5 video hacks to try today

Let's face it, we're all guilty of scrolling through our phones in bed, mindlessly consuming video after video. It's easy, it's satisfying, and it's a habit that's only getting stronger. 💪 

📌 According to a Statista study, a whopping 77% of us use smartphones or tablets to watch online videos. And Facebook says it's 1.5x more likely for people to watch video every day on a smartphone than on a computer.

So, if you're not already using video marketing, it's time to jump on the bandwagon! Let's dive into some hacks to help you create engaging and effective videos:

1️⃣ Leverage AI-generated scripts 📃 

Don't be afraid to let AI be your creative partner. Tools like Insight Voice can generate engaging scripts based on a few simple insights and prompts. Combine this with your unique brand voice to create content that's both creative and efficient.

2️⃣ Embrace the Power of ASMR 🎙️ 

ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) videos have gained immense popularity in recent years. Incorporate subtle auditory and visual elements into your videos to create a calming and satisfying experience for your viewers. This could include soft-spoken narration, close-up shots of textures, or gentle background sounds.

5️⃣ Utilize User-Generated Content 📱 

Encourage your audience to create their own videos using your products or services. This not only generates free content but also fosters a sense of community and loyalty. Feature the best submissions in your own videos or on a dedicated page on your website.
