GoVideo enables sales professionals, executive leaders and customer support teams to easily record personalized videos and add them to their email conversations
KITCHENER, Ontario – January 10, 2017 – Vidyard, the leading video platform for business, today launches GoVideo Enterprise, a business-class edition of GoVideo, the free video-recording tool that makes it easy for organizations to embrace the power of video for personalized communications.
“We all hate getting those phone calls that disrupt our day, or those impersonal emails from automated systems. So we built GoVideo,” says Michael Litt, CEO and co-founder of Vidyard. “GoVideo re-humanizes this type of business communication. It helps sales reps and other business professionals quickly create personalized video messages which are then available to their recipient, on-demand. It’s a win-win for all.”
Video creation has been slow to expand beyond marketing departments because it can come with high costs, complexity, and significant time commitments. With GoVideo, it’s simple for anyone to create a video, share via email, then track its success. Whether you’re prospecting and selling, spreading employee announcements, training, providing customer service, or supporting a new product launch; in today’s workforce, video drives engagement. Customers have used GoVideo’s simple solution in many unique ways across their organizations, including:
“It’s important for our sales teams to connect with customers on a personalized and authentic level,” says Bob Elliott, senior vice president of global sales at Hootsuite. “Many of Hootsuite’s sales professionals use GoVideo Enterprise to create fast, customized personal videos that stand out and bring the human element back into the sales process. GoVideo makes this process as easy as a click, record, and share.”
According to Marketo, when sales and marketing teams align, they see a 67% improvement in close rates. GoVideo Enterprise drives this alignment by giving sales teams the ability to record custom videos and access their existing marketing video libraries directly from their web browser or email client. This way, they can easily send video content directly to prospects along with a personalized introduction.
With built-in tracking powered by the Vidyard platform, video creators will know who is watching what, and which video messages resonate with viewers. They’ll receive immediate playback notifications that will eliminate the wondering of whether the recipient received or watched their content. They can then prioritize leads according to viewing history which is then pushed into existing customer relationship management (CRM) systems and other business applications. Video viewing data appears in context of other prospecting interactions including previous calls, notes, and emails for a holistic view of customer engagement.
GoVideo Enterprise offers extended functionality to GoVideo, the free, screen video-recording tool for Google Chrome, that gives anyone the ability to create, send and track video right from their web browser.
