In the sales game, the right visuals are more than just eye candy — they’re your secret weapon. And nothing slams the point home like a video walkthrough tour of your completed projects.
Whether you’re in real estate, construction, or any trade that involves space and structure, mastering the art of the walkthrough tour can catapult your closing rates through the roof.
Let’s dive into how you can leverage this dynamic tool to not only show off your projects but also seal the deal with confidence.
Why Video Tours?
Picture this: your potential client is considering several options. They’re flipping through brochures, scrolling through photos, and yes, yawning through some not-so-great sales pitches.
Now, enter your dynamic, engaging tour of your latest project — using dual camera mode.
This isn’t just another piece of collateral. It’s an immersive experience that places your client right in the middle of your best work.
Building Rapport with Personalized Content
Video walkthrough tours do more than showcase a space; they create a personalized experience that can build rapport before you even shake hands. By guiding a prospective client through a project with the narrative tailored to their needs, you subtly communicate that you understand and care about their unique preferences and challenges.
Making a Lasting Impression
A well-executed jobsite or home walkthrough video serves as a powerful visual testimonial of your capabilities and attention to detail. It’s about making a lasting impression, showing your potential clients not just what you’ve done but how you’ve done it.
This visual journey can highlight the intricacies and craftsmanship that might go unnoticed in static images or blueprints.
Best Practices for Creating Compelling Video Tours
Creating a video that captivates and convinces can sound daunting, but with the right approach, you’re set to make a mark. Here’s how:
1. Plan Your Route
Before you hit record, plan your walkthrough route. Highlight key features and plan the order in which you’ll show them. Think of it as storytelling — each step should build on the last and lead seamlessly to the next.
2. Keep It Steady
Invest in a gimbal or stabilizer for your smartphone or camera to keep your footage smooth. Shaky videos can distract from the beauty of your work and make the experience less enjoyable.
3. Light It Right
Natural light works best to illuminate your space in a flattering way. However, ensure the area is well-lit to avoid grainy or dim footage. The goal is to present a clear and inviting picture.
4. Add a Personal Touch
Consider starting or ending your video with a quick introduction or conclusion delivered directly by you. This can add a personal touch and connect the viewer to a real person behind the camera.
5. Give Context
These videos also give you a great chance to stop and share more details on why a certain area requires more attention and time or highlight your craft and creativity. Even if it’s “bad news” delivering it to the client while they see your face eases their anxieties about what’s next.
