Tip #4: Technical Considerations for Your Marketing Video

Do these little technical details correctly.

  • Put a play button on the player, so people know this is a video and not just an image. You’ve got to continue the conversation with your prospects before they’re bored again.

  • Put the length of the video into the player or next to it, so people know if it is 1 minute, 20 minutes, or 1 hour, and can make a decision to watch it or not.

  • Do NOT put the video on auto play. Allow people to play and pause the video as they wish.

  • Have a volume control button. People hate it when they can’t control the sound.

  • Put your video on YouTube and embed the code into your web site page instead of putting hosting it yourself. This will let people share it easily.
