Read on to find out how using video for your building products business can benefit you…


Why Should My Building Product Business Use Video?

The consumption of video is growing rapidly, not only does it attract a larger market, but it also engraves the information in viewers minds in a timely manner.

In fact, viewers retain 95% of a video message when they watch a video, compared to when they read a piece of text.

This showcases an opportunity for you to get ahead of your competitors and to utilise video to get your message across to an audience that prefers video messages.

With all this in mind… are you wondering how to get started for your construction marketing?



Time-Lapse Videos

The building product industry is one that involves time for a process to be completed. The time-lapse video technology allows you to speed up the evolution of a slow-moving process without compromising any valuable necessities to the project.

This technique is ideal for the building products industry because specifiers and architects can quickly see the evolution and benefits to your products or service by watching the evolution.

For example, if a commercial window cleaner made a time-lapse video – they’ll be able to show the process of windows going from dull and dirty to pristine and complimenting the building well.


Testimonial Videography

You can utilise videography within your construction marketing with testimonial videos. Nothing reflects the success of building products business like testimonial videos.

Testimonial videos are great because reputation is critical, video implementation will display elements of authenticity and trust because specifiers will be able to visually see an individual talking.

Tutorial Videos

Quick how-to or a FAQ video is a great way to answer questions specifiers may have or to demonstrate how to install a product.

These videos can also display a human and authentic touch throughout your brand to promote feelings of trust.



Conclusion
