I am not one to hype up social platforms or apps, but when I find something I see as an opportunity for the people that I love, then yes, I get a little over excited like I am this morning when I discovered Vine. And their tagline is awesome: Make A Scene, well thank you Vine, I think I may just do that.
This new social video sharing app launched by our friends at Twitter, is being called the Instagram of video and works very much like Instagram; how we capture content, post, caption, use hashtags, like, follow, etc.
The social revolution continues to bring so many awesome solutions for the professional beauty biz. This is one of them. Just think about what you can do sharing 6 seconds of video on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube and your website.
Here are just a few opportunities I see:
1. Capturing cuts, colors and styles
2. Introducing a new team member
3. A quick tour of the salon
4. Introducing a new service or product
5. A super quick how-to
How do you see yourself using Vine for business?
Here is a super cool video from Mashable which takes you through the Vine app. It’s super quick and very informative. Watch it.
Photo and video sharing are here to stay and give you so many opportunities to share your work, deliver more value on your social + digital pages and help you become a more discoverable business on the Web.
So my challenge to you today is to download the app, start capturing video, and share it. (If you have an iPhone of course, as its not yet available on Android.)
