Adrian Sandmeier works with marketers (marketing managers, communication specialists, entrepreneurs, CEOs) on a daily basis. For many of them, video marketing is a new field in which they are not yet, or only insufficiently, familiar. They focus on details in video marketing and often forget the most important aspects. They are already thinking about implementation without having defined a clear goal or target audience beforehand. They lack a strategy. Many marketers come to us without a clear plan regarding content or video strategy. Without a defined approach, a lot of resources and money are wasted.
"I would like marketers to have a strategy that will help them to successfully implement their ideas in video marketing."
Adrian Sandmeier
