Which Way to Brand Video is Right for You?
Posted by vitomy on July 31, 2011 0 Comments

Every small business needs as much help as it can get for brand recognition. Larger companies that have the benefit of years of branding efforts tend to easily outshine smaller, lesser known companies and products, and the competition with similar small businesses is always fierce. For these and other reasons, small businesses need to be strategic with their branding efforts. Since it plays a role in determining whether or not that small business will eventually become a big business, the stakes are pretty high.
This is why getting a custom video player is so vitally important for every small business brand. Just having a video player will attract more people to your website and provides a means of showcasing your best marketing video content, but the benefits of using a generic video player can’t compare to those generated by a custom branded player. While a generic player looks like nothing more than a bare bones video player, a custom player includes various features that heighten the video watching experience and allows you to add branding and action to the equation. It also lets you go about branding in a few different ways.
If you want your branding efforts to be subtle yet consistent, you might want to go for a standard box with a small logo. Putting this onto your Vitomy player is made super simple with drag and drop tools. Just upload the image of your logo to the player, and then use the drag and drop tools to move it to where you think it will work best. This strategy could work best for small businesses that are already well established.
If you want to use an image of a specific product or service relevant to your company, then you might do well with uploading such an image to the player and then using drag and drop tools to place it where it will always be seen by people watching your video content. This strategy might work best for the small business that deals with one main product, or a product that is memorable because of its unique character.
The small business looking to introduce its brand and make a big first impression on as many people as possible might want to use the company logo as the background template for the player. That way, it always stands out as the biggest part of the player and will be seen by viewers at all times because they can’t not look at it every time they watch a video.
