Videowise April’s Highlights

If you’re an eCommerce store owner, you know how important video content is nowadays.

It’s not a secret anymore that video is a powerful tool that helps your brand communicate better with its audience through its store, website, social media platforms, and more.

At Videowise, we believe video commerce is the future of acquisition and added revenue for brands and retailers, and that is why we’re on the road to creating automated features to help you customize video commerce experiences and get the best results out of video content.

In this blog post, I’ll walk you through the details we discussed in our first newsletter launched this April, such as the latest updates in Videowise, customer spotlight, events we’re attending, and much more.

Let’s dive in.

What's new in the Videowise app?

Here are some of the main features our team has worked on in the past month.

Call to Action Feature

The call-to-action (CTA) feature is an excellent tool for driving conversions. 

With Videowise, you can customize your CTA to match your brand for a more personalized experience. You can also tailor CTAs to mobile and desktop for a consistent visual experience. Moreover, you can track the performance of your CTAs to gain insights into how effective videos are at driving specific actions.

Global Styles Feature

Setting the style for quizzes and interactions can be time-consuming. That’s why we created the Global Styles feature. 

With this feature, you can set the style for quizzes and interactions once, and every interaction will follow the same style. Like CTAs, you can customize the style for mobile and desktop for a consistent visual experience. The feature also helps you maintain the store's consistency to reinforce your brand identity.

Background Video

Background videos can create an immersive and engaging experience for the viewer.

It provides visual interest and an overall ambiance to draw the shoppers into the shopping experience. In addition, with Videowise, you can automate compression to set a resolution as low, medium, or high.

Events we've attended

In April, the Videowise team attended the eComm Live - Powered by IRP, Ireland's leading eCommerce event, held on 26-27th April 2023, at Assembly Buildings Conference Centre, Belfast.

We hope you managed to join and enrich your knowledge with great insights from the industry’s leading experts.

If you missed it, you’d the chance to meet our team at the biggest eCommerce event with international brands, retailers, agencies, and software providers at Shoptalk Europe at Fira Gran Via, Barcelona, between 9-11 May 2023.

This event was an excellent opportunity to learn more about eCommerce trends for 2023 and network with like-minded professionals.

Customer spotlight

Dr. Squatch is an excellent example of how video content can enhance a brand's marketing efforts. 

The company creates all-natural soap for men. As the company grew, it sought a video solution to help them deliver an immersive and interactive shopping experience. 

That’s when Dr. Squatch found Videowise.

With Videowise, Dr. Squatch created engaging videos that made its business stand out and increased its conversion rates.

Today, the company continues to use Videowise to create compelling videos for its shoppers. For example, Dr. Squatch uses a captivating video carousel for the homepage that viewers can watch without clicking through an external platform. Additionally, the company uses picture-in-picture videos for the key store pages to create a seamless user experience.
