The Convergence of Digital Marketing & TV

Video and digital marketing has exploded over the past few years. As brands attempt to reach various demographics, video advertising on all video platforms is key to sales. 

It’s critical for your company to create video assets that perform well on all social media platforms. In the digital world, peers' recommendations are trusted more than celebrities; user generated testimonials have proven to be extremely effective.   

Consumers identify with the real users. User generated testimonials give the consumer honest, unfiltered feedback from peers who share personal experiences and opinions. 

The challenge is to create professional video content with a limited budget. If you’re a brand that markets primarily on digital platforms and are planning for a future TV campaign, you may already have great content for a successful TV commercial. User generated content and social media testimonials often convert into perfect assets when launching a TV commercial. Using these sound bites and/or visuals alongside professional video content will add compelling credibility for your audience. 

Seamlessly blending these video assets is not an easy task to do. It’s important to have the right team of video producers who understand the requirements of the individual platforms to produce your digital marketing needs.

Multi-Camera Shoots to the Masses

Dish Network, previously known for satellite TV, is catching up with the times. In fact, they seem to be trending in the world of online video. While television stations used to be the norm for content consumption, the masses are now turning to the world of online video on YouTube and Facebook.

According to Phys.org, “Dish is unveiling a wireless device, SlingStudio, meant to enable multi-camera productions without high-end equipment. The wireless device collects video from up to 10 smartphones and traditional cameras as they are being shot. An iPad app lets you choose which video and audio feed to broadcast at any given moment. The app also has tools for transitions and text overlay.”

Multi-camera shoots used to be reserved for primetime television, but now there are devices that allow multi-camera shoots right from your own home. At $999, the price tag will cut out your average user, but if you’re a company or influencers looking to make waves in the world of online video, a device like SlingStudio can be an instrumental piece of the content puzzle.

At Concepts TV, we specialize in multi-camera shoots for online video, television, and corporate videos.

Great Ideas > Big Budgets

Television marketers have long relied on a large media spend to get their products in front of the masses. With the advent of social media and online video, brands no longer have to fork over massive amounts of money to be seen. Now, inventors and smaller players have a chance to perform in the mass market.

Social Media

Social media marketing is low cost compared to television advertising. While there are still social media advertisements, the cost of entry is extremely low if not free. For example, if an inventor wants to get their product in front of their target market, they can look to Instagram. If said inventor created a lipstick line that lasts for 8 hours, this inventor or company could target “micro-influencers” to post about the lipstick. These micro-influencers are individuals that have up to 100,000 followers with a highly targeted and engaged audience. If this inventor was to pay 10 micro-influencers, they might spend maximum $10,000. If this inventor were to try to get his or her product on television, they would be looking upwards of $100,000.

Online Video

YouTube and Facebook have been enormously successful online video platforms for digital advertising. While television normally relies on high production value 30 second to 2-minute advertisements, YouTubers tell a relatable story without massive production dollars. While there is no guaranteed formula for a hit, viral videos and online video are much more cost effective than a traditional television advertisement.
