This is a question I believe everyone should be asking themselves. I say this as a coach, entrepreneur, business owner and not to try and get sales.
I am going to refer to a survey by Wyzowl.
Think for a minute,
Where is video applicable on social media?
What platforms use video?
What platforms are video-centric?
Ya, pretty much all of them, or they will be soon.
I do believe we are in a race to the bottom of stupidity with mindless videos, but we can discuss that another time. But it does fall into this from the survey.
nbsp;92 of video marketers feel the level of noise and competition have increased in the last year.
It is the Noise I am referring to above.
Before I get into some real meaty things I want to preface it with this, I see a lot of agents asking about how to brand themselves. I often see questions around
Shopping Carts
Check Out Dividers
Place Mats
Coffee Sleeves
If you do these and they work Id love to talk with you. But, I have never been compelled to buy based upon these. Heck, I do not even notice them. So I would tend to do nothing with them. I have coached and trained many agents and I have never heard of anyone with success doing these.
Take some time to understand the NAR Generational Trends Report.
You will learn in this report that 62-72 of consumers found their agent by
Worked with in the past
Was a friends, neighbor
Was referred by a friend, family member
Or knew them from the community.
The shopping cart was not on the list. Basically, I always go after the Lions Share and that is referrals and networking. Take a look at this.
87 of video marketers say video, in general, gives them a good return on their investment. 84 of video marketers say video has helped them generate leads.
People watch an average of 18 hours of online video per week.
18-49 years old watch more Youtube per week than all of cable combined.
85 of people would like to see more videos from brands in 2021.
Marketers have rapidly come to understand the ROI of video - from just 33 who believed they got a positive ROI from video in 2015, the number now sits at 87.
If you do not have a solid video marketing strategy and a way to positively stand out in the community then you are missing a massive segment of the market and you just blend into the noise of the other 1.5million agents.
How many agents are in your market?
Who stands out?
Who is the most recognized?
Is it you?
If not you are cheating yourself.
People do not do video for 3 main reasons.
Fear
Knowledge
Time
