Brightcove Audience Makes Video the New Foundation of Modern Marketing |

BOSTON, Jul 29, 2015 (BUSINESS WIRE) —
Brightcove
Inc.

BCOV, -2.52%

the leading provider of cloud services for
video, today announced general availability of Brightcove Audience, a
new feature in the Brightcove
Video Marketing Suite (VMS) that connects video analytics directly
into Oracle Eloqua and Marketo marketing automation platforms, captures
leads, and translates video engagement data into contact tracking, lead
scoring, and customer segmentation. This feature allows marketers to
achieve better results by turning their video content into
highly-effective lead capture assets. The Brightcove integration is
certified by Oracle and is available in Oracle
Cloud Marketplace. Marketo customers can access the Brightcove
integration in Marketo
LaunchPoint.

Quantifying the Impact of Video in Modern Marketing

Brightcove Audience enables marketers to directly incorporate video
analytics into their marketing automation platform to quantify and
measure the impact of video as they would with any other marketing
asset. In just three clicks, Audience allows marketers to log into their
Oracle Eloqua or Marketo account directly from within the Brightcove
Video Marketing Suite, track video engagement data from Brightcove
players, and begin sending data to their marketing automation platform.

Benefits for marketers include:

Lead capture in the video player – Brightcove Audience gives
marketers the ability to configure and add lead forms into the video
player to capture lead information before, during or after the viewing
session. This feature turns the most engaging piece of marketing
content into a highly-effective lead generation asset.
Track engagement from any video player location – Audience
includes the critical ability to capture leads and track video
engagement data from any location where a Brightcove player is
embedded, whether on a company website, marketing landing pages, or
third-party sites.
Insight on audience engagement with data and analytics –
Audience associates video engagement data, such as name of video,
percent watched, and who watched it, with a specific contact record
and sends it to Oracle Eloqua or Marketo to inform lead scoring,
segmentation, nurturing, and sales and marketing follow-up. Unlike
simply tracking the download of a PDF or whitepaper, tracking video
engagement reveals how much of the content a contact consumed.
Integration with Gallery for page level insight – When used
with Gallery, Brightcove’s video portal publishing tool, Audience
enables marketers to track page level analytics to understand how
individual contacts interact with all video content throughout the
customer journey. This information also connects with marketing
automation platforms to provide a broad view of the customer
interaction and complements data from specific videos.

Supporting quotes:

“Marketers know that video is the future of digital marketing, but they
have not had a solution to quantify video’s contribution to marketing
and sales. Brightcove Audience solves that problem by measuring video
engagement and collecting that data in a marketing automation platform
like any other marketing asset. Using Audience, marketers can now see
the specific data in Eloqua or Marketo that confirms what they already
intuit – that video is the most effective and compelling medium to
attract, engage, and convert audiences.” – Linda Crowe, Vice President,
Digital Marketing, Brightcove

« Our video strategy has grown each year we’ve been a Brightcove customer
– and using Audience, we can now quantify and measure video’s impact.
What stands out about Audience is how easy it is to use. We gate our
product demo video so that once 20% of the video is viewed, the customer
is presented with a lead form embedded in the video, which then flows to
Marketo. If someone watches to that point, we know they have a good
level of interest. Additionally, we value that from a customer’s
perspective, the embedded lead form looks clean and professional, and
from a marketer’s perspective, we believe the seamless experience will
increase our results.” – Jerry Trudell, Manager, Demand Generation,
Hyland, creator of OnBase
