3 Ways Professional Video Production Helped Businesses reach Their Brand goals
Harnessing the power of video is more than just a trend; it's a strategic move for businesses aiming to elevate their brand. From in-depth documentaries to dynamic digital marketing pieces and innovative podcast tools, let's explore three distinct ways video is reshaping the branding landscape.
Example 1: Video Documentary for a Brand
In 2019 and 2022 Archer ATR worked to produced a documentary-style video for the launch of the newest LNB bank location in Farmington, NY. A well respected regional bank, LNB identified the historic Hathaway home as a potential location for a new branch.
But instead of simply clearing the land and building anew, they worked closely with the town, the Hathaway family, and local builders to preserve the building and give it a new life.
This presented a perfect opportunity for a video documentary that could highlight the banks commitment to bettering the community. And, working closely with the LNB marketing team, our production crew documented everything from the site selection and build, to meetings with the Hathaway family, and conversations with the town historian.
In the end the piece highlighted the history of the Hathaway home, the bank's efforts to preserve it, and the many local vendors they engaged to make it happen. Documentaries like this help build brands, and in the end LNB effectively used video to capture an great of example of how their brand is all about people, and an anvid supporter of all things local.
Example 2: Mutli-Platform Promotional Tool
One great thing about video and media platforms of today, is the tremendous amount of flexibility they provide.
Quicklee's Convenience Stores, a regional convenience store chain with 30+ locations, approached us about creating videos for their new, state-of-the-art touch screen fuel pumps.
Quicklee’s goal, to create video that highlighted the stores offerings, featured team members, and helped generate in-store revenue.
These videos not only highlighted products and store features but also strategically promoted revenue-generating ads. A pivotal aspect of this project was discerning the right promotional mix and seizing the chance to establish a rich content repository for upcoming store pumps.
In the end we helped Quicklee’s obtain Sandy Waters, a respected radio personality as a brand ambassador, we then featured her in videos and ads that now appear on pumps across several key locations and all across social media.
And soon, these videos will be adapted for use on older pump screens, once again showing the flexibilty and versatility of well planned and executed professional video production.
Example 3: Enhanced Podcasts with Engaging Visuals
Archer ATR collaborated with renowned infectious disease specialist Dr. Bill Valenti to produce a series of videos for his Just Sayin' podcast, which focuses on LGBTQ+ health.
The series featured interviews with medical professionals, historians, entertainers, and more. Episodes included visits from Monroe County Commissioner of Public Health, Dr. Michael Mendoza and area drag star and performer Aggy Dune.
In addition to the actual production and editing of content, we worked with Dr. Valenti to launch the actual Just Sayin’ podcast series, transforming it from a traditional audio format to a multimedia platform that includes video, audio, and blog content covering vital topics.
Dr. Valenti recognized the importance of documenting the stories, thoughts, and feelings of the community he loved. For him the return on investment wasn’t monetary based. It was the preservation of thoughts, and ideas, and video played a key role in helping him achieve that.
