Nine (9) Reasons You Should Be Using Video Email

feature photo

Since the advent of the Internet, people have been connecting with one another in ways that were previously unimaginable.  The popularity of email and instant messaging has changed the way we do business and interact in our personal lives.

Technology is evolving at an ever increasing rate.  It would appear that we have two choices: evolve with it, or be left behind!

Benefits to supplementing your communication toolbox with video email:

1) Improve your relationships with customers, employees, and colleagues
If a picture is worth a thousand word, what is a video worth them?

2) Save time by storing and reusing your videos

The efficiency with which we automate reoccurring tasks has great bearing on the level of success we achieve.  You can record evergreen videos to use repeatedly: happy birthday messages, special thanks from our CEO, don’t forget to sign the back of your application, thanks for shopping with us, etcetera using video email.

3) Add professionalism to your business communications

First impressions are exceptionally important, especially in the business world.  If a potential client’s first impression is your smiling face giving them the information they requested, it will give you the competitive advantage.  Video is a proven relationship builder!

4) It’s just as fast, often even faster, to send a video email over a regular one
We have all heard of the voice-to-text software that is available for people who don’t want to type, it’s not only clunky, it has a very steep learning curve.  Why not send a video? You know how to speak, right?

5) Eliminate confusion when conveying complex ideas
It’s difficult to convey inflection in an email.  Emails are often misunderstood.  It’s unarguable! We have all misread emails and then upon speaking with the person realized our presumption was unfounded.

6) Your clients and friends will appreciate messages from you with a personal touch
Whether you use video email for business or personal ventures, recording a video message is exciting – it’s like being in a movie and your the star! Sending a birthday message using video is a fun way to share in the celebration, especially if you couldn’t be there with them.

7) Track and manage your business
Videos just like emails can be tracked.  Our system allows you to see who is watching your videos.  You can constantly improve the way you market your business by tracking each messages popularity.

8) Custom templates
Email templates with hyperlinks can be created for your business around your video player.  This adds a professional look to your messages and establishes brand loyalty.

9) Provide distance training
Free yourself from the burden of training new employees.  Record a series of training videos and email them to the new guy or gal to bring them up to speed – streamlining your training process has never been so simple.

As you can see, video emails have many advantages over regular email and the phone.  The preceding reasons are just the tip of the spear.  The applications for video email are just being discovered.  One would not be far off the mark if they compared video email to impending .com boom in the early 90′s – destined to be the next big thing!

Add video email into your communication toolbox and start improving the way you interact with people.  Be one of the first to lead the way for the rest!
