Embrace the new normal: How remote video content is revolutionising marketing strategies

The rise of remote video content

Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, businesses, organisations, and individuals have had to adjust to the reality of remote work and virtual communication. And while this has been a significant shift, it has also brought about many opportunities.

One of these opportunities is the rise of remote video content. Video communication platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and applications like Loom have become essential tools for businesses and individuals. They have enabled us to continue to connect and record videos even when we can't be in the same physical space.

The advantages of remote video content

Remote video content has become a powerful marketing, education, and entertainment tool. Companies and individuals use Zoom, Teams and Loom to create podcasts, explainer videos, industry insights, thought leadership content, company announcements, training, and delivering the latest news.

Remote video content is now an essential part of any successful marketing strategy. More is needed to rely on traditional marketing materials such as print ads or billboards. With more people spending time online and working from home, remote video content has become a critical way to reach and engage with your audience.
