Marketing Statistics and Video Production

Marketing is essentially getting the word out about your company or organization to people who want to know about you. When it comes to marketing in general, it used to be that you should automatically pounce onto the local newspaper and nationwide magazine companies because you had to buy an ad somewhere immediately. Since then, we’ve left print advertising for the most part. Today, we use the Internet for our primary source of finding companies. As time has gone by, we’re moving slowly from TV advertising (commercials), to web video marketing.

Online video marketing is more effective than most other forms of advertising mostly due to the technological advancements that have come along. Thanks to Google’s data mining algorithm, websites will have ads specifically driven to your personal interests, which leads to more click-throughs. Targeting your demographic is automatic, saving you that extra step.
