As content marketers we spend a lot of time creating articles our users will love.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could repurpose those articles into new formats automatically?
In this series we’re going to look at how to convert your articles into other formats your readers love in seconds.
This time we’re going to look at video.
Listen to a summary of this article:
Video is an important part of any content marketer’s strategy. We all know that posts which contain video engage many more users than either plain text posts or even posts containing images.
Indeed, social posts which contained video generated over 12 times more shares than text and images – combined.
However, producing great video content is often extremely resource intensive, requiring dedicated teams and specialist software to edit together videos for a story.
What if there was an option to create great video content quickly and cost effectively, with hardly any changes to your existing editorial workflow?
Well – thankfully due to advances in machine learning, AI and cloud video production it’s now possible to create great video content that readers love in seconds.
