This year, Vyond is dealing you in with a full deck of 52 ideas for better business communication. Next up: vlogging!
Vlogging has come a long way since its inception during the early days of YouTube. Still not sold? Ask the 22,000 YouTubers with over a million followers!
No matter where you’re sharing video content, vlogging can teach us some invaluable lessons about building a personal connection with our audiences. When we share our own experiences and document compelling stories, we can engage viewers in impressively impactful ways.
Even if your goal isn’t to become a viral vlogger, you can co-opt the vlogging style with video content that tells a story. Businesses can learn a lot from vlogging in particular about creating serialized content and crafting consistent messages throughout their content. Even internally, vlogging can be an exciting medium for communicating with your team: from telling customer stories to sharing company updates.
With Vyond Studio, you can take your videos to the next level with dynamic animation and mixed styles. Here are four ideas to get started:
- Travel Vlogging
- LinkedIn Cover Stories
- Food Vlogging
- Animated Interviews

3. Food Vlogging
Food has a magical way of bringing people together. Why not use it to bring you closer to your audience? With themes of community, story, and pleasure, it’s no wonder that culinary content is among the most popular genres around the globe. Capitalize on the trend to build a personal connection with your viewers, even if you’re not a food expert.
In 2020, we created a series of food-related videos to help connect us to the broader Vyond community as part of a year-end promotional campaign. You can watch the full series here!
