Last year, a survey of 3800 marketers discovered that 76% of them planned to increase their budgets for video content. And Cisco predicted that in 2013, 90% of all internet traffic will be video. Your competitors and your customers are both using more video content. Are you?
If you've made video a priority, you're likely trying to determining what kind of ROI you can expect to earn on video, and and what that means for your production values. What lengths are ideal for your purpose? When (and why) should you use YouTube, Vimeo, Vine, or white-label solutions?
Join us as we discuss these and other topics:
How to plan video-friendly marketing efforts
Getting your videos seen and shared: strategies to achieve high view count and spreading your content far and wide
Choosing the content creators who understand your voice and what will connect with your audience
