Small Law Firm Marketing - Youtube!

YouTube Has a Far Reach and Less Competition Than Google. Get Started on Your Video Marketing!

If you've been reading up on content marketing lately, it's likely that video marketing has crossed your mind. And that's a good thing! Video marketing has less competition among legal keywords on YouTube and other video content providers in comparison to trying to go for pure textual SEO on Google. As an added benefit, creating videos that can help your audience will ultimately bolster your visibility among viewers and help you obtain new clients. With that in mind, here are some tips and tricks you can use to make compelling video content and utilize your social media marketing apparatus to promote them.

Keep It Simple

It's not necessary to create any sort of revolutionary video content to appeal to potential clients and customers. Just answer questions that you've heard or think they might have. If you're shy in front of the camera or don't know exactly what you're doing with video, start out slowly and build from there. After you feel more comfortable doing video, you should work together with someone that has video experience to release and promote those videos on a more frequent basis. Whatever type of schedule you choose—whether weekly, bimonthly or even monthly—make sure that it’s consistent and released on a schedule.

Be Your Authentic Self

You may have heard that you should always be yourself, and when making videos it’s doubly true. It will be very obvious to your viewers if you are trying to be someone or something that you are not. Instead, focus on showing off your legal firm's personality and specialization or niche in your video content. It's much easier to make engaging videos when you are transparent and can actually talk at length to the legal issues at hand.

Be Budget Conscious

There's no reason to break the bank on expensive filmmaking equipment or fancy editing software. In fact, there are plenty of other platforms aside from YouTube that you can use for video marketing. For example, Snapchat has become very popular for brands, and has over 100 million daily active users and more than 700 million snaps sent per day.

Regardless of what platform you use, YouTube will likely prove the most substantive and is where you should house the majority of your videos. Due to people’s limited attention spans and the desire to consume content quickly, it is best that you make your videos short and sweet. There is no reason why any one of your videos should last more than a few minutes, as any more will cloud the message you want to get across.

If you follow these tips, and use video marketing to its fullest, your legal firm will get on the map of YouTube in your specific legal specialization or niche. This will increase your subscriber account and ultimately help you drive traffic to your website so that potential clients and customers can take a look at the numerous legal services that you offer.
