In this episode…Video storytelling is a powerful tool that can help businesses attract their desired target audience. But what makes video case stories an effective growth strategy?
Brand marketing expert Ian Garlic explains that video narratives with compelling story arcs allow businesses to connect with their customers on a personal level. Empathic stories can persuade people to act, such as donating to a worthy cause. Ian advises interviewers to sit down with their subjects and have a meaningful conversation when creating dynamic videos. Although emailing the interviewee a questionnaire to answer is time-efficient, it’s impossible to determine a story angle in this way. Before producing a video feature, it’s essential to have goals in mind, such as why you want to interview the individual, what information you want to gather, and the intended platform.

Ian explains the mere-exposure effect, the difference between video stories and testimonials, proven methods to create effective narratives, and why YouTube is imperative to scale a business.
