1. Develop a Plan
Video marketing is not only great in terms of ROI financially, but will see an increase in brand awareness. To see great results we recommend starting out by allocating your budget. Floundering everything you have on one piece of content, wouldn't be the best idea. To avoid placing other functions of your business in harms way, set the amount your company has to spend aside.
Always plan before taking action, its essential to be realistic about what you are trying to achieve:
Think about ways you can create effective content, which can be dissected into many pieces of value. This will save you time and give you multiple pieces of content to be targeted to your audience.
Consider how many videos you realistically aim to create per month. ( If you require creative strategy, get in touch).
Any journey needs defined goals. Write down what you aim to achieve and track your progress.
Think about the social platforms you will choose to promote your videos. (eg. Using LinkedIn to target a more corporate audience, may be more beneficial than TikTok).
2. Know your Target Audience

Paying close attention to the behaviour of your audience, will help you create a digital profile. Considering the demographics and studying how much of a population, within your chose area use Snapchat. Is a good indicator wether your marketing strategy will be effective.
