Leverage happy customers to build your brand with user generated videos
User generated videos engage followers and build trust with prospects in an authentic way. Boast helps businesses collect user generated videos to use for sales and marketing efforts.
Why you need user generated videos
When it comes to social media marketing, authenticity matters. Followers want to engage with brands that feel personable and native to the platform they’re on. User generated video content allows brands to connect and build a following in a way that feels natural.
Benefits of UGC videos
Social proof
Prospects are more likely to trust and use a product or service that other customers are already using. User generated content is a powerful tool that demonstrates social proof.
Native content
Engaging prospects and building a following requires authenticity. By engaging customers to provide user generated videos, brands can leverage UGC to build an online presence that feels natural and native.
Grow your following
People want to follow brands that are down-to-earth and relatable. User generated content is one way brands can create an engaging online presence and attract a strong following.
What is a user generated video platform?
User generated video platforms help organizations request, collect, organize, and share UGC videos. Brands can then push collected videos to their social channels or website or download the videos to use in advertisements and marketing materials.
Why you need a user generated video platform
While it is possible to run a UGC campaign on a single social platform, using a hashtag, or manually, it’s typically best to use a platform designed for collecting UGC videos.
This will give you the most control over the content you collect and how it’s distributed.
The best user generated video platforms allow you to create custom video capture forms, manage consent from submitters, own the rights to submitted content, and set up processes for sharing your user generated videos.
