Online video continues to explode and businesses now have the opportunity more than ever to promote their products and services and reach customers. It's become essential for businesses to incorporate social media marketing into their overall marketing plan, and video is one component that has become more crucial than ever. Also, with the development of affordable content creation tools and the solutions available from online video platforms, you don't need to be a high-end video producer to create and distribute professional-quality video.
