Viewstream Donates to the “Frontline Responders” Fund Posted by John Assalian on April 6, 2020 During these difficult times, we all can make a difference and come together to help those in need. Viewstream recently made a donation to the “Frontline Responders Fund” to get critical supplies to frontline responders combating COVID-19. There’s a shortage of masks, gowns, gloves and other critical supplies to protect our medical professionals in hospitals across the world. If a member of the hospital staff catches the virus, their health is at serious risk, and they cannot work for at least 14 days. That’s a major problem. Please support this organization: https://www.gofundme.com/f/frontlinerespondersfund Protecting the frontline responders mean more capacity at our hospitals, and more people will get the care they need. We encourage you to donate as well. Stay safe and we will get through this together.

Branded Videos: Add Value to Your Partner Network Posted by John Assalian on March 2, 2020 Quality over quantity. You’ve heard it a thousand times, you’ll hear it a thousand more. But when it comes to content marketing, it’s more than just a banal platitude. It’s the most important factor in setting brands apart, improving engagement and driving revenue. If you have a network of partners, resellers, or agents creating their own marketing materials, the results can be less than desirable. Low-quality content risks being ignored, or worse, alienating potential audiences. Without the appropriate resources and experience, your network could be producing content that fudges quality standards and fumbles key value propositions. Nobody wants that. Almost anyone can create content these days. However, not everyone has the proper tools or expertise to create high-quality content that cuts through the noise and makes an impact. Viewstream Branded Video Service has the skills and resources needed to create high-quality content for your partners, resellers, or agents. Leveraging a fast and efficient algorithmic environment, the Viewstream Branded Video Service produces highly personalized content to make your network’s products and services stand out. With Viewstream leading the creative process, you can improve the marketing capabilities of your network and foster stronger relationships with partners who lack the experience needed to create effective visual content. Take a look at all of our branded video examples and discover the value that these essential marketing assets can provide. Ready to add value to your network by producing impressive marketing materials? Contact Viewstream to learn more and get your branded video today.
What Makes a Premium Explainer Video? Posted by John Holton on June 24, 2019 Explainer videos are an essential marketing and communications option for introducing your company or products to potential customers. However, not all explainer videos are created equal and many miss the mark. Continue reading for five examples of how you can create an engaging explainer video that gets your point across. Get the Length Right A great explainer video grabs your attention and keeps it until the very end. It’s likely that you have quite a lot you’d like to say but try to keep it concise by sticking to the key value propositions. The audience will remember the overall “why” of the video. Communicate what is possible with the solution – keep it short, but no shorter. Make Your Case Early You shouldn’t be waiting until the end of your explainer video to state your key message, even if it’s only a couple minutes long. The longer you wait to tell viewers what the video is about the more likely you are to lose their attention. It’s okay to have an intro where you set the stage or create tension but get to the key value propositions early. Develop a Narrative Despite how short they may be, explainer videos still need a strong story to be compelling, even if the viewer doesn’t realize there is one. Begin by presenting a problem. Then introduce your product as the solution and explain why it will help. Finally, close it out with a strong call to action that lets viewers know what they should do next. Choose the Right Music The choice of music will be critical for driving engagement as it sets the tone for the entire video. What do you want viewers to feel while watching? Excitement? Anxiety? Whatever it may be, choosing the right music is the surest way to get the reaction you’re looking for. Focus on Benefits Try to remember that this isn’t a product demo video. It will be tempting to list off every feature that your product offers, but it’s better to stick to the benefits instead. Benefits are what will resonate the most and compel interested viewers to learn more. A well-made explainer video can be one of the most useful tools for communicating critical information about a company and its products. For some specific examples of great explainer videos, check out Viewstream and our award-winning explainer videos page.
