Video Is No Longer Optional — It’s Essential
If your brand isn’t showing up in video, do you even exist?
That's the exact question that's been on our mind lately.
B2B marketers have spent years treating video as a ‘nice-to-have’—a side project when resources allow.
But here’s the thing: your buyers don’t read like they used to. They read less...and less...
More than ever, they watch.
If you’re still clinging to PDFs and blog posts while your competitors are flooding feeds with compelling video content, you’re already losing the fight for mindshare.
B2B buyers are consuming video more than ever.
They want content that’s engaging, human, and easy to digest.
Now that we agree that video is crucial to your brand’s success, let’s address the elephant in the room. Scaling it.
In the past, video’s been a bit of a time suck. It’s also been harder to pull over for smaller, scrappier teams due to resource constraints.
AI has changed that.
The roadblocks that once made video a daunting task, like endless editing, high costs, and the need for pro-level skills, are disappearing…fast.
Video is the battlefield now, not the tactic.
The brands that master it win mindshare, dominate conversations, and become the default choice.
The ones that don’t? They disappear.

Before diving in, see Devin Reed's strategy to repurposing content.
Workflow #1: Turning expert interviews into thought leadership content
The objective
Transform internal knowledge into high-value video content that builds brand authority and engages your audience.
Resources needed
- Subject Matter Expert (SME)
- Video conferencing tool (Goldcast, Google Meet, or similar)
- Video recording capability
- AI video processing tool (Goldcast, Descript, or similar)
The problem
Your smartest minds aren’t on your website.
Every week, your company’s most insightful conversations happen behind closed doors—in meetings, calls, and Slack threads.
And instead of capturing and amplifying that expertise, most brands let it disappear into the void.
The brands that win mindshare don’t just market—they document.
They take these everyday conversations and turn them into binge-worthy content. And AI makes it frictionless.
Expected outcomes
- 1+ long-form video with SME insights
- 3+ short-form video clips for social media
- 1 blog post summarizing key takeaways
- Increased thought leadership credibility and brand trust
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Identify your topic and SME
- Choose a topic and make sure it aligns with your audience’s pain points.
- Select an SME with hands-on experience and strong insights. This can be an internal or external person.
- Give the SME a brief outlining interview expectations.
Step 2: Conduct the interview
- Record a casual, conversational discussion.
- Use AI transcription tools like Goldcast to capture key takeaways.
- Ask open-ended questions to help spark engaging answers.
Step 3: Process the recording
- Upload the video to an AI-powered tool like Content Lab for automatic transcription.
- Extract key moments, quotes, and timestamps.
- Use AI to generate captions and auto-trim highlights.
Step 4: Content creation
- Repurpose the video into multiple content formats:
- Long-form video for YouTube or blog embedding.
- Short clips for LinkedIn, Twitter, and other social platforms.
- Blog post summarizing key insights.
- Email snippets featuring SME quotes and takeaways.
Distribution strategy
- Publish the full interview on YouTube and embed it in a blog.
- Share short clips across LinkedIn, Twitter, and email newsletters.
- Use SME quotes in email marketing and sales outreach.
- Repurpose key takeaways into a carousel post or infographic.
Workflow #2: Turning QBRs into customer spotlights
The objective
Turn a quarterly business review (QBR) into an engaging customer success story that shows real-world value and impact.
Resources needed
- Customer Success Manager (CSM)
- Participating customer
- QBR slide deck
- Video conferencing tool (Goldcast, Google Meet, or similar)
- AI video processing tool (Content Lab, Descript, or similar)
The problem
QBRs have powerful success stories and are jam-packed with insights that could help build trust with prospects, but they typically remain locked in private conversations. The other issue is that traditional case studies often feel scripted and impersonal, missing the authentic voice of the customer.
Expected outcomes
- 3-4 short-form customer spotlight videos per quarter
- 1 long-form success story blog post
- Increased credibility and social proof for sales enablement
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Prepare for the QBR
- Go over the key metrics and success stories in advance.
- Identify specific customer wins that show off impact.
- Brief the customer on the spotlight opportunity and the win-win nature of it.
Step 2: Conduct the QBR with content in mind
- Ask open-ended questions to get more valuable insights:
- What were the top challenges before using our product?
- What results have you seen since using us?
- What unexpected benefits have come up?
- What advice would you give to others considering this solution?
Step 3: Process the recording
- Upload the QBR recording to an AI-powered tool for transcription like Content Lab and highlight extraction.
- Identify key customer quotes and impactful moments.
- Use AI editing tools to trim and enhance clips.
Step 4: Create multiple content formats
- Customer Spotlight Videos: 2-3 minute highlight reels featuring key takeaways.
- Blog Post: A detailed success story featuring customer insights.
- Social Snippets: Short clips and testimonials for LinkedIn and Twitter.
Distribution strategy
- Share spotlight videos on LinkedIn and company social pages.
- Add customer stories to the website’s case studies section.

