What is personalized video?

A personalized interactive video gives you the opportunity to send personalized videos to your customers.

As an example, the following data can be used to make this information more personal:

  • Gender (M/F)
  • Location – country, region, city or even company network
  • Device – PC, laptop, mobile, tablet
  • Search terms – which keywords or combinations were used
  • Visitor frequency – has the visitor visited your website for the first time or have you visited it before?
  • Business sector, number of employees
  • Referrer URL – via which website the visitor came to your website
  • Customer history – has the customer purchased anything from you before?
  • Visitor behavior – page views, clicks
  • Own CRM data


1. Personalized text

Address your customers in the video by welcoming them personally. Go one step further by using the customer data. For example, explain an invoice with the actual data of your viewer instead of fictional figures.

2. Personalized images

It is also possible to display images that are tailored to the viewer. For example, you can show images of previously purchased products or a photo of an account manager that the customer has already met.

3. Scene segmentation

Ensure that viewers get to see the scene that is relevant to them. Film different family situations, or actors with different ages, and show your viewer the video in which the situation shown evokes the most recognition.

Why is personalized video so effective?

Personalized video is one of the most effective ways to bring personalization to your marketing and sales. There are a number of reasons why personalized videos are so effective:

1. Responding to desire

People like personalization. Consider, for example, the suggestions that Netflix and YouTube make based on videos that you have previously viewed. Personalized videos unconsciously give the person who sees them the feeling that he / she is in control of this. In addition, personalized videos ensure relevance because the content is focused on a single person. For example, you provide them with information they are looking for, based on the data that you have previously gathered about their search behavior.

2. In person

As a continuation of the previous point, personalized videos play on one of the basic principles of sales. By personalizing you speak to people directly. For example, an e-mail without a salutation appeals less than “Dear Frank”.By naming your prospect by name in the video, you show that you have taken the time and effort to delve into them. They will certainly appreciate this extra effort.

3. The human element

A potential customer sees online a lot of different content through different channels in search of a solution for his or her problem. All these expressions compete for the attention of your potential customer.

Ultimately, the form that touches and entertains the most wins. The combination of image and sound makes video extremely suitable for entertainment, especially if you make the video personal.
