2. Create and share great video
The best way to ensure a top-notch customer experience is to share helpful and interesting videos. Of course, a lot of businesses are strapped for time and cash. That means you probably don’t have time to come up with a video concept, script it, shoot it, edit it and share it on YouTube. Not worry. There are alternatives.
Create a photo slideshow
If you hosted an event or celebrated a milestone, you can take several still pictures with your smartphone and turn those photos into a shareable slideshow with tools like Picasa or PhotoSnack.
Create an animation
You don’t need Disney Pixar’s animation team to create a cool cartoon, (although wouldn’t that be great?) all you need is GoAnimate. This online tool will help you create whiteboard animations or cartoons for your canada phone number list channel.
Shoot a few snippets of video with your smartphone and use video templates to make a movie with WeVideo. The premade video templates up the quality of your production. Plus, this tool comes with a simple video editor to make changes.

3. Use annotations to add a call to action
Just like every email needs a clear call to action, so does every video you post on your YouTube channel. You can put a clickable call to action on your video by adding an annotation. Check out the screen grab below. See the box on the bottom left? That’s an annotation. When it’s clicked, the viewer is taken to the product website.
To add annotations to your videos, just go the Video Manager and click Annotations from the menu under Edit.
You’ll have a few annotation types to chose from:
Speech bubble: Add comic book speech bubbles
Note: Semi-transparent box
Title: Add a bold title box
Spotlight: Frame a spot on your video
Label: Create a label for a certain part of your video
