Everywhere you go throughout the country there seems to be a healthy supply of office space available for rent. Some small, some large, some serviced offices and some virtual offices, but nevertheless there's an abundance out there. All of this empty space needs to find an occupier and without doubt - this is a competitive business.

If you are an office space provider, are you aware of the many benefits that can be achieved by including a short video of your office space in your website?

With the cost of maintaining an empty office space becoming a growing concern, along with the number of commercial properties for rent increasing at the rate of knotts, it's extremely important to take advantage of all the marketing options available. Of course traditional printed collateral plays its part, alongside general website promotion and various other online and offline promotion, but with the new, faster broadband speeds, viewing videos online is a far more effective and pleasurable experience.

What are the advantages of including video as part of my overall marketing strategy?

- Shows the property in a way that just isn't possible with still images alone.

- Shows a realism that can make that property stand out from others.

- Can include local amenities in the video which not only conveys the property, but also the location of nearby parks, shops, restaurants, coffee bars and lifestyle facilities (golf clubs, gyms etc.).

- Can give you an important advantage over your competitors.

- An excellent way for potential clients who are geographically compromised to gain a realistic insight into what the property offers, prior to their journey to view.

- Makes your office space rental company look up-to-date using modern marketing strategies.

- A buzzing office environment which is already part-let can be portrayed much more efficiently with the use of video. Busy offices, popular coffee shops and communal areas can all be shown to great benefit.

- Finished videos can be uploaded to YouTube and other social networking film sharing sites free of charge, for additional, highly valuable promotion.

The finished videos can easily be integrated into your current website and multiple videos showing various office developments would not be a problem, as file sizes are not large. There are some really attractive media players that can be utilised, again showing your company to be stylish and forward thinking with its marketing.

As the cost of technology has come down over recent years, so has the cost of producing high quality, website ready videos. In the past, incorporating video into an overall marketing strategy would not have been something that everyone could have considered, but now with costs being far more manageable, and the advantages so great, it's well worth serious consideration.

He recommends using the Office Space For Rent Directory which includes video in many listings of the various Uk office provider companies. Serviced offices, virtual offices and managed office space are all in the directory.
