Bideo Launch Offers the Best Way to Get Bids from Video ProsBideo, formerly Big Video, today announced that the most comprehensive and easiest-to-use marketplace of video pros is now online and accessible to anyone needing video production anywhere. The company needed a better solution to get quotes on video production jobs-so it built one. Now, the marketplace is available to anyone at bideo.com. Use of video is skyrocketing Video has become a mainstay for marketing and other communications. Cisco projects that video content will make up 80% of Internet traffic by 2019. An Animoto survey indicated that more than 60% of businesses planned to increase their investment in video marketing last year. Hubspot documents that including a video on a landing page can increase conversion by 80%. Why Bideo is needed Finding and hiring the right video professional is a time-consuming process. According to Bideo President Dan Chipman, "There are a lot of production jobs that require a professional, and finding the right one is not easy. We know, because we have spent countless hours scouring Google (News - Alert) to recruit videographers for our clients around the world. After going through the tedious online search process of identifying videographers and comparing bids for over six years, we finally decided to create the platform we always wanted. It has been a game-changer for us." How Bideo makes it better Bideo eliminates the hassle from hiring a video pro. With Bideo, all you have to do is enter the type of video you need, and the location where you need it. The system will then serve up a list of profiles for videographers whose skills and location match your needs. Ratings, reviews, portfolio samples, and hourly rates make it easy to compare and contrast options at a glance. Requesting a bid is as easy as clicking a button. Alternatively, you can post a job and the system will automatically request bids from professionals who have the skills you need, where you need them. Because the videographers pay us a commission to match them up with good production jobs, using Bideo costs you no more than using an exhaustive Google search, but is so much easier. Plus, our satisfaction guarantee eliminates any risk associated with hiring someone online. Who can benefit from Bideo? Virtually anyone with a need for video production can benefit from the Bideo marketplace. From start-ups, to mid-sized companies, to large enterprises-even those with internal production resources often have remote production needs. Typical projects include Kickstarter videos, marketing/advertising, testimonials, live event streaming, corporate communications, animated explainers, interviews, drone video, and weddings. Kimberly Brooke Norman, VP of Marketing of the Exit Planning Institute, stated this about her first experience with Bideo: "We host an annual summit with about 300 of our top clients. Not only did Bideo immediately rally and make all of the coordinating efforts [with a last-minute change of city], they did it with very little need from us. Frankly we had an incredible few days… we couldn't have asked for a better resource." What if a full-service option is preferred? Sometimes customers may be better served by a full-service, concierge solution. For example, what if a scenario requires multiple videographers in multiple locations? In those instances, customers can choose to consult with one of the company's experienced project managers for an additional 15% fee. About Bideo Bideo (formerly Big Video) has been handling remote video production jobs on behalf of a diverse group of clients since 2009. Bideo's goal is to map the entire video production market, depict it clearly to the customer, and make ordering video production as simple as possible.
