Okay content is easy. Killer content is hard. This nifty eBook shows you the difference, based on our real-world work with dozens of brands. A must-read!
Dana Fugate, Director of Content at Brightcove, joins the Content Pros Podcast to discuss how video content marketing is transforming the customer experience, from conversion to retention.
On the surface, video content production appears to be a whole new medium that requires training, equipment, and an eye for visual art. Some would even call it a specialty field of marketing unto itself.
Dana disagrees with this impression and knows how to incorporate video into a marketing plan so that it’s approachable, impactful, and (most importantly) effortless for everybody involved.
Video has a way of connecting with consumers that text on its own cannot accomplish. This, combined with the rise in mobile video consumption, means that smartly applying video on your site can help you connect on a deeper level with your buyer no matter where they are.
Through thoughtful prep and an awareness of the customer’s journey, Dana has helped some of her clients to double their conversions and achieve 70% retainment by properly utilizing video content throughout the sales funnel.

“A lot of times what you’re building on your home page is not just a single video that sits there, it’s how do you build that experience and what experience do you want people to have. It’s more than tossing a video into a player and calling it a day.” —@DanaFugate1
“Each piece of interactivity is a data point that’s going to give you more information about your buyer.” —@DanaFugate1
As a kid, Dana was keen on becoming a star. Specifically, a musical theatre star. Instead of singing in front of the audience and their cameras, she shifted to production and being creative behind the scenes.
