One of the most compelling ways to convert website visitors to leads is with online videos. Before visitors pick up the phone to call, they want information on you and your law firm. Informative professional videos can help.

If done right, you can build a relationship and create trust with your potential client’s before they even meet you. As some Florida attorneys have a bad reputation among the general public, video production allows you to establish a trustworthy, transparent and authentic voice. You can’t accomplish this with any other form of attorney advertising.
In past years, attorney’s marketed themselves using Yellow Pages, TV commercial spots, classified ads, brochures, radio and billboards – local online marketing has triumphed all of this. The Internet has given attorneys the ability to be seen as professional, receive referrals and keep clients coming. Attorneys get to do this by using what they are good at – their skills of personal engagement. It’s the forward-thinking attorney’s though that are adopting the most powerful online marketing tool – video services.
VIDEO MARKETING TIPS FOR FLORIDA ATTORNEYS
VIDEO MARKETING TIPS FOR FLORIDA ATTORNEYS
Always Offer Useful, Honest Information
There is a recurring theme when it comes to attorney video – most have poor content, they don’t provide useful information and most importantly they don’t understand what their online viewer is looking for.
Why would anyone look for a law firm online anyway? Often times they don’t know an attorney and they don’t know someone who can refer them either. They would rather search online to see if someone can help solve their legal problems. The people that are going online to watch an attorney video are doing so because they have a problem and they are looking for someone to solve it.
How can you be the one that resonates with them? In the first place, the viewer has to be able to find the video, be interested enough to play it and watch it in full and lastly, they have to be so compelled that they call for more information. Let’s review each.
POTENTIAL CLIENTS MUST FIND YOUR VIDEO.
POTENTIAL CLIENTS MUST FIND YOUR VIDEO.
Even if your video production is technically perfect, if nobody can find it, you’ve wasted a lot of time. This is something called VIDEO SEO – where we can help optimize your video for search engines. This can be done with compelling, relevant titles, descriptions and keywords that make sense for your business and what your customer is looking for when they begin their search online.
Just because a prospective client is able to find your video doesn’t mean they will watch it. Unless you have a relevant headline and description, nobody will click on your legal video. The only people interested in watching your law firm video are those seeking an information source or those who have a legal problem and are searching for an attorney to solve their particular problem. The type of videos you are creating shouldn’t be expected to go viral as they don’t fit the pattern for widespread viewing. A video doesn’t need to go viral in order to be watched and in order to meet your objectives. That being said, a legal video that is unwatched translates into wasted marketing dollars that is why hiring a video production for events is very important.
This is where your analytics come in. It’s important to evaluate so you can know what you are doing right and more importantly, what you are doing wrong. If nobody is watching your video until the end it is probably not compelling enough and you should consider starting fresh.
It’s unfortunately thought that attorney’s talk too much and don’t listen enough. This is not how you want to come across in your video or you may lose your viewer forever. Although Miami attorneys consult and give advice for a living, the video producer should guide and control the attorney to ensure the right message gets across. It takes an experienced video producer to know what a targeted online viewer is looking for and how to get the attorney to convey a message that will resonate with that audience.
If you are an attorney offering your services and you are using legal video to market those services, it is highly suggested that you don’t focus the video on yourself. A viewer who takes the time to search for an attorney and doesn’t know you is looking for someone to help solve their problem. If you talk about yourself too much, you are giving them reason to look elsewhere. The only way to get a viewer to take action (pick up the phone and call) is to create a compelling video that helps solve your viewers’ problem. Without giving any legal advice, explain how you can solve their problem and offer information that nobody else in your field is providing online. Give the information for free and viewers will be compelled to call you for more information.
