Using this natural phenomenon, video works wonders to convey your marketing message. Seeing is believing for your target audience. Using video, you become real to them. Everything in business is based upon a trustworthy relationship. The more videos you create, the more you put the minds of your target market at each.

Your customers like to feel as though they know the people operating the businesses with whom they are dealing. They want to know that the businesses they trust are run by real people who are not just out to make money. Looking inside the business and looking into product creation are just a few of the ways to build a relationship with your audience.

• Especially amongst 18- to 30-year-olds, Instagram and Snapchat continue to be very popular ways of connecting with businesses.
• Marketers continue to connect with their prospects using text and apps. (Think about President Trump! He is a regular Tweeter!)
