Upgrade Your Online Video Content with Wenning Branding

in , ,

The world of social media is rapidly changing every day. Gone are the days of engaging your audience with a bunch of images. We have been online for too long and need something else to grab our attention! Statistically, static images do not receive as much engagement as videos. That means these days: video content is king in online marketing. 

Why Do You Need Video Content?

Having high-quality and eye-catching visual content is a vital component to the success of any advertising or marketing campaign. In every industry, video content is the way to bolster your online advertising game.

Studies have shown that people in any target audience group are more likely to engage with video content than static advertisements. Clients can tell when you have been using the same video content for years. It is easy for a video to look outdated and they will not engage anyone. 

But what do you do if you have no experience with video production? 

That’s Where We Come In!

Video production can be costly and takes time and resources to get right. That is why you should leave it to the professionals! With all of our years of experience, we at Wenning Branding know a thing or two about what makes a great and engaging video. 

Our team of professional video editors has experience in creating and marketing videos for a wide array of different types of businesses. We know what it takes to engage customers and clients from the first second they scroll to your video. 

There is no better way to organically increase your brand awareness than posting exciting and engaging videos that display your products or services. Find out how to upgrade your media presence online and boost your engagement with fun and unique videos from Wenning Branding!

Go above and beyond all of your competition at your next trade show with an updated booth from Wenning Branding!

The importance of a good setup

How can we help?

We are here to help you stand out at your next tradeshow with a custom-made booth. We will help you tailor your booth to make sure you stop traffic. Whether you need a new simple banner sign or you’re looking to overhaul your whole display, we’ve got you covered.

Back To Work After the Holidays

in

This Monday, we are all back to work after the holidays! And we all know that this is the weirdest work week of the year.  It’s hard to know what to do in this limbo between Christmas and the New Year. No one wants to start any new projects before the new year but, you still need to get stuff done.

Instead of having a week full of busywork, take a look back on the progress your business made this year and look forward to setting goals for 2022!

Reflect

Looking back on 2021 may seem overwhelming at first. Auditing each and every part of your business is a large task. But, since this is a relatively uneventful week for most businesses, it’s the perfect time of year to conduct these unbiased examinations and evaluations. Break up all of your tasks over this week so the work is less daunting! 

There is a lot to be done. Run your financial report to put together a profit and loss statement. Take inventory of your goods and reevaluate your fulfillment process. Evaluate your website and social media presence. And most importantly, make a list of all that your business accomplished this past year!

Set New Goals

Every new year we set new high-flying goals for ourselves. But we also all know how easy and common it is to fall back into old patterns with ourselves and, the same is true for businesses. To create goals that your business is more likely to complete, base them on the progress and setbacks you had in this past year.

Create realistic and achievable goals for your business and watch yourself meet them. To make each high-level goal seem more attainable, break them down into steps to take every month and week. That way you do not get overwhelmed by only looking to the big goal. 

So, as this week in holiday limbo starts, take a look back and look towards the future. Finish the year strong by knowing exactly where you’ve been and where you’re going next year!

Holidays at the Office

Christmas is the perfect time of year to show some appreciation to your hard-working employees, especially after the year everyone has had! But, how do you make the holidays special while still in the office?  

Holiday Party Inspiration

Even with the pandemic still on our minds, you can still throw a fun office holiday party. So, get everyone out of the office! Try ax-throwing, escape rooms, or take over a bar or restaurant.

You can select your time, and your group will have areas, rooms, and possibly, the whole place to yourselves!

Take Charge During the Christmas Shopping Season

in , ,

We have two weeks until Christmas! That means businesses everywhere are about to get a stream of last-minute shopping orders. While more orders and new customers are always welcome, this time of year can be overwhelming, especially for small businesses. So what is the best way to not only deal with the holiday rush but take advantage of it to benefit your business?

Promotions For Early Shoppers

The best way to get shoppers in the door and on your website is through deals! Think outside of the box! If you want to break up the crowds, offer promotions that run only for the week before Christmas. That way, you will be able to set out specific deals for early-bird shoppers.  This is a great way to ensure that you do not overwhelm your business the week of Christmas. BOGO deals and percents off individual services or whole shopping carts are perfect for this time of year!

Fulfillment

With a higher volume of orders, the closer we get to the holidays, there is always a concern about fulfillment. Make sure to keep your inventory stocked up for the season and well managed. This means getting the logistics of your delivery service and your customer relations department are in order and ready for the rush.

Use Your Social Media Platforms

A great way to incorporate the previous tips into your holiday plan is to include them on your social media platforms. Advertise your promotions on your profiles. Issue updates on your fulfillment process. Your social media accounts are a great resource so use them!

To effectively take advantage of the holiday shopping season, you need to get your business ahead of the rush and keep organized all the way through it.

What To Do After Black Friday

in ,

This year’s biggest weekend for holiday shopping is in the books! Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday are over, and now it is back to business as usual. If you followed our tips all this month, you have a solid set of new clients and have reached many new customers. But you might be asking yourself: now what do you do? 

Follow Up Communication

The key to building lasting relationships with the clients and customers that you got this weekend is to follow up with them! Keep in regular contact with them. There are tons of ways to go about this. Take the emails that you gathered and put together and put out an email blast. Follow up with the people that have ordered from you or booked your service directly with information on timelines or just a quick “thank you.” Get active on social media with daily posts! Whichever method you choose, make sure to show your appreciation to your clientele. 

Focus On Fulfillment

This year has seen some of the most struggles, especially for small businesses, in terms of fulfillment ability. More and more people prefer ordering their holiday gifts and booking services online. But there are worker shortages and limited supply runs. This season there is a higher demand than there are supplies to fill it. 

So, focus your efforts on your fulfillment process. Delays are bound to happen, and there is only so much you can do about it. Make sure that you are setting realistic expectations for your company from the beginning. When issues come up that are out of your control, the best course of action is to communicate with your clientele. This will give your customers and clients more confidence in your capabilities.

The Bottom Line

The best way to build relationships with new clients that you connected with over this weekend is by communicating, fulfilling promises effectively, and setting reasonable expectations.

How To Create A Hybrid Trade Show Booth

in

Trade shows are back in full swing! However, the past year and a half of event cancelations have resulted in an attendance dip. This drop could be due to anxiety over health and safety procedures or just because they do not want to make the trip to an expo show anymore.

Whatever the reason, it is going to take a lot to get your prospective clients engaged during this year’s trade shows. Just because in person attendance might be down, that does not mean you are limited. One of the best ways to get your clients engaged and interested is to create a hybrid trade show booth!

Creating Hybrid Trade Show Booths

A hybrid booth is when you feature engagement opportunities in person at your trade show as well as online! The key to setting up a successful hybrid booth is to strike a good balance between in-person and virtual experiences.

Get Organized

Your first step to creating a hybrid booth is to get your information in order. Make sure you have an organized and easy-to-use online catalog of services and products you offer. This will be a helpful and easy-to-reference resource for your potential customers and clients to reference.

Creating Engagement

Once you get your information organized, then you can begin developing your engagement opportunities. Have short informational videos available online that are also able to stream on monitors at the event. Live stream from your booth. Host a short webinar for your product or service for your in-person visitors and stream it on your social media accounts.

Get creative with your hybrid events and find the right ones that fit for your business!
