Why ElectrifyMedia?

At ElectrifyMedia, our passion has always been about delivering the power and reach of online video to all businesses – big and small. It may sound crazy, but when ElectrifyMedia Productions launched (Imageine Video, initially) in October 2004, YouTube didn’t exist yet! Much has changed in 8 years:

YouTube has 4 Billion videos views per day
Facebook has over 845 million users posting a billion items every day
On Facebook, videos are shared 12X more than links and text posts combined!
Twitter has over 465 million users tweeting 175 million times every day
Google+ has 90 million users and adds 635,000 new members every week
Instagram is adding 10 million users every 10 days
Foursquare has more than 15 million users and is growing 50 percent year-over-year
Pintrest has nearly 19 million unique users visiting the service every month

Consumers and customers love video – seek it out – and share it actively across their business, personal and peer networks (Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+). Savvy marketers observe that at every stage of the customer lifecycle, video and social media can help integrate and increase the impact and ROI of online marketing efforts. But first, marketers must overcome considerable complexity. With more device types, fast-changing technologies, a multitude of social channels, and cross-platform consumer behavior data to account for, managing cost and time-to-market is a constant challenge.

We can help. We’ve helped dozens of small and medium businesses succesfully work the web – navigating Google, YouTube, Facebook AND Twitter. Most important – we’re applying and mastering the same Inbound Marketing (also known as “Content Marketing”) strategies and practices ourselves. With “Visual Inbound Marketing”, ElectrifyMedia’s in-house creative design and video production team is your “secret weapon” to push your online presence to the highest level. Your competition will think you’ve doubled in size and never know what hit them!

Management Team

Michael Higashi – Executive Producer/VP, Visual Inbound Marketing

Veteran technology marketing executive, and founder of ElectrifyMedia Productions, Michael’s expertise spans 20 years of creative visual communications for Silicon Valley technology companies’ corporate communications and sales enablement. “The message is always king. Whether that message is promoting a service, capability or product, it must be instantly recognizable and experienced by the viewer,” he says. “Absent a compelling story, all the visual imagery, animations and motion graphics have no reason for being.”

Ron knows that the biggest challenge other than uncovering and distilling the message, is communicating the story to the audience in the most engaging, effective way. His advanced skills in visual user interface design and user experience are born from years of creative production mastery. Photoshop, Flash, FinalCut ProX and AfterEffects are essential, industry-standard tools ElectrifyMedia’s team uses for the same high quality production look and feel of network television. “Imagery and storytelling must support the messaging in every rich media piece,” he says. “There is a story to be told in every aspect of life and all industries. We just need to find it and light it up on the screen.”

Matthew Nelson – Scriptwriter/Content Marketing

Matt’s expertise lies in his unique ability to translate complex ideas into clear, precise, and approachable terms. He believes that effective writing tells a story that engages the audience. “When I write, I start by researching,” he says. “I gather all the information I think I will need. Then I work to put myself into the mind of the audience – I try to understand their perceptions and attitudes. If I have to roll up my sleeves and try out the process or product I am writing about, I don’t hesitate. I go ahead and do it.”

Matt has worked in Silicon Valley for many years, having worked as a journalist at Information Week, InfoWorld and other publications, as well as a writer and editor for Oracle’s Brand and Creative department.
