Take Advantage of YouTube
Videos are a great way to differentiate your business and stand out among your competitors online. YouTube is no longer regarded as just an entertainment site, it has grown into an invaluable business resource. With some time and creativity, your videos can open new opportunities for your small business that would make a Fortune 500 company cringe with envy. Whether it’s informational videos about how to use your newest equipment or training videos for your staff, YouTube is an easy and effective way to grab the attention of your audience.
1) It is Free
Unlike television ads or radio spots YouTube, and for the most part social media, is free. To become a visible entity on the web it takes time and effort, not money and connections like in traditional media. This medium can be leveraged so a small start up has the same potential to go viral as a more recognized brand, and that can happen very quickly with videos. Videos and images are some of the most shared, seen, and circulated pieces of content on the internet. With a simple click users can re-post something to their personal social media accounts and from there on, it spreads like wildfire.
Using YouTube for small business increases your target audience and marketing abilities with no real cost to you. YouTube is the most watched website for videos and your YouTube channel is like having a second website without the cost of hosting and upkeep.
2) Drive Sales
Small business can use YouTube to promote their products and services to gain more valuable leads. A video on YouTube is a great referral and call back to your home website. Your video can be seen by many people, optimized, and shared through different social media tools like Facebook and Twitter. Because each video will have specific keywords or tags associated with it, it will be found by those looking for you and your products via popular search engines.
It’s also interesting to note that Google, which owns YouTube, has about 70% of the search engine market. When you use Google to search, you also have the option to view “images”, “maps”, “videos” etc. Ever notice how every video through Google brings you to YouTube? It’s powerful medium to showcase your products and gain valuable leads that are already in your target audience.
3) SEO
As I mentioned, a YouTube Channel is like having a second site and lends room for you to describe your company, the products, and the services you provide. Along with your YouTube channel, you can describe each video individually with tags to optimize them and attract the kind of viewers you actually want. Tagging your videos for SEO purposes will give you the advantage of being found in a general search.
4) Huge Audience
YouTube is hugely popular right now and it’s grown dramatically in recent years. According to a study, 300 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute! But, only 9% of U.S. small businesses use YouTube! There is a large, available market out there that is mostly untapped!
YouTube is a search engine just like Google or Bing and is used by viewers to find useful tutorials, explanation videos, and product reviews. By creating useful videos on YouTube for small business promotion, you gain access to a much wider audience.
5) Product Support
Provide your customers with useful videos on the most common problems and questions they have about a product or system. This will reduce your company’s support costs and empower your customers to troubleshoot their own problems. Educational videos are a great way to bridge a gap between you and your customers, and allow them to learn going forward. A video tutorial on the proper usages of your products beats a convoluted directions page on your website any time. They can watch and pause as they’re assembling as well — all with free YouTube videos.
