Kirsten QuinnVideo, Visual Marketing

Want to set the curve on video marketing in Santa Clarita? Here’s why a SchlickArt Business Video Session should be at the front of your marketing strategy.

Lots of people talk about adding video to their marketing strategy, but few understand exactly why it helps or how to use it. You’re right to trust your gut on this one. But if you want to understand why video marketing works, as well as how we make it work at SchlickArt, read on.

Why Use Video Marketing In Santa Clarita?

Today, consumer decisions are heavily influenced by what they can, or can’t, see on the internet and social media. Yet research shows, among all the content fighting for our attention on a daily basis — visuals win. In fact, our brain processes visuals 60,000 times faster than text, according to Web Marketing Group. Better yet, people retain 65% of visual content, as compared to 10% of written content alone.

Not only are visuals the first thing your audience sees, but they’re also the last thing your audience will remember. As they say, you only get one first impression, and in today’s saturated digital market, you better make it count.

  • Video increases the likelihood of a purchase.

Why Choose A SchlickArt Business Video Session?

We do things a little differently, when compared to video marketing in Santa Clarita and beyond. In a SchlickArt Business Video Session, our goal is twofold: 1) to discover your why — the true reason you do what you do, and 2) to help you connect with your audience through the authentic storytelling of that message on video. We believe this approach not only allows you to connect with your audience, but it does so in a way that generates lasting, loyal client relationships.

How? Switch gears with me for a minute. Think of yourself as the client, and let’s consider how we make purchasing decisions. Today, when we begin researching a product or service, we are confronted by so many choices that we no longer need to make decisions based on logic alone (i.e. physical location, accessibility, budget, etc.). There are a million ways to get things done, so when it comes down to finally making that purchase, it’s our gut that makes the decision. It’s an emotional choice!

That’s why telling your story is so important in today’s market. We are all telling stories, every day. In fact, we’re all chasing stories — who we want to be, what we want to accomplish, how we want to be remembered. We make decisions based on these stories. We buy based on who we want to be — not who we are now. So your story helps potential clients see who they can be, with your help. It invites them to move forward in their own story, using your business.

Bottom line: Storytelling is the emotional element your client is looking for in order to pull the trigger.
