GOOD TO KNOW

Three ways video helps with PR

1. Video boosts engagement in social media, earning more clicks and more eyeballs than posts that merely consist of text.

2. Video is easily shared with news outlets, who are always on the lookout for content that readers might click and share around their networks.

3. Video can attract new fans for your organization by giving them an opportunity to see your culture, hear your leaders, or experience what you're like "behind the scenes."
