Top 10 reasons to be video interviewed
If you are a CEO or founder of a startup, why should you get video interviewed?
1. Publicity for your company - When your video interview is posted on websites such as Youtube, Seesmic, and Vimeo people will find it and watch it without a doubt. You will also be putting a face and personality to your company and brand that will help customers and clients get a better understanding of who they are doing business with. Also, seeing someone in person helps build trust, which is the most valuable aspect of closing a sale.
2. Inbound links to your website - When your interview gets put on video websites it will undoubtedly also be picked up by bloggers, journalists, and other media and PR folks. This will occur because if someone is looking to get information about you or your company and they perform a web search your video will come up in the results. Then when people in the press write about you on their website, and hopefully post your video, they will link back to your website. Inbound links are the single most important factor when it comes to ranking high in search results.
3. Content about your company and products/services - When your video is picked up in the media and by bloggers they will also write about your company and products/services. This will also drive web traffic to your company and website because the keywords that are being written about will also appear on your website.
4. People like video - People like to learn and be engaged in different ways. Some people like to read text, some like diagrams, and some like to just sit back and listen.
5. Free video - Most companies that will perform a CEO or Founder interview will do so for free, and also give you the raw video file. We are one of those companies, please feel free to contact us if you would like to get interviewed at http://altabulator.com
6. Networking - When other CEOs and Founders see your video interview they feel more comfortable getting in touch with you to discuss anything from partnerships to speaking engagements at industry events.
7. Social Media Marketing - Video is viral and easy to spread by simply posting a link or embedding the video into blogs or websites. Your video interview can appear on some of the most popular social networks very quickly, such as: Youtube, Digg, Del.icio.us, Twitter, Facebook, etc.
8. Industry Expert Status - When others in your industry are looking for someone with expertise in your field you can show them your interview as proof of your status.
9. Training - Seeing yourself on video talking about your company will help you become more self aware about the messages you are telling your clients and customers. It is pretty eye opening, after seeing themselves on video many people say, "Is that what I sound like?"
10. Fun and a good learning experience