Workflow #3: Repurposing Technical Discussions into Sales Enablement Assets
The objective
Use the technical discussions and product demos from your team and turn them into digestible content that helps decision-makers understand your solution and accelerates the sales cycle.
Resources needed
- Technical implementation expert or product manager
- Video conferencing tool (Goldcast, Google Meet, or similar)
- Screen recording software if your video conferencing tool doesn't have one (for the demo)
- AI-powered video processing tool (Goldcast, Descript, or similar)
The problem
When technical buying committees don’t have a clear grasp of implementation details, the sales process drags on, and deals get stuck—or worse, lost. Standard sales materials often fall short, leaving buyers with unanswered questions about how the product actually works and whether it’s easy to adopt.
Expected outcomes
- 3-5 short-form technical explainer videos per quarter
- 1 comprehensive product walkthrough video
- 1 implementation guide for sales enablement
- Faster deal velocity and less technical objections
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Identify the top technical topics
- Choose your topics based on common buyer objections or FAQs.
- Review sales calls and support tickets for recurring themes.
- Select a technical expert to walk through these areas.
Step 2: Record a technical demo
- Have a screen-share demo explaining product features and integrations.
- Focus on ease of implementation, security, and scalability.
- Capture before-and-after use cases to highlight key benefits.
Step 3: Process the recording
- Upload the video to an AI-powered tool like Content Lab for transcription and highlight extraction.
- Find and segment key moments.
- Use AI editing tools like Content Lab to trim long discussions into bite-sized clips.
Step 4: Create multi-format sales enablement assets
- Short explainer clips: Answer common technical objections in under two minutes.
- Long-form video walkthrough: Comprehensive guide for in-depth evaluations.
- Implementation guide: Step-by-step breakdown for easy onboarding.
Distribution strategy
- Upload explainer videos to your website’s resource center.
- Share short clips via LinkedIn and email nurture campaigns.
- Include implementation guides in sales proposals and RFP responses.
- Provide technical walkthroughs for customer onboarding sessions.
Workflow #4: Converting Customer Advisory Board (CAB) Meetings into engaging product updates
The objective
Take insights from Customer Advisory Board (CAB) meetings to create compelling product update content that keeps customers engaged and informed.
Resources needed
- Customer Advisory Board members
- Product team representatives
- Video conferencing tool (Goldcast, Google Meet or similar)
- AI-powered video processing tool (Content Lab, Descript, or similar)
- Email marketing platform
The problem
CAB meetings can generate really insightful discussions around product direction, customer feedback, and roadmap priorities, but this information often stays confined to a small group. This then means that broader customer segments miss out on key updates, leading to misalignment and lower engagement.
Expected outcomes
- Monthly or quarterly product update videos
- 1-2 minute highlight clips featuring key customer insights
- Increased customer engagement and product adoption
- Reduced support tickets related to feature misunderstandings
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Prepare for the CAB meeting
- Set a clear agenda focused on major product developments.
- Identify the most pressing customer concerns and feature requests.
- Brief CAB members on the recording and content repurposing plan.
Step 2: Capture key insights during the meeting
- Record roadmap presentations and customer discussions.
- Encourage CAB members to share their experiences and feature priorities.
- Note key success stories and implementation challenges.
Step 3: Process the recording
- Upload the full recording to an AI-powered tool for transcription and analysis.

- Identify feature explanations that need additional clarity.
Step 4: Create multi-format product update content
- Highlight video: 2-3 minute summary of key updates and customer insights.
- Short clips: Individual soundbites addressing specific product improvements.
- Product update email: A concise overview featuring video links and next steps.
- FAQ doc: Addressing common concerns raised during the CAB meeting.
Distribution Strategy
- Send product update emails to all customers with embedded videos.
- Post short video clips on LinkedIn and customer community forums.
- Share detailed updates in a monthly newsletter.
- Include feature explanations in onboarding materials for new customers.
