Webinar Wrap up: Questionmine/Kentico EMS – making video actionable

Thanks to everyone that attended!
By 2015, 90% of web traffic will be video (Cisco). That’s cool... but what do you know about who is watching YOUR videos? How are you customizing your prospects' website experience based on their engagement with your videos?

Watch this webinar to learn how Questionmine and Kentico have teamed up to help Savvy marketers who demand to know more than just "who clicked on my video?"

At the most basic level, Questionmine provides video hosting and a killer set of video analytics integrated into your Kentico EMS installation. When these two are combined they create instantly ACTIONABLE marketing data. For example, easily allowing customization of website content and marketing efforts based on an EMS activity like the length of time a video was viewed.

For marketers that want to take their videos to the next level, the Questionmine Kentico EMS integration allows you to:

Generate leads by adding lead capture forms at any point in a video.
Qualify leads by adding questions that appear during the video.
Customize website content and marketing efforts based on how prospects and leads answer questions during videos.
Drive Ecommerce by including call to action buttons during video such as "Buy Now" or "Add to Cart".

Updated HOL: Kentico CMS 7: Custom table: Creating and Display available now

This is an updated lab. Thanks to everyone that provided feeback.

Kentico CMS provides custom tables as a way to store and manage custom data. Technically, they are SQL tables and coupled stored procedures. Once a custom table is created and contains data, the next step is to provide a display for site visitors. In this lab we will add a custom table and then use the Basic Repeater web part to display it on a page. We will also look at how to use the Kentico CMS API to add and edit an existing item.
