10 Recommended Books on Video Content Marketing

10 Recommended Video Marketing Books

Books on (Video) Tape to Help You Hit the Ground Rolling Next Year

By now, video is probably a key element of your content marketing strategy. 87% of marketers use video in some capacity. And 93% of marketers say they’ve landed a new customer after implementing video marketing on social media. Video also boasts a sky-high ROI – and its potential is only growing as more marketing professionals discover how video factors into their content marketing. 

That said, video content marketing is completely different from traditional content marketing heavily centered on design or copy. So if you’re feeling uncertain, inexperienced, or totally lost when it comes to video content marketing, you’re not alone. Plenty of others have navigated this new landscape. Some of them even wrote books about it – and some of those authors have become renowned experts at video content marketing. 

Here are 10 video marketing books we recommend for you whether you’re just starting on your content journey or you’re looking to fine-tune your existing plan.

1. Instabrain: The New Rules for Marketing to Generation Z

by Sarah Weise

2. Stories That Stick: How Storytelling Can Captivate Customers, Influence Audiences, and Transform Your Business

by Kindra Hall
