A Quick Guide for Video Marketing for Beginners
What is Video Marketing?
Video Marketing refers to the use of video to market or promote your brand or offering on digital channels. In simple terms, when you use video to market your brand, product, or service, engage on social media channels, educate your prospective and current customers, and interact with them, you’re said to be using video marketing.
Types of Videos
There are different formats of video you can choose to market your product. Here are a few different types:
Explainers
Vlogs or live
Interviews
Presentations
Product reviews
Demos
Video ads
YouTube is the most popular video-sharing platform for marketers, with 89 percent of them planning on using it in 2021. By now, I am sure it has been increased even more.
Therefore, I explain YouTube Video Marketing here.
Optimizing for Search & Tracking Results
The title of your video needs to be specific and value-oriented. You need to remember that this is not just something that people are finding via your brand channel, but also something that they will find on the web.
Descriptions are really important and should include keywords. They are going to be aimed at both search engines and consumers so you can’t just make a list of keywords.
YouTube’s keyword tool can help you find keywords across all of your content and you can use it to help you think of new ideas for topics and link them with your blogs and other content as well as use it to create video ads
You can use Google Analytics to understand more about how your videos are performing, who is watching them, and a whole lot more. This is also a great way to get a solid understanding of what social channels your videos are performing the best, and where they are being shared. Keep everything on record and always be using it to refine your strategy.
This is called YouTube SEO, like Google SEO.

Video Promotion
Step #1 - Cross-Platforms Promotion:
Promote on other platforms like blogs (embed video on the relevant pages), share on Facebook pages/groups, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.
Step #2 - Build an Email List
Build an email list and then use it to promote your videos.
I recommend creating lead magnets to build an email list.
In short, you’re giving them free value in exchange for an email like this.
Step #3 - Use the permission technique on social media
Let your audience know that you published a new video and if they want to see it, tell them to say “DM” in the comment section. Then send the link to every person who requests it (example).
Step #4 - Reinvest Your Earnings
Reinvest some amount of your YouTube AdSense or other types of earnings you gained from video marketing into advertising. Or you can just invest straight away on paid promotions to get more views and grow fast.
