Are your video marketing campaigns ticking all the right success boxes?

Whether you’re a new Sydney video production company or have been around for a while, measuring the success or failure of a video marketing campaign will tell you if your video production strategies are working, or whether something needs to change. These changes can be big or small, but gathering that data will only help you grow your business and better engage with your audience.

Moving Beyond the Hype: Why Measuring Video Campaign Success Matters

Sometimes, video production companies receive plenty of media coverage of a particular video or campaign, or their campaign receives millions of views on YouTube. Still, that initial hype doesn’t necessarily mean the video production will enjoy long-term success. Here’s why taking the long view, complete with data and metrics matters.

Tracking ROI

Returns on investment are the principal way that you can track the success or failure of your video marketing campaign. If you see an increase in your sales figures in the days and weeks following the release of your video production, then it’s likely that your video is contributing to those sales and you’re already seeing a return on investment.

Refining Your Strategy

You can measure how users and viewers of your video production interact with it. Do they move on to buy something from your website? Are they only spending a few seconds on the video before clicking away? Or are you keeping them engaged throughout? By using user data, you’ll be able to refine your strategy to target a wider audience or to keep audiences engaged for longer.

Optimising Your Content for Australians

Who will be viewing your video production? Mostly Australians. It’s important you tailor your production to suit Australians. Use Australian phrases and wording when writing your video script, or make cultural references that Aussies will understand and connect with. By personalising your content to connect with Aussies, you’re far more likely to sell your product or service to Aussies. Also, if you hire an Australian video production company, that’s a bonus to most Australians who love to support locals.

Using Data to Make Decisions

Data drives decision-making in the marketing world. Use the data you gather about audience behaviours to tailor your next video production to capture an even wider audience. By using real data points, you eliminate guess work and make better decisions about how your end product should look.

The Metrics That Matter: Essential Data for Australian Video Marketing Campaigns

Long-term success in video marketing isn’t just about going viral once. It’s about establishing your brand or business as an authority figure on a topic, subject or product and using the power of video marketing to connect with your audience and sell your products or services.

Here are a few key data points to consider when planning your next video production.

It’s Not All About Views

Viral videos might have you thinking that the key to successful video marketing is your view count. While views do (obviously) play a role, many other key metrics indicate a positive ROI on corporate video production.

Engagement Metrics

Your engagement metrics will tell you how well your video is performing far more than a simple view count. Metrics like watch time and completion rate indicate how long someone has watched your video and whether they watched it till the end. Additionally, your clickthrough rate (CTR) will tell you how many people took action after watching your video; this is an important metric to keep track of.

Audience Demographics

You’ll be able to see who’s watching your videos in an audience demographic breakdown. Is your intended target audience tuning in, or is it a different audience? If it’s the latter, then why? Adjust your content to match your target audience better in your next video production.

Traffic Sources

Traffic source data tracks where your views are coming from: websites, social media posts, etc. This will help you understand if your video marketing techniques have a positive effect, or if something needs to change.

Why Professional Video Production Should Matter To Your Campaign

If you want to make your video marketing campaign stand out from the crowd, hire a video production service in Sydney. It is possible to DIY your company’s video production, but hiring a video production agency with an army of experts in camera work, lighting, audio capture, video editing and storytelling will set your video campaigns apart from your DIY competitors.

High Production Value

Video production services aren’t often just one guy with an iPhone. These companies have invested thousands in cameras, lenses, lighting, microphones, software and other equipment to increase production value. While it is possible to shoot an ‘okay’ video using just an iPhone, professional video production equipment adds to the ‘wow factor’ with your audience and makes your video production stand out from the crowd.

Compelling Storytelling

While video production companies do all the camera work, they also are staffed by creative people who know how to tell a story. Whether you’re looking for a gentle story that’s heartwarming to sell a food product, or a hard-hitting piece that makes the viewer think, video production agencies have the creativity to craft compelling stories that perfectly suits your campaign goals.

Technical Expertise

Professional video production agencies have the time, talent and technical expertise to handle video editing, splicing, audio synchronising, lighting and all other technical aspects of video camera work to ensure that you receive a fantastic finished product that engages with your audience and keeps them coming back.

Consistent Branding

Developing a brand means producing consistent results time after time. You live and die by consistency in your products. If you’re known to produce consistently stunning video productions complete with well-crafted stories and gorgeous visual appeal, audiences will return to see what’s next.
