The Top 5 Video Trends for Influencers in 2019

Influencer marketing would be nothing without video, and the medium continues to expand. Expect these trends to dominate 2019:

1. Video First

Facebook popularized this term, and it holds that customers not only want to watch video, but help produce it. Video First increases engagement and produces more conversion.

2. Live Video

Facebook was the first to introduce live streaming – expect it to grow in popularity in 2019.

3. Square-Shaped Videos

Instagram is the most popular influencer marketing channel, so square shapes will continue to dominate.

4. Cost Reduction

Making effective videos will be more cost-effective than ever, thanks to new technology. Expect businesses to use more videos as producing high-quality pictures becomes cheaper.

5. Video as Conversion

In 2019, expect video to help consumers down the funnel and lead to conversion itself. This medium creates better engagement with clients and provides the perfect forum for achieving your business goals.
