Marketing teams from a multitude of industries are no strangers to the pains of video content creation. From the tedious task of publishing videos regularly, and the technical complexities of editing, to the alignment of a company’s brand bible, the challenges that marketers, social media managers, and in-house content creators face are becoming increasingly insurmountable.
The surge of video content as a go-to strategy for marketers is brought upon by the evolution of content consumption. Decades ago, a simple text-and-image campaign would suffice, but the face of marketing has undergone a major overhaul after the emergence of commercialized video platforms like TikTok, YouTube, YouTube Shorts, and IG Reels. Simply put, no one likes to read anymore, and the audience's retention of storytelling is proven more effective through videos. According to Forbes, 90% of customers testify that product videos increase their likelihood of purchasing, an unprecedented rate that solidifies video marketing as one of the most efficient tools in optimizing conversion rates by 80%.
Still, the problem lies in the marketing teams’ lack of knowledge and experience in video production, making companies outsource manpower with expertise in After Effects. While this ensures professional touch in transforming in-house media into publish-ready content, its long-term sustainability poses a threat to business overspending. For one, hiring third-party video editors and producers is expensive. On top of that, companies only get to publish limited videos as production takes time. Combining all these factors, a glaring gap in the marketing industry calls for an urgent solution to empower marketing teams with the independence of creating unlimited, premium content without outsourced interference.
