4 Ways Personalised Video Can Help You Create Wow Moments

Do you wow your customers? It may sound like a funny question, but the value in regularly creating wow moments – the moments that make a customer stop in their tracks and feel valued, heard and understood – cannot go understated. These are the moments that build lasting brand-customer relationships. 

But how is it possible to deliver individually relevant wow moments in the digital age? SMBs and enterprise companies alike face the challenge of satisfying, at scale, customers’ desire for face-to-face, personable, human interactions. It sounds like a tall order, but emerging technologies like Personalised Video leverage customer data to intelligently craft the most uniquely relevant video communication and deliver it to customers in real-time or near real-time. 

Keep reading to see 4 ways Personalised Video can creatively deliver wow moments when it matters most…

1. Create an experience that leaves a lasting impression 

One of the charms of Main Street the customer experience is knowing that you’ve made a human-to-human connection with a brand representative. They know your needs and expectations, your personal details, a little bit about your lifestyle perhaps and can naturally adjust their communication to suit all of these factors. 

As commerce moves away from Main Street and towards the digital space, it grows increasingly difficult to replicate these personable interactions. Through the use of Personalised Video, an opportunity is created to wow customers with visual and data-driven communication that’s individually tailored to their unique brand experience. It’s the closest thing to a 1:1 conversation you can get digitally and at scale. 

Plus, Native Personalised Video creates a touchpoint that people remember positively because the information contained therein is so relevant and the personalised elements are seamlessly integrated to ensure cinematic quality. Instead of adding noise to an inbox or social feed, PV uses the latest customer data to always be informed as well as informative which is why it drives 4X brand recall.

2. Clearly show that you’re delivering the savings and benefits you said you would 

Do your customers always know when you come through for them? It’s easy to notice perks like free shipping or complimentary in-home service calls, but what about the benefits that don’t have an obvious impact on every day brand experience, but rather accrue over time? 

This question is especially relevant within industries like insurance, telcos and finance, as well as for loyalty clubs, where special plan perks are frequently more impressive when looked at collectively rather than granularly. You might not consciously realise you’ll be receiving 5% cash back every time you take your car for a fill-up, but viewing the savings that occurred over a month can look impressive. 

Using Personalised Videos to highlight earnings and savings not only makes customers feel good about spending their money with a particular brand, it encourages them to spend more so they can continue to save. Purchases are emotional decisions. When you’re leveraging Personalised Video to show each and every one of your customers specifically how you’re creating solutions in their lives, that’s a wow moment. 

Tesco Clubcard launched a Personalised Video campaign, with the help of creative agency Signal Productions, to show their loyalty members how many club points they’d earned, and also shared exciting ways the points could be redeemed. Click here to see how they did it..

3. Enhance those “just because” follow-ups and turn them into opportunities for cross-selling and up-selling 

In the Main Street era of commerce, it was common for follow-up to occur after a sale or even an initial meeting had taken place. Whether over the phone or face-to-face, these interactions created an opportunity to strengthen relationships, deepen engagement and build a path towards loyalty and future sales. In the digital space, it’s hard to recreate this important and innately personal touchpoint across a business’ entire list of leads and customers. 

Some marketers have turned to automated drip campaigns as a solution, but generic emails don’t go very far to make customers feel like they’re understood and individually valued. 

This is where Personalised Video campaigns open the door for more personable, unique and relevant out-of-the-blue experiences that can be generated and delivered at scale, and that have increased engagement by up to 2X for major brands utilising PV technology. Whether PV is used to turn a lead into a sale, to follow-up after a purchase or even as a vehicle to sell other uniquely relevant opportunities, businesses can rely on it to always leverage the most up-to-date data to deliver wow moments that drive action. 

4. Delight with easy setup and added-value content 

Personalised Video uses all types of customer data to determine what specific content will be shown to each viewer – it’s not just about adding someone’s name to the beginning of a video. Companies know exactly what an individual’s purchase history has been within that brand. They know what services that person is signed up for, what products they recently bought. 

Armed with all this info, it becomes incredibly easy to create campaigns that add value to the customer experience. What types of content are considered to be valuable? Think along the lines of how-to videos that show someone how to set up an online account or how to build a complex product. They can also be instructions for how to get more enjoyment out of something – information on product-related groups customers can join in their area, DIY ideas and product hacks. 

Personalised Videos can act as an “easy button” during the set-up process, making on-boarding a breeze through visual instructions and account or product specific details. They can also make enjoyment of a product or service more robust by introducing perks someone may have not even realised existed for them.

How Video Is Driving Customer Communications

Marketers have been turning to video for years to overcome the challenges of text communications. Video is more memorable, shareable and engaging — and people love it. It accounts for the vast majority (over 80%) of all consumer internet traffic. But video technology is changing. Previously, brands used video mainly to communicate big messages. Think of splashy branding campaigns or ad spots to raise awareness. Because video was expensive and often hard to produce and update, it rarely found its way into day-to-day customer communications. Not so anymore. Video doesn’t have to be generic for a broad audience. It can be timely, interactive and deeply relevant for current and prospective customers. One of video’s greatest strengths is its ability to convey tone, body language and emotion, making customers feel truly connected to your brand. This makes it a powerful tool for building meaningful relationships and delivering exceptional customer service. By

How To Create Personalised Content (Without Making It Creepy)

Brands today face a complex challenge when it comes to personalisation. On one hand, customers have grown more and more concerned over how businesses are using their information, stressing the importance of data security and privacy protections. On the other hand, they’re also demanding tailored experiences that cater to their individual needs and preferences. It’s confusing and contradictory — but also not surprising if you consider our history. Cinema offers a great metaphor for this. Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rear Window” opens with the raising of a curtain. This is a tribute to classic theatre — a raising curtain has been shorthand for “the show is about to begin” for centuries. However, something is a little different here. These are not traditional theatre curtains, but rather a window curtain. This, of course, raises the question: What kind of show would be watched through a window? A voyeuristic one. The Dual Nature of
