When to include video in the sales funnel stages

Top of the sales funnel

If you want to attract or interest customers while generating brand awareness, top of funnel marketing videos are the perfect place to start. These sales funnel videos aim to educate, entertain, and let viewers discover who you are, rather than putting emphasis on making a sale. Showcase the brand mission and goals through promo videos, teasers, and short video trailers.

Middle of the sales funnel

Middle of the sales funnel videos should always aim to give customers useful information and insights that will help them determine their buying decisions. This style of marketing video is usually created in a product demo style, helpful tutorial, or explainer video that’s shared to social media, websites, or brand YouTube channels

Bottom of the sales funnel

The bottom of the sales funnel is the right time to create and share videos that will make your viewers take action and purchase from your brand. Create a lasting impression and form a relationship with your audience by offering limited time offers, exclusive tips, answer frequently asked questions, and say thank you through videos. Many B2B companies use LinkedIn videos specifically to target bottom-funnel MQLs (marketing-qualified leads) and SQLs (sales-qualified leads).

How to create effective marketing videos

Define your campaign objective

Is your intention to generate leads, boost sales, or increase brand awareness? No matter the objective, ensure all video content supports the overall marketing strategy and branding. A clear objective will guide your video creation process.

Create a compelling narrative

Use the storyboard to plan the video storyline to emotionally connect with the audience through entertaining narratives that evoke emotion and build connection. Try to build a connection with your audience and keep them engaged throughout the video with a strong and relatable narrative.  

Leverage social media platforms

Optimize your videos for social media by creating in the right video format, resolution, size, and including engaging thumbnails for YouTube. Customize your content to fit the preferences of users on each platform.

Use high quality assets

High definition videos, clear sound and audio, and engaging graphics like stickers and GIFs will help marketing videos look polished, professional, and impressive. Quality sales funnel videos also reflect brand professionalism and build viewer trust.

Add video captions

Generate AI subtitles to make your marketing videos more accessible to a wider audience, including those who watch without sound or have hearing impairments. Subtitles and transcribing videos also help improve SEO by including searchable text in your videos.
