In Deloitte’s “[State of AI in the Enterprise](” survey report released earlier this week, one theme broke out amongst the rest: AI + video marketing = revenue. “One creative use of AI is its application to video marketing. That use has delivered revenue gains for Duvora, a technology provider that specializes in digital marketing for luxury real estate,” writes editor Rodric Bradford. Citing Duvora’s move to introduce a new AI-driven video platform for home tours as an example, Bradford offers [tips on how video marketing and AI can work together in the time of COVID-19](. He recommends the following best practices for using AI to power your video marketing: - Vary the videos. Whether you are showcasing a beach house in Boynton Beach, a penthouse on Park Avenue, create distinct options in your video content to help AI learn through contrasting outcomes. - Review the repeat visitor. Repeat visitors often behave differently the second time around. Use AI to study the differences and generate revenue by personalized follow-up and outreach. - Forget the photos.
