidently leave knowing that your content is invaluable and your execution can include video. You have another tool in your skill set that only you will be the expert of - video content creation.
