Can video enhance your sales efforts? With the right tools and resources, you’ll find video can help to minimize at least some of your workload as a sales professional while also allowing you to reach your ideal customer a bit more effectively. Here are a few key examples.
Use Video to Educate In the Sales Process
Used at the right time, video can help to significantly enhance the sales process. It can work to help educate the buyer on a product or service right when they are making the decision to buy. Remember, people are buying more than just a product – they are buying a living or an attitude. Let your video showcase what your product can do for them.
Video Tells You How Engaged Your Customer Is
Another key way to see a significant improvement in your marketing efforts is to use video as a way to understand where your customer is in the buying process. For example, with video, you can see where they are getting stuck in the process. You can determine just how interested they are by noting how far they go in the process of watching or sharing your videos. This can help you to put more of your attention into the most likely customers to buy from you.
Use Video to Minimize Wasted Time
You know that at some point during the buying process, the customer has to engage with you. Yet, it can seem frustrating when you are working with the wrong people who really never had the intention of buying. One way to reduce some of this frustration is by incorporating video into the sales process. If – and until – the prospective buyer clicks on the video or interacts with the video, you don’t invest any additional sales efforts into that buyer. In short, until the prospect takes some action, you minimize the amount of time you invest in that particular individual.
Video does more than just tell others about your products and services. It also helps you to know where your potential buyer is at any stage of the buying process. This insight allows you to make better sales and marketing decisions for your customers.
