Why Video Is the Most Powerful Marketing Tool Right Now 🎬
If you're a business owner who's great at your craft but feels overwhelmed by marketing, you're not alone. I talk to smart, hard-working people every day who say the same thing: “I know my business inside and out—but I don’t know how to market it.” That’s where I come in.
At BARNDANCE, I specialize in building beautiful, high-performing websites—but what’s moving the needle for many of my clients right now is video. In fact, I believe video is the most powerful marketing tool available today. And the best part? You don’t need to be a filmmaker, influencer, or actor to make it work for your business.
Let me break it down for you in simple terms—what makes video so powerful, how you can use it, and the kinds of video production services I offer to help you grow.
Why Video Is So Effective Right Now
1. Video Builds Instant Trust
People do business with people they trust. A well-made video lets your audience see you, hear you, and connect with your message—often within seconds. You can say more with a 30-second video than you could in three paragraphs of text.
2. Video Gets More Attention (And Keeps It)
The average person scrolls through 300 feet of content per day on their phone. That’s the height of the Statue of Liberty. Video stands out. It moves. It talks. It grabs attention in ways still photos and text just can’t.
3. Video Works on Every Platform
From your website homepage to social media, YouTube ads to email campaigns—video fits everywhere. It’s flexible and easy to repurpose. A single video can be trimmed into multiple clips, resized for different platforms, and reused over time.
4. Video Boosts Conversions
Studies show that adding a video to your landing page can increase conversions by up to 80%. That’s not a typo. Video gives people confidence in your brand and helps them make decisions faster.
5. Video Improves SEO
Google loves video. A website with video is 53 times more likely to rank on the first page of Google. When I build websites for my clients, I often recommend adding custom video to give them an SEO edge.
Simple Ways Business Owners Can Use Video
You don’t need a Hollywood budget to start using video in your business. Here are a few straightforward and highly effective ways to put video to work:
đź‘‹ About Us Video
Introduce yourself. Let people hear your voice and see your face. These types of videos work great on homepages and “About” pages.
📦 Product or Service Demos
Show what you do. Whether you sell a product, offer a service, or provide expertise, a demo video helps people understand it instantly.
🙌 Customer Testimonials
Let your happy clients do the talking. Video testimonials are one of the most powerful forms of social proof.
📲 Social Media Reels
Short-form video content like Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and TikToks help your brand stay relevant and visible.
đź“Ť Behind-the-Scenes
Give your audience a peek at how your business operates—whether it’s your shop, your process, or your team.
🎯 Video Ads
Paid video ads can deliver fast results. I help clients plan and produce video content that converts, especially for Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
My Video Production Services 🎥
Here at BARNDANCE, I offer professional video services for business owners who want quality content without the stress. Here's what I can do:
🎬 Brand Story Videos
Every business has a story—let’s tell yours. I help you script, shoot, and edit a compelling brand video that builds trust and connection.
📱 Social Media Video Packages
I create engaging short-form content designed for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts. Perfect for keeping your brand top-of-mind.
🧑‍💼 Testimonial Videos
I’ll help your clients feel comfortable on camera and capture genuine, polished testimonials that sell your business for you.
🏗 Website Header Videos
Instead of a static banner, imagine your site opening with a looping background video that shows what you do in 10 seconds. It makes a big impression.
🎥 Product or Service Explainers
These are great for showing how something works, how it's built, or why it matters. I simplify your offer into an easy-to-understand visual.
✂️ Video Editing Services
Already have footage? I offer clean, professional editing to make your videos look sharp, sound good, and flow well.
đź“… Ongoing Video Content Plans
Want to build a content library over time? I offer monthly plans where we consistently create and publish new videos for your business.
Why My Clients Love Working with Me
Most of my clients are not comfortable on camera—and that’s okay. I’ve designed my video process to be simple, relaxed, and even fun. I guide you through the planning, scripting (if needed), filming, and post-production, so you're never guessing what comes next.
You won’t need to worry about fancy film terms or figuring out what looks good. That’s my job. All you need to do is be yourself.
Don’t Let Video Scare You
Video might feel intimidating at first—but it’s not as hard as you think. The key is to start small, stay consistent, and work with someone who knows how to make the process smooth and effective.
If you’re already running a business, managing customers, and putting out fires every day, you don’t need one more thing on your plate. That’s where I step in. Let me handle the video, so you can focus on what you do best.

If you're thinking about adding video to your marketing but don’t know where to begin, reach out to me. I’ll answer your questions, give honest recommendations, and help you decide what kind of video makes sense for your goals.
