Video productions for your online marketing

Videos for social and advertising

What are video productions for online marketing?

I do not see a video as an isolated end product. I look at the story you want to tell and the place where someone encounters it. Video productions bring together visuals, content and online marketing. An engaging video may attract attention, but its message also needs to fit your audience and the next step you want viewers to take.

I approach video through my experience in video creation, content and advertising. I distinguish between what a video says and how it reaches people. For me, a useful production starts with a clear message rather than the greatest possible number of effects. What should someone understand, remember or feel ready to do after watching it?

My approach: from idea to online use

I view video productions as a process involving pre-production, production and post-production. Preparation centres on the concept, storyline and schedule. Production concerns the footage; post-production brings visuals and sound together. This structure helps clarify expectations and avoids leaving important decisions about the content until the very end of the process.

My marketing experience also makes me consider the connection with other communications. A video in a social advertising funnel has a different context from content on your website. I want to avoid a video promising something different from the page viewers visit afterwards. That is why I connect video productions with content marketing and the wider customer journey.

Tools and channels

At Sales Marketing Coach, my video creation work included Sony Vegas and Adobe Premiere Pro. This combination of creative production and online marketing informs how I think about video. I like to distinguish between the tools and the objective: software supports the story, but it does not decide what your audience actually needs.

Distribution deserves attention too. My experience with Meta Ads and Google Ads helps me consider video as more than a creative file. I can place the content in the context of paid campaigns. For social distribution, this service connects with social media marketing; for the overarching decisions, it connects with strategy.

Who is this service for?

I focus on organisations that want video to be part of their online marketing, rather than simply commissioning an attractive file. Perhaps you want to explain a message more clearly, or connect your content and advertisements more effectively. In that case, it makes sense to discuss the role video should actually play before choosing the format.

You do not need to arrive with a fully developed plan. I am happy to explore the content and channels relevant to your organisation. At the same time, I keep the scope clear: experience with video advertising is not the same as producing an entire film. The examples below therefore explain exactly what I did in previous assignments.

Experience and examples

At Sales Marketing Coach, I worked as a freelance Google Ads Specialist / Online Marketeer. My activities included video creation using Sony Vegas and Adobe Premiere Pro, alongside design and blog writing. That combination connects content creation with the online environment in which the content will be used.

At Milieu Service Nederland, I was an interim Online Marketing Specialist. I built a funnel strategy for social ads and created images and videos for it myself. This is a concrete example of video supporting a marketing approach rather than being treated as a separate deliverable.

At Valtech, I worked as an interim SEA & Social Ads Specialist. For ASML, colleagues and I were responsible for paid Google channels, including Video. This example concerns video advertising; I do not present it as an assignment in which I produced the film footage.

Recommendations

And then a colleague leaves, and his role needs to be urgently filled, while you're in the midst of a global GA4 transition... Pieter has provided excellent support to Ansell in the past six months during this transition, not only by setting up the right measurement points, by creating dashboards, and by sharing data insights for the regions, but also by making a substantial contribution to the successful launch of the webshop in Europe and by sharpening analytics for the webshop in the US. At the same time, he helped to find the right 'permanent' colleague and to get her started in Ansell's complex digital ecosystem. I can highly recommend Pieter and will not hesitate to call on him again if I need support in aggregating and visualizing (online) data.

Pieter is an energetic and enthusiastic marketer who was quickly up and running within our team. He has strengthened us well in the field of advertising and SEO!

Yes, of course
