"Sussex is where the good times roll—and your business’s marketing should, too."

Let’s face it: Sussex is a stunning place to live and work, but with so many businesses competing for attention, standing out takes more than a clever tagline. So how do you make your business the talk of the town? The answer might surprise you: video marketing.

Here’s why every Sussex business, from that charming seaside tea shop to the innovative Brighton tech startup, needs a marketing video:


1. Video is the King of Engagement

It’s no secret that people prefer watching videos to reading text. But did you know that viewers retain 95% of a message when they see it in a video, compared to just 10% when reading it? If you want your message to stick in the minds of your customers, video is the way to go.

2. Video Tells a Story Like Nothing Else

A well-crafted video can show off your brand’s personality, values, and unique selling points in a way that text simply can’t. Think about it: would you rather read a dry product description or watch a fun, informative video that shows your product in action? Whether it’s highlighting your team, showing off your workspace, or demonstrating how your product works, video brings your story to life.

3. Video is Highly Shareable

Create a video that people love, and watch it spread like wildfire. Videos generate 1,200% more shares than text and images combined. In other words, a great video is free advertising! When your Sussex video production content is shared on social media or via word of mouth, you’re reaching new customers you never would’ve reached otherwise.

4. Video Boosts Your SEO

YouTube is the second-largest search engine in the world, and guess what? Google loves video, too. By creating high-quality videos and optimising them with the right keywords, you can improve your search engine rankings, attract more organic traffic, and increase your visibility online.

5. Video is Fun to Make!

Let’s be honest—creating videos is a blast. It’s a chance to get creative, experiment with styles, and showcase your business’s personality. Whether you’re filming your team at work or capturing a customer testimonial, video allows you to have fun while making something that can help your business grow.
