Giving out videos becomes more crucial at this point in time also because brand videos influence 84% of buying decisions.
These are the times where the audience is looking out for something better amongst the traffic. Sending out videos that aid them in the process of relishing the product/ service more is what adds more value. Like if you are a trip advisor and giving out add ons like discounts and perks for an upcoming trip. You could send out something like how to be more prepared and things like that.
