Offer practical, actionable advice
People who want to start leading a healthier lifestyle are looking for practical tips and advice they can put to use without a significant investment of time or money. Video marketing for doctors and dental clinics should be concise, engaging, and filled with practical tips viewers can put to use in their daily lives to give your audience exactly what they’re looking for. Explainers, how-tos and tutorials, and FAQ-style videos are all excellent types of videos for the health and wellness niche.
Shine brighter with good lighting
If you want to create a healthy lifestyle video that stands out, good lighting can make all the difference. Your audience needs to see what you’re doing clearly, including where you’re placing your legs and other positioning details. If lighting is poor and your viewers can’t clearly see what you’re doing, they’ll keep scrolling. You don’t need expensive studio lighting; a few quick video lighting tips can go a long way:
- Use natural light to your advantage. Position your smartphone or camera by a window and position yourself in front of it to light your face.
- Avoid backlight. Don’t film with your camera facing a window, or your shots will be dark.
- Try a ring light — you can find inexpensive versions that even attach directly to your phone.
Customize and edit your footage for a polished, professional video
While you can film yourself preparing healthy recipes or sharing healthy living tips and share it across your social media networks as-is, you’ll get better results in the form of views, completions, and engagement if you customize and edit your video. That doesn’t mean you have to spend thousands of dollars to hire a video production studio for effective video marketing. With Vimeo Create’s free healthy lifestyle video editor, you can add captions and descriptive text, create seamless transitions, add filters, customize colors and fonts, and more to create a polished healthy lifestyle, dental tips, or health advice video that looks like it was created by a professional production studio.
