Corporate video is a marketing strategy that works when done well, but can damaging if you pick the wrong production companies London has to offer .
If you want a product that hits the mark and has good value, you need to make smart choices. Finding the best production companies London has to offer should therefore be a top priority.
FIND THE REAL DEAL
The London video production market can be overwhelming.
With camera gear easily accessible and new companies popping up each week, how can you tell who is the real deal and who’s faking it?
Anyone can set up as a corporate video maker, whatever their skill level, and it causes a huge problem for businesses trying to sift the good from the bad.
Of course, a good place to start is online. You can glean a surprising amount of information from doing even a cursory search.
What do their clients have to say about them? Have there been any complaints? Are there video samples you can see?
You can take a look at any testimonials they may have on their website, check out Google reviews or other social media channels and it should give you a good feel for how they operate.
SEPARATE THE TALK FROM THE WALK
What one company says costs circa £5K, another might only quote £500.
So how can you tell whether the £5K company is taking you for a ride, or the £500 company is going to deliver a poor quality end product?
At Holler we base our prices on the logistics of creating your video – how many days filming, editing, or the graphics you need to get the job done.
We always aim to land within your budget, we have no hidden fees and the price we quote is the price you pay. No nasty suprises.
HITTING DEADLINES LIKE THERE’S NO TOMORROW
Another area to look out for is their track record of turning projects around quickly and hitting deadlines.
This is one of the major failings for many video companies and can be frustrating to say the least. There is no real excuse for not reaching deadlines that have been agreed on.
We’ve heard horror stories of projects still not delivered a year down the line – it’s totally unheard of in our offices!
We like to get your project edited as soon as we can after shooting. Providing you can get all the approvals sorted on your end, we could deliver your final files that same week.
If you’re searching for the best video companies London has to offer, take your time. Ask plenty of questions and make sure they are transparent about what/when they are delivering.
