Bio Videos Drive Corporate Revenues Big Time!
A business or organizations success is typically described with facts and figures, profits, year-to-year growth. However, businesses are as successful as their staff. People need to understand why they should invest in your products or services. With video, your organization can show the world your organizations biggest asset, your staff. A head shot with a text bio on your organization’s website has very little impact. However, there is an 88% increase in a Bio’s viewership when a Video Bio is added. Remember, “seeing is believing” and it could not be more accurate with Video Bio.
A Video Bio showcases the individual’s personality, and it is the best way for your business or organization to share the personality of your staff and give viewers a taste of your overall culture and community feel. These details are critical, but the success of an organization also depends on a more abstract factor: emotional investment.
Video Bios connect people to your brand. Seeing the emotions and expressions of your team members, viewers feel a sense of familiarity and trust in your organization. With that emotional investment, you have more people, both internally and externally, supporting your organization and helping it grow. People retain 95% of a video message, as opposed to just 10% of a written message.
A Video Bio is a way for employees to introduce themselves in a professional context, such as an all-hands meeting, conference, on your website, on social media, or via email. It summarizes their key qualities so viewers can get a better sense of their interests, strengths, and more. Besides connecting internal team members in onboarding, these Bio Videos should also be used by anyone to engage with people outside of your organization and build your brand image.
Video Bios are also a powerful way to humanize your brand. Whether viewers are internal employees or potential leads, watching and listing to a team member—their mannerisms, voice, and more—can help your company feel more relatable, familiar, and authentic.
Video Bios can also be utilized in a “Video Signature” on emails and using a QR code on a company or organizations marketing material can be seen by scanning it on a smart phone. People want to see ad hear who they are dealing with before they engage.
Don’t cut corners when creating Video Bios; it should be professionally produced, not an iPhone video. The Video Bio should also utilize the organizations branding. Not only with the staff member emotionally connect with the viewers, the organizations branding it will drive viewers to your organization’s website and will ultimately increase brand awareness and revenues.
Here are a few areas where you can expect to find Video Bios in a business context:
Video Bios make your organization feel more approachable and friendly, so more people—both internally and externally—want to support it, and you.
Sharing employee Video Bios with clients and customers builds their confidence in your team and your organizations products and services.
Sharing Video Bios within your team quickly builds rapport, so everyone feels welcome and excited to work together.
If you’re speaking at a conference, share your video bio with attendees beforehand to build hype around your talk and establish familiarity with the audience.
