TESTIMONIALS

“What a great experience working with InnVideos.tv. We are extremely pleased with the final result. Our guests love the personal connection the video offers. I would recommend this for everyone.”
- Frank Salvo, 1889 WhiteGate Inn & Cottage

 

Innvideos provides an incredible opportunity for us to showcase our Inn and the response from our guests has been very positive. (The Innvideos.tv) Innkeeper approach…is unique and allows us to provide a personal sneak peek of who we are and what we offer.
- Brenda J. Merrefield, Inn on Church

I booked seven nights the very first day and the guest told me it was because he watched the video and heard my German accent. I am getting so many calls from guests that say they feel like they already know me…that is very special to me. Thank you, Innvideos!
- Gerda Angevine, Owl’s Nest Inn and Engadine Cabins

We felt our web site represented the inn well, but we realized we wanted to tell our guests about us. This is what our inn video does and it helps our guests know what we and they will experience every day.
- Larry and Nancy Merrill, Applewood Manor Inn Bed & Breakfast

There are so many B&B choices and the (innvideos.tv) video is a great way for guests to get a feel of our Inn. ...guests who tell us it’s their first time staying at a Bed & Breakfast (say) the video really conveys our comfortable atmosphere.
- Terry and Bill Erickson, Hill House Bed and Breakfast

Tips & Tricks

This section will provide tips on the use of video…the why, where, what, when and how of video marketing. This will be an important guide to innkeepers to reveal to them the basics and the techniques of using their InnVideo. Each “tip” will be accompanied by a “clip” that give the innkeeper a visual example emphasizing the direction we believe best supports the suggested tip.

The first “Tip” is the very heart of the video. I know you are thinking about your inn and of course it is the central focus of your business, however the heartbeat of your inn is YOU! Think about it this way…if you moved across the country and began operating another property would your new property take on your personality? Of course it would. So here’s the first tip.

The Innkeeper Should Be in the Video

This is the chance for you to tell your story about your inn and engage your next guest. Believe it or not the guest wants to know about you. You don’t need to be in every frame, but your presence makes it personal and you warm up the technology. Your website is the primary tool you use to connect with your guests and it needs to be less sterile and more warm and proactive. This is exactly what video will do for your website. Here is your opportunity to share your heart, tell your story and personally invite your next guest. This “clip” or video is a good example of the innkeepers interacting with each other and how they connect with guests. Watch here.
