Truth be said, text content in a website do not offer interested users and potential customers a chance to provide competent and helpful feedback that could have offered options and opportunities for the organization to learn and improve upon the products and services the users commented on. This is another of the main advantages that are exclusive to video content marketing as it helps to create a feedback loop with the customers or users.
