Should You Pivot Your Video Marketing Strategy?

By  
Eliott Wahba

If you own a smartphone and have a decent internet connection, chances are you’ve shared at least one video or short this week.

It could have been a hilarious blooper, a brand announcement, or—if we’ve done our job—a DolFinContent campaign.
No matter the source, one fact is clear:

Video dominates.

Video Demand Is Exploding

The average person now consumes 17 hours of online video per week.

And it’s not just entertainment.

  • 91% of businesses leveraged video content for marketing in 2024.
  • Video generates 1,200% more shares than text and images combined.

If you’re just now exploring video marketing, you’re late—but not too late.
This is the moment to pivot.

How to Build a Successful Video Marketing Campaign

Not all videos deliver results.
If you want your content to avoid getting lost in an endless feed, here’s your blueprint:

1. Know Your Audience

Segment by:

  • Demographics (age, gender, income, etc.)
  • Location
  • Lifestyle and interests

Once you nail this down, customize your ad delivery to meet the right eyes at the right time.

2. Set Measurable Goals

Decide what success looks like:

  • Views and watch time
  • Clicks and shares
  • Lead conversions
  • Sales

3. Pick the Right Video Type

Educational? Motivational? Entertaining?

Your goals will determine whether you produce:

  • Explainers
  • Testimonials
  • Tutorials
  • Product showcases

4. Optimize for Search

Use SEO best practices:

  • Keywords in titles
  • Optimized video descriptions
  • Captions for accessibility

Pro tip: Optimized YouTube descriptions increase the chance your content lands in the Suggested Videos section.

5. Collaborate With Influencers

Celebrity endorsements? Outdated.
Niche influencers who command trust in specialized audiences yield better ROI—and they’re often more affordable.

6. Tailor Content by Platform

A 3-minute YouTube video isn’t going to perform the same on TikTok or Instagram.

Yes, you can repurpose.
But where possible, custom-create platform-specific versions for better engagement.

7 Benefits of Video Marketing You Can’t Afford to Ignore

1. Boosts Conversion Rates

Adding a video to landing pages can increase conversions by up to 96%.

2. Improves Search Visibility

Videos improve ranking potential on both Google and YouTube.

3. Supercharges Email Marketing

Including video in email marketing can increase click-through rates by 200-300%.

4. Enhances ROI

Videos drive shares, awareness, and—ultimately—sales.

5. Increases User Retention

Web visitors spend 88% more time on sites with video.

6. Expands Reach

90% of viewers now watch on mobile devices.
Your video strategy must prioritize mobile-first content.

7. Strengthens Competitive Edge

Live streaming, in particular, is becoming a must-have for engaging your audience in real time.

3 Video Trends You Need to Leverage in 2025

1. Virtual Reality (VR)

Brands are creating immersive experiences that customers feel.
Example: Outdoor gear brand TrekPath launched a VR trail ride experience in stores to demo its new mountain bikes.

2. 360-Degree Video

Perfect for product showcases, events, or virtual walkthroughs.
Hospitality brand VistaStay now uses 360-degree room tours to drive booking rates.

3. Drone Video

Elevate your storytelling.
Tech firm Skyverge Solutions used drone footage for its “Innovation From Above” campaign to showcase campus-wide smart infrastructure.

Why You Can’t Ignore Video Any Longer

Video is not a nice-to-have.
It’s the core currency of digital engagement in 2025.
